    Hello and happy patrick's day to you all guys.

    Just a small opinion of yours on this portion of the engine..and it is located just below the airfilter covered by an air duct connected to the intake (compressor side) of the turbo.
    Just below the air filter; there is a small tiunnel that i couldn't figure out where it is connected to; and It is joined by a common hose attached again to that airduct back to the turbo.... so as the turbo sucks in air; at thesame time it sucks whatever is coming out of that small tunnel and it is oil specifically. Now i already Changed the oil seperator on top of the rocker cover to a vortex type PCV. Bin the toilet roll..

    (Sorry don't know how to attach picture in here. No photo bucket)

    Now; it is normal for it to be always puking out oil into the compressor side of the turbo? Coz when i inspect the intercooler, there was a drop of oil on to it. Several times i have to disassymble that air duct only to discover evidence of oil on it Which it bothers me alot.

    Could it be just be vented out into a catch can to free the intake system of this black stuff?

    Or is that small amount (hopefully) of oil wont damage the turbo at all?

    Any idea guys?
    Thanks for your input...
    Diether
