Turbo oil leak into intercooler air pipe & turbo exterior 850 1996

posted by  someone claiming to be eddyprice on  Thu Oct 31 02:42 CST 2002 [RELATED]

I'm looking for information on the cause & repair solution for my 850 leaking Turbo. I noticed oil drips in my garage and upon inspection found oil on the turbo body. The oil return line looks okay (too bad this could have been an easy fix for me), but there's evidence of oil in the top intercooler air pipes (oil at the hose clamps), and once in a while I get oil drips on the exterior of the turbo unit. FYI - The car has 99,000 miles.

Anyone have any suggestions or advice? I may have to take it to the dealer (150 miles away) but would at least like to know something before I do that.

Thanks,
Ed
