Hmmm...
New BNR turbo, very few miles (under 300)
Was out a few nights ago and the car ran wonderfully. Boosted fine, no lack of power. Was going HAM!

Today I was redoing some things in my car and I had to remove some of the piping at the turbo. When I took off the silicone elbow at the turbo outlet, it had a very thick oily sludge on the entire inside. I wasn't that slick, more like a sticky sludge. There was no oil in the piping immediately after. Worried, I looked into the turbo outlet with a flash light and it was bone dry and spotless. Also the inlet was clean if that matters at all.

I don't know what this is, where it came from or what it means.

Any ideas?

 

monitor it weekly, i think your fine, wipe it clean and drive the car normally fo a few days. then check. if nothing try driving it a lil harder and find out if the oil seal is damged or probably still seating. i have a hybrid that did that and now its fine after seating properly

 

Thanks. I figured it could be some more breaking in. I haven't driven it much and when I did, I didn't drive it too hard anyway.

 

You'll be fine unless u begin to notice awesome oils clouds I'm your rear mirrors
