I think its an 'oh dear' moment..... - my-first-306 - 27-02-2015

Hi all,

Fitted a boost gauge on my D turbo earlier, when I cut the boost compensator pipe it was full of oil, im guessing this is new turbo time?

Cheers
steve

nah, they can pass a bit of oil for a fair while and not give up the ghost

it will have just accumulated there over a period of time

if I said its been running 26psi for a while now would you say the same?
I want to fit a better turbo anyway at some point, just don't want it to go pop yet lol

Most of them are the same, it just seems to be their thing. Mines the same

Oh that's alright then Smile

Yeah, mine was the same, standard when I got it with 104k on the clock. I wouldn't worry about it at all. Smile

Could be oil from the breather pipes anywy. every one ive had was the same.

That's alright then hopefully last until I get a new turbo for it Smile

It's probably not the turbo, more the oil breather.

Seem to remember Ruan pulling this pipe off my boost gauge in my car, before being covered in oil as I came on boost.

Oil ejaculate hahahaha
