ok, so it de oiled the engine bay and uunderside today AGAIN.... to try and work out where im loosing oil...when i say loosing its akin to a 2-stroke!...

the majour loss is from the turbo oil return pipe where it enters the sump...guess its back to the guys that did the new turbo a month ago....

the weird leak is on the front of the block, kinda the oil APPEARS to be comming out fro mthe top water pump mounting bolt, i.e actually emerging from the bolt hole and making its way behind the nut?????..now the only two sources I can imagine are the cam oil seal and the CH gasket..if it was from the cam I find it hard to see how it gets there without being visible...anyone seen this before or got other ideas...

to explain i degresed with a wash gun, degreaser and 60lbs presure so its really clean!

my alarm/remote locking also blew up today..like FRIED...grr not my day!...
