Turbo screen bolt 1.6hdi

Unread post by Mksto »

Whats peoples view should you remove the mesh screen on the lower turbo oil feed banjo bolt or keep it in ? Fitting a new oip feed pipe and bolt , seen a video a guy saying it would affect oil pressure for the rest of the engine if removed ?

I'd leave it, why should anyone know better than the engine designers? :)

I'm sure I've read that removal of the mesh screen is recommended to reduce the risk of blockage. Wasn't the mesh actually deleted in later years?
