Thats all I came up with.
Have you taken it to diesel tec or someone?

No.... I am broke... ha ha hu h...
Step 1. Get schematic and ensure when you blow air down that gallery it's going out, not into shitty crevices blocking other major paths and get oil to alternator.
Step 2. Either take that turbo to someone to tune and assess or throw it away and just get a second hand ht18 for now.
Step 3. Enjoy your hard work.
I have looked and looked for details on the oil galleries and I cant find anything decent.... there has to be someone on here that enjoys a good hunt ???
I'm not sure if this is any good to you mate... Hopefully you can sort it soon, sounds like a real prick of a situation...

This is aimed at Matty and George but texting this much gives me the shits...
Today I only managed to remove all the intercooler set up and oil filters plus other bits that get in the way so as to get to the bits that I was instructed too.
I pulled the alternator oil line off and the grub screw for the turbo feed and got a long cable tie as it was stiff but flexible.. it went in a fair way before hitting an obstruction but when I pulled out the cable tie it was covered in oil on both ports... I mean covered in oil.
So there is plenty of oil there but no pressure on that side.
Now I have not pulled the valve on the oil filter side out yet as I have been neglecting my family so time was very limited .
I am still not clear as yet and will have to confirm what I am supposed to do next with the valve thingy...? Its bloody hard to get to on that side.
Drain your coolant....
