I'm not suggesting you should cut your turbo in two Scotte but if you did it would be a bit like this. I'm sure you know how they work but it could help show where your oil is going if a seal is failing. If it fails completely it will happily use the rest of your oil and starve the engine. I'm not sure about the coolant but presumably something similar could happen.

My concern is that you could run your car and have a problem escalate quickly and cause damage to the engine.

Just trying to help, hope I'm not scaremongering.

I think my car got too close to yours and caught the same disease.
Or maybe its just all Toms fault.
First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a socialist.
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.

Hopefully they'll be some investigative works at the weekend Paul and we'll know exactly what is wrong.

The only petrol turbo car I have had was a company Saab and Mr S looked after that.
So I really can offer no advice and as I shall be away from the w.w.w for a bit more than 24 hours! I will not be able to congratulate you immediately when you have resolved your problem.
Hope all goes well for you.

Ive told your wife that about you but it seems the English have a little more perseverance than some other Eurpoeans.
I think I'll follow you wifes example and give the car just a little more time.

Intercooler with a small ammount of oil in it. Rich has a theory about that.



And the fubar turbo this is the intake side.
Zoom in nice and close to see some wonderfully bent blades.
