    Turbo Seal

    I can't have my turbo leaking oil all over the place and in my TIP, already coated my hoses & DV. Is it worth finding a new or used K03s or having the seal replaced?

    Please elaborate more.

    What makes you believe your turbo seals are shot?
    It's normal to see some oil in the TIP as your crankcase breather hose is venting it's oil mist slowly into your TIP and eventually it looks like some oil leaked into there.

    This is oil collecting on where the TIP connects to the turbo. Over time it has covered things in oil. Does everyone have to periodically clean this area for oil?
