I have an '84 760 turbo with 161K miles. It has been in the family since new. The oil has always been changed at 2500 mile intervals and I started using M1 synthetic a year ago. I've noticed that the car leaks a few drops of oil in the driveway. The oil is coming from the bottom of the turbo itself and running down all over the engine mount. It's enough to make a mess. The car doesn't smoke at all. It also runs great. I also replaced the turbo oil drain line gasket (bottom of turbo) and O ring that goes into the block. Is it possible that the seals in the turbo are giving out?

Many thanks,
Dave
