New here because im fried
2010 smart cdi 54bhp DPF passion.
1, Turbo solenoid failed (replaced)
2. DPF clogged (cleaned)
3. Noticed a lot of oil around cross member under the turbo.
4. Pipes off and full of oil.
5. Rebuild turbo and still leaked.
6. New cartridge ready assembled and still leaked.
7. Checked turbo oil drain, its clear.
8. This is the unusual part. If i leave the outlet pipe ( from compressor to intercooler) off, it doesn't or barely leaks oil. If I put ot back on, instant oil in the pipes and compressor snail.
8. Crank breather from the cam/head is clear.
9. Oil level was high, i think from injectors leaking. (new seals to be installed)
It just wont stop leaking under normal conditions.
