I had a compression test done last year when my first concerns about it came to head, and was all good. The only smoke from the exhaust is soot. No white or grey smoke at all. One of my customers is a Garret dealer and I spoke to him a while back and he seems to think it the turbo.
Most of the driving this Patrol does its towing, and I have notice this is when I find the intercooler see’s a lot of oil.
I am going to ring my customer tomorrow and have another chat with them anyway.
So I’ve gotten as far as everything is unbolted from the turbo, just the four nuts that hold the turbo onto the manifold.
These bastards won’t budge.
Am I better off removing the manifold with the turbo on it?
