    Help with a OIL LEAK

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    If there is oil coming from the turbo, but no car does not smoke whatsoever. what does that mean? does it mean the turbo is going bad or somehting is loose causing the turbos to leak oil externally. There was also oil found in the intercooler as well.

    Any help is appreciated

    sure the oil isn't just leaking onto the turbo? Like the cam adjuster seals/ VC gaskets....

    Re: Help with a OIL LEAK

    how much oil is leaking into the inter cooler, and is it leaking to both? the seal to your turbo is bad meaning you need to replace the turbo

    A little oil in the intercooler hoses seems to be normal. If oil pours out your screwed.

    yeah, that's not good... like AMC said, a seal probably went shitty in one of the turbos.
