Frogland Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 I've noticed an oily residue depositing on my top intercooler hose,I wipe it off and a day later it comes back. Any offers ? 300tdi bog standard daily runner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christophers1247 Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 i asume its inside the hose its coming from depending on how much oil we are talking about its normal or lots of oil turbo seals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

western Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 the oil vapours are from the crankcase breather, try cleaning the intercooler,breather & pipes, it'll make a difference it the cleaning has never been done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
