Hello,

My mate needs some help with his car,

Problem is that Oil is coming out of the bov, and turbo.

the car loosin power and lags.

would anyone know what would be wrong with it?

so far I told him to get a oil catch can..then if it keeps going it could be the turbo.. anyone got any ideas or been through this situation?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you

John

Catch can will help, but depends on how much oil your talking about.

IMHO Id say that the turbo is shagged, but ppl wiser than me might have something else for you to go on.

check your turbo first

Yep I would agree sounds like the turbo goes bye bye

Turbo seals gone.

Installing a catch-can will only exacerbate the problem

How would a catch-can make it worse ?

Turbo seal or ring-lands. If it's ring lands then a leak-down test will show it, if it's turbo seal you'll need to drop the dump pipe off to check.

I had a similar situation many years ago, assumed it was turbo seal, replaced turbo etc, and then discovered it was actually the rings

Catching all the oil in the can and thinking it fixed the issue... however the can will just fill up.... and re-occur....

Thanks for the help..much appriciated.

yeah told him to get a oil catch can..but now he decided to get oil catch can and bigger turbo..hopefully that will fix the prob.

Thanks agian
