toyota, about £1000 mate.

best bet is to either upgrade, get your current one rebuilt or buy a good used one.

Hey Hun,

I'm not that far from you either only in Norfolk, not quite as close as Duncan but not far away either. As has been said best bet is to upgrade or have your rebuilt if possible. Maybe locally a place to try is http://www.essexturbos.com/index.aspx I haven't used them but have spoken to them recently and they were really helpful. might be worth a shot.

Welcome to the club btw :D

No what you mean i had a vosa check last time they were doing it at the portman carpark, big waste of time the guy turned round and said your car is good as gold.

I got a fine for a loud exhaust even tho they couldnt tell me what a standard glanzas desibel for its exhaust was, Twats! Only got 90db lol. they said oh standard is probably around 60, lol useless pricks. also tried to give me 3 points for pillar pod gauges saying they impaired my vision and they could charge me with driving without due care :confused: i was like wtf! hate traffic police, useless c***** lol. anyway spamming the thread welcome again mate.

what is actually wrong with yours mate? is it just smoking?

yeah wen drive it normaly or flat out fine, soon as it idles at junction or traffic lights etc u get the smell of burning oil then a blue haze out the exhaust, inlet side of the turbo is covered in oil, i wash it off and in 2-3days it gets all oil i have checked the shaft and no play in the bearings and both turbine blades look ok i reckon its the oil seal on the way out wot do u think?:confused:
