Earlier this month i was at BYT place getting my car tuned. While trying to get my car tuned Nick noticed that i had a bad air leak. Pulled bypass off had alot of oil on it. Pulled charge piping off and that had alot of oil in it. I know that turbos do create oil but there is alot of oil. What could this be thr turbo seal gone bad because they is barely and shaft play. Or the turbo on its last leg.

Thanks
Mike

 

yOU COULD HAVE A TON OF BLOW BY. (check your compression and also check your leakage)

or TURBO SEALS ARE GOING OUT!

 

what are these cars supposed to have for stock compression

 

Depends on elevation!!!!!!!!

 

Have you got a response about your platinum membership yet?

 

 

Well i seen cobaltss.net reimbursed me once and my paypal shows it but i have yet to recieve anything for my other charge.. I did it twice because th efirst time it didnt work...

 

Yep just looked again it shows i paid for two i got reimbusred for one but the other cobaltss.net still shows of taken my money!!!

 

pm speedlimit and tell him the situation, he should be able to work it out.

 

Guessing here but could be a intake manifold gasket leak,I think the earlier SC 's had that problem until they came out with the new gasket.
If the compression is good try replacing it.

 

except he's not an sc lol

 

So your saying a turbo doesnt have a intake manifold Then ?

If your not going to help how about keeping your smart ass remarks to yourself!!!

And adding lol behind everything doesnt make it funny!!!!!lol

 

just do the compression and leakdown test thats the only way to know for sure
but when i was getting my turbo replaced i actually called borg warner and they said that our k04 doesn't have seals on it.....idk sounded strange but they are the ones that make it so who knows

but is the car blowing any kind of smoke???

 

your statement only pertained to a car 4 years younger which isn't applicable to the op's car don't get your panties in a bunch

 

car smokes when nls. It holds boost all the way through. The leakdown test what do you mean buy this.

 

theres really two types, one if your not holding compression you will put a drop of oil in the cylinder. then test again. thats only if you have low compression on said cylinder. you then know if it holds that you have blowby on you

the other one is an air leakdown test. in a way the same as a compression test but you pump a certain amount of air in the cylinder then shut off your air supply at a certain psi, then watch said guage to see how fast it leaks out. or get an air leakdown guage.

i dont know which they were referring to. but i hope this helps
