Fooked Turbo ?

[Chris.L]

I have discovered small deposits of unburnt oil in my intake system in the pipework between the intercooler & inlet manifold.

Does this mean my stock CT20 is on it's way out??

i believe its not uncommon to have small amounts of oil as the breather runs back into the inlet side and would get carried through the turbo anyway Hence why alot of people run breather filters off this to stop it from ahppening.

I may be wrong but i dont think you have anything to worry about, as long as it is small amount.

I take it you have no smoke on or off boost etc??

[Chris.L]

I get a little bit of smoke on start up, thereafter nothing really at all on or off boost

So I should be ok

[Munnsy]

colour of smoke?? blue at all

[Chris.L]

Light Grey if anything!

Some other posts on here suggest it could be turbo oil seals?

[RobCrezz]

small amount is normal.
