Hi there,

I'm about to clean my intake manifold, while I'm at it I noticed that there is oil on the line that connects the turbo to the the wastgate (on the turbo side).
I realize that maybe I'll need to change some seals in the turbo. My question is which seals ? Also, Where can I fine a ceramic kit to replace the bearing. Is it a good idea ?

Thanks,
Yossi

There is normally some oil there.....it comes from the crank case vent.....some oil mist does get past the oil seperator and makes it to the intake of the turbo....

Please do check that line for deterioration as if it fails and you overboost protector also fails to work you will boost to well over 20psi and thats bad news.
