I have many 3.0L turbos, and they are interchangeable with 3.5L's in W126's, but not in W140's. I have one I'd like to swap out if anyone has one with a known good seal. This one works fine, and feels pretty tight, but is passing black oil stains through the crossover. Is seal replacement pretty easy? What would it cost for a rebuild of my turbo assuming if cant readily find one?

Or a turbo cartridge? I'm assuming this is a garrett T3. What would be the price of a replacement cartridge?

Any advice here? The turbo works fine, but passes oil through the crossover pipe. Can I just replace the seal?

You'll probably have more luck in DD... as for me, I have no idea.

Ran across this on my local CL. It's extremely vague but possibly something you can look into if nothing else comes along.
