Oil in intercooler pipes
 

If you have oil in your intercooler pipes, does that mean you blew an oil seal on your turbo or could it be from something else?

Depends on how you run your setup.



On the factory Genesis Coupe, you need an oil catch can to prevent this because of the hoses that run into the intake. Aftermarket setups would not have this problem.

Yea if you have your crankcase breathing into your intake it could be engine blow by, but if nothing else is plumbed into your intake then it can only be your turbo.

First time I had oil in my charge pipe,was because of crappy pistons and rings...second time was my turbo seals..could be too much pressure in oil feed line/no restrictor., could be a # of reasons. ...start with a compression test....
