Ollieh17 Posted January 23, 2014 Author Share Posted January 23, 2014 and me, and it's really starting to annoy me haha. If the wastegate was leaking at all e.g at the manifold flange or spring always open etc this would be apparent by noise? If there is a boost look after the turbo this would be apparent by noise also? Unless massive and not so noticeable? If its neither of these the turbo must be shagged Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ollieh17 Posted January 23, 2014 Author Share Posted January 23, 2014 Think turbos blown! Alot of oil in the pipes and no boost after removing everything Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ollieh17 Posted January 24, 2014 Author Share Posted January 24, 2014 gonna swap the turbo out tomorrow. Currently have no water lines to the turbo. Would it be okay to leave the water line flanges open on the new turbo or do they HAVE to be blanked? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
