Need HELP

Ok i have a coolant leak and i found it. Well its coming from the turbo coolant line i think its the return its the one between the motor and the turbo the hard side to get to and i cant tell if the line is cracked or the banjo fitting is leaking or the crush washer is bad? My question is do i have to remove the turbo to replace the line or the crush washers??????

I found the problem the water line to the turbo was cracked because the bolt was never installed to hold the line in place. So whoever tighten down the line put a crack in it. I think it finally just rub a hole in it.

Ouch that sucks man, I'm glad you found the problem. Nothing worse than not not knowing what the heck is wrong with your car.
