Additional information: engine oil was very dark and just like water no viscosity but not milky. I first thought maybe oil has been sucked from turbo bearing. But you're right can be caused by head gasket.

Hi, thanks for the reply. Yes there was some engine and I drained the oil and there was about 4 litre. I live in Baulkham Hills, NSW. Car is in undercover garage and hard to take to a workshop. I want to make sure the engine has to come out then I'll decide to rebuild or replace.

Hi Everyone, Everything started when I was doing 110 on Hume highway and the water temp. went up so I lifted up and cruised until it came back to normal. Then I felt like I'm losing power (my oil temp gauge doesn't work) and as it got worse I rolled the window down and heard clicking noise from engine. I tried to pull over and engine died immediately before I turn it off. There was huge amount of smoke coming from engine bay from all around engine which looked like burning oil. whole process since I felt loss of power till engine died took about 3-4 minutes. Long story short, I towed the car home and next day I went to see what's wrong and a water hose behind engine was exploded and engine was completely dry and engine didn't start at all. I pulled intake out and there's oil every where. once I got to turbo, compressor is floating in oil. Please help me with your knowledge or similar experience. I'm ready for everything being engine complete rebuild with new turbo. please leave your suggestion if I should rebuild, get new rb25 or any other engine and rough estimate for cost I should expect. It's a 99 R34 gtt rb25det neo and I would like to repair and keep the car.
