Hello all. Me again...
Anyhow, the above with 76k miles, seems to leave a couple of drips of oil from the back of the engine. The mechanic said that it's from the turbocharger, internal to it. (Meaning not from an oil hose or anything, if there is such a thing). Is that the beginning of a bigger leak or the turbo going bad? He said it's hard to replace and expensive and to just watch the oil level every so often and maybe add as needed.
What are your thoughts? The car is usually driven by my wife and definitely not abused...
Thank you, Anthony V.
