It's a lot of hassle getting to the back bolts to remove the turbo anyway might aswell just spend your time getting the mani nuts off splitting is just a waste of time it is a pain mate but it can be done

to get the bottom ones mate the one next to the water lines use a ratchet extension and a 14mm socket and for the other side just move the power steering pump and you can get to it

It's not gunna matter how carefully u drive it dude just the engine running is going to do damage it will start smoking loads mate so bad ull probably have to turn it of anyway my friend did it once you couldn't see down the street it was that bad

Well just nip out mate an drop some oil just drop a bit and check the dipstick until its at the right level

Sound mate I wouldn't start the car tho with that amount of oil in bud keep me updated

How long has it been in there and if you drain it into a spotless container and filer it back in with a funnel and a gauz then you can use it again if its still clean and not been in long

Dump the oil mate car on a flat surface start putting it in 3-4 glugs at a time and keep checking once you see it register on the dipstick it will only take a few more glugs to fill it just poor a little and check clean the dipstick and check again until its at the full line run the engine for a while and check again hopefully you might have got away with it your oil pressure will be in the roof

I don't even think it's as much as 4 litre mate I'm sure it's only like 2.5 -3 don't start your engine until you have dropped some oil how long have you been running it with that amount in you have way overfilled it I'm surprised its not smoking like a dry fanny

You put a full 5 litre in and there was oil in it already????

Is it thick mate because the seals on the exhaust side of the turbo makes white smoke also

Sounds like exhaust side turbo seals mate take of your inter cooler piping from the turbo and look in there if there's oil it's the seals

That's looks awesome mate what a piece of kit those welds look immense his work is class

Screw is on top of the throttle body under a rubber bung

That's how it's supposed to idle mate cold start is about 1500 rpm then when warm either 900-1000-1100 ish

Don't think I am mate probably will later on but at min it's staying Got the engine fired up yest and it's running ruff as balls the revs are bouncing but managed to sort that out its misfiring like a good un so gunna change the plugs out see if it stops and it's smoking like a dry fanny but the turbo iev put on was one I had lying about so don't kno if it was caput or not so looks like it is so gotta replace the turbo and see if that cured it ahhhh it's all fun lol

Just out of curiosity mate have you checked the sensor that's at the back of the throttle body because that adjust from side to side undo the screws a little and give it a turn

Cheers gunna try an keep it all nice and origional ish for now lol but I will probably get it kitted when it goes in body shop for a few scrapes and touch ups

If its still doing it then it could be the oil pump as I stated before if its not that then you have a bearing problem I would have thaught

Just take the belts off as stated it will rule out all possibilities of your ancillarys

Ied check mate if I was you when was the last time you looked??

White smoke is normally coolant burning of mate have you checked your water levels latley??

Could be water pump wheel mate try taking belts of and start it up just for a few seconds see if it's still tapping the only other thing I can think of is the oil pump tapping

Yea man bang on that's very much dude gunna give em a refurb when I get chance may change the colour but look bang on for now

Really does sound like bottom end is on it's way out:(

Just a few more pics got oil return feed to fit tmoz and she's all done Hopefully be all up and running for party in the park so I can finally get to a meet
