hi i just wanted to know if there is anything i can do to stop oil coming from the intercooler pipes on my galaxy ,i took the pipes off and cleaned them out and powerhosed the intercooler,the next day the oil has started to drip again please help

strip and rebuild the engine, blue printing it should help! replace the turbo, improve on the engine venting, dont recirculate fit breather pots and oil collectors or..... leave it switched off and take the bus ;)

you need to stop the oil getting into the intercooler not stop it getting out! if there was a serious air leak it would affect the running of the engine badly it sounds like a turbo problem but could also be engine issues,

did you supply the engine and turbo? if not what garentee do you have with the garage that supplied it, it would be worth finding out as this could be an expensive problem....

thanks for the reply .i bought the car in april last year and i noticed alot of oil dripping from the pipes on the intercooler as my mate used to work in a vw garage i called him to find out if it was a big problem ,he told me that it was very common and they just give them a good clean and not to worry about it .six months later the turbo packed in paid

i would have thought it was the oil seals in the turbo (prob need a new turbo) i take it that there is the right amount of oil in the car and its not over full as it could be pushed up through the sump breather, the only other way of getting the oil up through the breather is if your piston rings are worn and your building up pressure in the sump, but would prob smoke if that were the case
