200tdi turbo oil? help

(1/1)

paranoid android:
hi earlier this week i took my air filter out to replace it found oil leaking from the turbo into the air filter, not alot of it but i was adviced thats the turbo oil seal going? and if im not careful i know it can become catastrophic? well i know its bad but i was thinking does anyone else know about this problem, is it common, does it need attention immediately? and whats a good price for a re-con or mine to be re conditioned? all help appreciated
 thanks

bertie_bas205:
It's more than likely to be the breather putting oil into the air filter.. The air filter is before the turbo. If theres a heap of oil in the inter cooler i'd be more concerned. Is yer 200 a high milage beasty???

Tommo:
yeah i wouldnt worry about it. Will be fine.

paranoid android:
well theres enough oil going through the air filter to look suspect, but my 200 is on 123,000 so its early days but i will check the intercooler and come back to you, thanks for the help.
