Guys so i have question for ya.

I noticed that when my car idles for a few min i start burning oil and it smells bad in the car. I popped the hood and the turbo is covered in oil and there is even oil on the coupler that connects the IC pipe to the turbo. Is the ******* thing blown or what???

 

Are you blowing turbo seals?

 

I dunno **** just started today man. Never had this happen before

 

Im guessing its a turbo seal. Another member I was talking to sorta had the same thing happening to him and it was a seal.

 

to much powa! Jk Are you blowing lots of smoke out the tail pipe?

 

When im driving no. When im sitting there idling it starts piling out.

But why is there oil on top of the coupler??

 

Check the oil lines coming out of the turbo body itself. There's one on the back and one on top. Perhaps one of those seals are leaking

You'd be lucky if that were the case. Those're an easy fix.

 

damn man GL

 

Ill check it out in the AM. But then its goin to the dealer on my lunch break. Awesome thing is that they know whats done to my car but are cool about it. Love CED haha

Thanks man.

 

ya to have oil on top I think it is. Line leaking.....

 

MEE!!! and yea it was the turbo seals. You can either have it rebuilt or buy a new one..i opted to buy a new one personally.

 

How much did it run ya?

 

Hey bart if you need another K04 let me know

 

Car is at the dealer and its lookin like everything is getting covered under the powertrain warranty. Good ****

 

You go to rockenbock??

 

Yezzir

 

UPDATE!!!

just got a call from the dealer saying that theyre putting in a new check valve (reason for oil being in my IC pipes??) and a new TURBO and all covered under powertrain....

CED has good people workin there i guess. They dont care for the mods on the car.

 

Impressive

 

Rockenbach Chevrolet in Grayslake, IL is where CED lives. Tom and the crew are great!

 

You are correct. I work 10 min from there and live about 30 miles but its well worth the trip to get great service.

Although at first the service writer was a dick but then Tom and Dan talked to him haha
