I found a tiny drip coming from above the inter cooler pipe near the bottom hose on the passenger side. Does anyone know where it could be coming from. Doesn't look like its coming from the turbo. Anyone experience it before?

thanks.

 

The turbo does have oil lubrication from the engine to the oil pan, check the tightness of the bolts connecting the lines.

There will be a solid metal pipe from the right hand side of the block just under the valve cover that goes into the turbo as the inlet. Check the tightness of that connection and where it meets the turbo, on the top of the center piece.

Secondly there is an outlet pipe that goes directly to the oil pan from the turbo. It will connect to the bottom of the turbo and to the front of the oilpan.

 

Ok.. i tighten the black hose that leads to the intercooler on the passenger side, where the oil was leaking. Why would oil leak from that point? Is turbo leaking oil into the intercooler?

 

Unlikely. More likely its from the oil outlet on the bottom of the middle section of the turbo. If your turbo was spitting oil into the intercooler you'd be able to see some oil residue inside the compressor housing.
