Oil leak near turbo 850

I replaced my return line flange seal and the rubber o-ring thing where it attaches to the oil pan a while ago (45K miles or so).

Now I have another leak at 142k which looks like it is coming from the turbo itself -- above or just to the drivers side (left when looking at the turbo from underneath) of it. Not sure what that is... oil supply line maybe?

It is annoying, just because it smells like burning oil once and a while. It was down 1/2 quart or so at the last oil change (5000 mi).

Anyone have issues with the supply line?

-Kyle

    Oil leak near turbo 850

    Did you loosen the supply line when you removed the return tube to insert the new rubber o-ring? Several people on the board have stated that they have removed the return line without loosening the supply line but I couldn't do it that way. I had to loosen the supply line. There are 2 copper seals at the banjo fitting. You may need to tighten them or replace them.

    Good luck.
