when i first got the car the whole back of the engine was covered in old dired up oil with a minor leak but nothing to talk about. and now its quite a bad one iv heard of them generally being a bit oily down the back but this is redicoulous the amount its losing. it isnt the rocker cover and appears to be below the turbo so im thinking its obviously coming from the head but not necessarily head gasket fairly as i remember both my tu engines leaking oil around the area with out head failure. But also thinking it probably about the way the engine lays backwards too?
Any ideas?
Now on to the turbo. Currently on a k-14 running around 20psi. recently change to a bosch and went to fiddle around with the lda and once i lifted it off load of oil poured out as in enough to dribble every where! and the dump valve is chucking oil out to now so am i right to assume the turbo is dieing?
All this seems to have happened after running on veg.....hmmmmm
Cheers
