Hi,
I have an oil leak at the back of my engine, its not that serious just annoying as it makes a mess on my drive. when I took for its MOT, the tester said it could be the turbo or from one of the hoses on the back of the engine. If it is the turbo, can you overhaul it yourtself or is it a specialist job??

its not likeley to be the turbo itself, but it might be the turbo oil return which is a simple pipe with jubilee clips, other popular oil leaks at the rear are rocker cover gasket and head gasket, the rocker one is cheap and easy the Head less so, suggest you get the thing steam cleaned and see where its starting from.
