Hi, so I finally got the turbo off my car, was a bit limited in time and resources hence it has taken me so long. Good news is that I did not have to move the engine or loosen any major parts to get the turbo out. I managed to squeeze it out below on the right hand corner with the oil feed pipe attached as could not get the b****r off.
Now I just want to check before I put the other turbo in what could have caused the inducer Compressor Wheel to be eaten away? Is there anything else I need to check because I don't want to go through the same pain shortly after installing the new turbo.
PS. I have not figured out yet where the oil leak came from, it could be the rocker cover gasket on the RHS(when you stand in front of car facing the engine) or , pls see attached pic, it could be coming from behind this part?? I am sceptical about it being the rocker cover as it was newly replaced not too long ago...but then again...so I did get a new gasket anyway.
Much appreciate any suggestions.
