Have Done A Search But Need Answers!

[2Gs]

i have a rb25 series2 GTst

hey guys/gals. i have done a search but need a couple of answers.

are teh turbos suppose to leak any oil at all?

if they do, then how much is too much?

is it jsut a sign that the seals are going only or is it a sign of the end?

i have no smoke or anything but i jsut notice some oil coming out the top and also underneath.

its a warranty thing and the dealer is saying its pretty normal and not to worry!!!

thanks and would appreciate comments.

where abouts exactly is it leaking from?

there should be no oil leaking externally of the turbo!

the only oil you might see would be in the piping itself due to the return type system for the breathers on the cams covers ..

yer were is the oil coming from.. i'd say the dealer is tryin to avoid a warranty claim

there is a small amount that seeps out from under the rubber joint on one of the pipes on top, but there seems to be more that is coming from below covering the air con unit.

so shouldnt leak. this would mean i need new seals? yes? is this a big job?

shouldn't have oil leaking anywhere near there..

do a compression test to see if its blow by.. if thats fine then it would be turbo seals
