chr15_7_t_ Posted February 23, 2010 Share Posted February 23, 2010 been hapenin for a few days now...im not 100% sure it is the turbo im just asuming it is as the noise only seems to hapen when im at about 4/5psi... im stil geting full boost and holds though but it whines from 4-11psi dosnt whine below 4psi.i thought it might be an intercooler hose not tight so i had all my pipes off last nice,gave them a clean then put them back on this morning and made sure they were tight.dunno if this will help but on my way home from work today one off the pipes blew off..i will say that it has got a bit of a dodgy jublee clip thought as i tightnd it to much then it went back(if that makes sens)..the pipe that blew off was the one with the dodgy clipanyone no what this could be?

DavidAshton Posted February 24, 2010 Share Posted February 24, 2010 So you have found oil in or on the cold side of your intercooler pipework?If its on the inside id think a serious turbo issues as it would have blow oil all the way through you intercooler.But you have said you took your air filter off to find oil on the cold side? Taking your air filter off shows you the turbo, not your cold side pipwork? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
chr15_7_t_ Posted February 25, 2010 Author Share Posted February 25, 2010 i dont no anything about turbos tbh..the oil was in and around the air filter side of the turbo... but today i also found it in the hard pipe of the turbogot another turbo on the way now anyway lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
