Basically replaced the turbo on friday and thought all was okay. Had problema today:

>one manifold bolt is missing, to be replaced monday

>have bypassed water lines for turbo, put silicone pipe from in and our port on engine is this okay?

>exessive coolant in pipes still attached seems to be boiling off?

>turbo boosted for a bit, now just makes a squealing/squeeking nose

>exhaust gas is leaking from all the bungs on the decat, lambda hole etc?

>noplay in turbo but seemed to be smoking alot

>temperature gauge is at normal warm temp, but heaters not that warm

>steam coming from radiator? Excess coolant splash back maybe?

Now im real stressing i've seriously fucked something. Wishing i left it as it was. Any help or comforting words would be great haha.

Ok

>have bypassed water lines for turbo, put silicone pipe from in and our port on engine is this okay?

Loop and secure with clips

>exessive coolant in pipes still attached seems to be boiling off?

No problems, why have you removed them?

>turbo boosted for a bit, now just makes a squealing/squeeking nose

What turbo is it why was it run with water? Oil feed ok?

>exhaust gas is leaking from all the bungs on the decat, lambda hole etc?

Try and nip the up abit if no remove and inspect

>noplay in turbo but seemed to be smoking

Oil seals in turbo?

>temperature gauge is at normal warm temp, but heaters not that warm

Was the water system bled?

>steam coming from radiator? Excess coolant splash back maybe?

Don't worry about it unless you damaged it

Now im real stressing i've seriously fucked something. Wishing i left it as it was. Any help or comforting words would be great haha.

Is a ct9 i replaced with a ct9...waterlines were leaking at turbo as one stud on the water feed had snapped, so blocked them off.

Did bleed it by heatets on leaving idling at temp, maybe i need to do it for longer?

Could no boost be down to one bolt missing on manifold??

Also primed the turbo until on came out the return plug! Oil feed is attached but seems to be leaking? Could i have starbed turbo of oil hence no boost and squeeling?

Ahh yeh forgot to tighten one intercooler pipe you just reminded me!! CT9 was second hamd off here. Oil feed maybe leaking as ct9s have studs for the oil feed and then a nut, mine had no studs but replaced with bolts?

If i tighten intercooler pipe and bleed radiator hopefully thats my streas gone. Just a leaking oil feed

What can i do about the slightly leaking lambda bungs. One has a lambda two are bolted up, its the decat i bought off you ben. Lambda is tight etc am i missing a copper seal or something?

Noticed movement in the compressor housing too???

Movement is normal. There will be a relative amount of play in 99% of second hand/used turbos.

Unless the section is literally pulling in and out then don't worry.

Oil feed gasket should be replaced everytime you open it or it will leak, but check your stock oil feed pipe for cracks anyway.

Yeh when i mean play, i mean if i pull the hot pipe it goes backwards and forwards. Anywhere sell the parts ill need locally like a gsf or what not? Guess its a pain as its an import

Did you make sure the bolts used to secure oil feed weren't too long?



The CT9 will rotate, that's normal. Try tighten the clamp between compressor and centre housing.
