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

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