dump valve leaking oil - DTurboTom - 29-12-2013
got this d turbo yesterday and today noticed the dump valve is leaking oil why is this?
the dump vavle make no noise as they should do any help would be great
RE: dump valve leaking oil - WiNgNuTz - 29-12-2013
As said on the facebook group, probably looking at Turbo oil seals. My first port of call though, would be losing the dump valve, as its basically just a boost leak anyway, won't do any favours. Don't run the car for too long without sorting the seals though, or you could end up with it running on its own oil, which is a pretty scary experience!
RE: dump valve leaking oil - DTurboTom - 29-12-2013
dump valve is going then lol so how do i sort the seals out?
RE: dump valve leaking oil - Jimbo - 29-12-2013
Oil is normal due to the.breather going into the air.intake

I'll be honest, that looks ropey as f*ck.
RE: dump valve leaking oil - DTurboTom - 29-12-2013
omg lol so many answers but what answer is right???
RE: dump valve leaking oil - silverzx - 29-12-2013
+1 for remove the dump valve!
RE: dump valve leaking oil - Jimbo - 29-12-2013
Ive had dump valves (years ago)
And they do it.
Put the breather to a catch tank and it will stop, just like theres always slight oil in intercooler etc.
Completely normal
RE: dump valve leaking oil - cully - 29-12-2013
black oily is normal but not in excess
sack off the dumpvalve its a chav thing on a diesel
RE: dump valve leaking oil - Jimbo - 29-12-2013
Agreed with cully
That doesnt look excessive to me.though
RE: dump valve leaking oil - Chris_90 - 29-12-2013
Why not take the t-pice out start it up and see what the quantity of oil is like? This way you can see if it is excessive amount and if it is, look for new turbo, if it isn't then just get a new pipe (turbo to intercooler) put that on all pull all the dump valve stuff off throw it in bin
RE: dump valve leaking oil - cully - 29-12-2013
excessive oil the engine runs away anything less is OK
RE: dump valve leaking oil - DTurboTom - 29-12-2013
i dont no what to do lol :/
RE: dump valve leaking oil - Jimbo - 29-12-2013
Your car your.call but.seeing as its.not working just remove it IMO
RE: dump valve leaking oil - Piggy - 29-12-2013
Remove the piece of chav crap.
Thats what you need to do.
Leaking oil or not...it will be leaking all your boost.
RE: dump valve leaking oil - Jimbo - 29-12-2013
Surely if the Dv spring keeps closed under boost theres no leak??
RE: dump valve leaking oil - Piggy - 29-12-2013
Yeah thats why its as clean as a whistle!
still a waste of metal and engine bay space. Sack that crap off
RE: dump valve leaking oil - DTurboTom - 30-12-2013
dump valve is coming off for sure will this solve my oil problem though
RE: dump valve leaking oil - bigcheez2k3 - 30-12-2013
As has been said, it depends where the oil is coming from. If you have the standard intake piping, your oil breather will be feeding into that.
RE: dump valve leaking oil - Ruan - 30-12-2013
Breather oil probably.
RE: dump valve leaking oil - Frosty - 30-12-2013
When I had a dump valve fitted on mine it had a little bit of oil but no where as much as your getting!
RE: dump valve leaking oil - DTurboTom - 30-12-2013

Probably better just replacing the pipe from turbo to intercooler only be a couple of quid from scrappy and it's only two jubilee clips that holds it on
RE: dump valve leaking oil - DTurboTom - 30-12-2013
night mare to get to the turbo though :/

Jack under sump, undo engine mount on drivers side remove the metal bracket, lower Jack and engine will move forward enough to get to turbo with ease
RE: dump valve leaking oil - DTurboTom - 30-12-2013
il end up breaking some thing lol
il just get a peice of pipe and put it in lol
RE: dump valve leaking oil - Chris_90 - 30-12-2013
Get some one to do it for you then, you not far from Danny2009 or Jenks or I'm close to but you need the pipe.
RE: dump valve leaking oil - Piggy - 30-12-2013
dont need to remove anything...just jack up front drivers side, put axle stand under, get a torch and a jubilee driver or screwdriver and stick ya hand up there...
you can increase ya boost while your at it
RE: dump valve leaking oil - DTurboTom - 30-12-2013
chris i will need to get the pipe and will struggle to get under a scrap yard lol and piggy i have no idea how to turn the boost up im shit with cars lol
RE: dump valve leaking oil - HDIkyle - 30-12-2013
Might have a pipe myself from when i put engines in the sedan as i dont use them. But dont quote me yet as i did have a big clearout not long ago i will check
