bigtee Posted September 12, 2008 Author Report Posted September 12, 2008 hi just wanted to let you know that my turbo went last weekend and after a weeks work i finally got it replaced thanks to my brother in law, anyway the mechanic told me the best way to get the oil out of the intercooler was to remove the pipe feeding the turbo, which in my car a 2001 tdi 115 p.s was on the left looking down and run the car for ten mins and then put a rag into the intercooler and soak up any oil, repeat this until the oil clears up, this could take a while so be patient but it is very important that no oil remains in the intercooler, hope this helps as i could not find any answers on the forum to my question p.s love the forum and have a good laugh reading some of the stuff :wacko: Quote
bigtee Posted September 14, 2008 Author Report Posted September 14, 2008 :wacko: hi again sorry for getting my last reply wrong the pipe to take off the intercooler is the one on the right Quote
