is it a turbo oil pipe????

Unread post by trooper30 »

Noticed something this morning when putting a new EGR in! The back of the engine, including the old EGR and the surrounding are was soaked with oil, also there was oil sprayed up the bulkhead as if it had been sprayed out under presure!

So am I right in thinking that the only oil pipe down there is connected to the turbo????

Also with my problem of it displying 'Check injection' , then limp mods coming up only when im doing about 85 in 6th on a duel carriageway an at no other time, could it be that these two things are related?????

If the turbo oil pipe has a split and loosing oil under pressure would this effect the turbo when at pressure on a motorway, hence causing it to give the Check Injection fault which also causes the car to go into limp mode and wont go past 2500rpm untill restarted then its fine again!

opinions fellas??

If its really that bad it needs checking out. Be sure to remove and clean the oil drain pipe from the turbo, if this is blocked the turbos on borrowed time. I can't see the connection between high speed high boost that isn't there at low speed high boost engine wise.
