sohcVTEC-E Posted June 29, 2006 Share Posted June 29, 2006 You should never have an oil leak. Change the line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
..SSR.. Posted June 29, 2006 Share Posted June 29, 2006 If its coming from the turbo you have a bad seal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grizzled Posted July 13, 2006 Share Posted July 13, 2006 ...theres oil leaking threw the inlet pipe of the turbo. now is this normal, bad, manufacturer defect, or what. please help me out. Make sure your oil return line hangs no lower than the nipple going into your oil pan. If it already is above it then what these guys said.
