oil leak around turbo
 

the story gos like this, i was cleaning my engine bay like usual, and found a small "trace" of oil around the connection of the y-pipe and cross pipe, and some oil around the coupler from cross pipe to ic. is the turbo about to give up? i'm about to open them up this weekend. thanks

Some oil in the intake tract is common the question is how much your seeing. Any smoke from exhaust under boost? That is a better sign of seals in the turbo going. Also....do you mean there is oil leaking outside the intake???? If so I would tighten up those connectors. Oh yeah and wait till ya check the bottom of the IC, there will probably be a small pool of oil there.

:) there's mist of oil stick inside around the intercooler .. i have see a pool of oil in a intercooler before( was helpin my fren out, found out his turbo shot)

Im not sure if my problem is the same way but I just got my Rx7 and when the car is running it drips a very tiny amount of oil but it looks like its dripping from the general area of the turbos. But there is no smoke on acceleration or deceleration and i mean I dont know if it would mean anything but I stuck my finger in the abv hose that runs the blow off air into the air box and I didnt feel any oil so idk. Where else should I check see what the problem is?

Look around the oil inlet lines that screw into the Bearing Housing from the top (one on each side). And also check for leaks coming from underneath the Turbos at the oil outlet lines and also where those lines attach onto the block. Six (6) different possibilities.
