hi, i have recently boght a 2002 c5 hdi with 86000 miles on the clock, last week it lost power, it had blown the bottom hose off the intercooler, there is a lot of oil in the pipes & intercooler, does this mean my turbo is knackered? any help would be greatly appreciated,
thanks all.

I am unfamiliar with the C5 motor but certainly quite a lot of oil in the intercooler/pipework is not indicative of problems on any of the older peugeot TD engines regardless of mileage, I would be surprised if I came across a dry one!

BXs since 1993 built 1.9 TZD turbo, got a S2 Xantia estate, brilliant car! 2013, Xantia HDI LX 110 2000 new car with 122,000, l C2 HDI Rusty rocket, C3 Picasso HDI new to me.
All the intercooler pipes on my Xantia TD were soaked in oil.Although at 171k miles it ran sweet as a nut & only needed a cupfull of oil between services.And that was only to stop the level light flashing,as the dip stick level was fine.
I was worried when i first got the car,when i saw the pipes.But that was at 105k miles
