oil leaking out of the top of plenum

[driftr33]

hi i have oil leaking out of the seal that comes of the plenum its situated just over the top of the rocker cover. iwas told that it could be the oil seal in the turbo shat itself. has anyone encountered this problem before and if so is it expensive to fix.

thanks phil

First thing to do is take some of your intake pipes off preferably near BOV and check for oil.

Check around BOV.

When the turbo seal is gone u can usually see white smoke out the back also oil can form under the turbocharger itself that is a good sign get under there with a torch.!

Hope u havent overboosted it bud

cheers
