well it looks like more problems with the 3

Just been cleaning the car and noticed at the bottom of the engine the tray is covered in oil deposits. Just in areas where the boost pipe enters the intercooler from the turbo.

Pipe in the join to intercooler is also coverd in sticky oil

Car is LCI 177 320D done 24K is this normal or do I have asn incoming turbo probelm

just wondering if anyone else has this

It's normal for a small amount on oil to be in the boost system, but not an excessive amount.
