Volvo S80 '2000 Turbo Return Line Leak?

Hello. My car leaks several oil drops a day when parked. I suspected the turbo return line. From the bottom of the engine, I observed that the two screw area for the driver turbo return line was clean (no leak). I was not able to observe lower the o-ring area, the bottom end of the return line pipe ...

PCV cleaning on 2000 s80 t6

Hello, Today I began to remove parts from the top. I understand that I have to remove fuel rail system and intake manifold, to get to oil trap. Could anyone provide instruction on removing the fuel rail? (Picture attached.) I was told to turn the blue knob in the middle with cloth, to catch dripping...

PCV cleaning on 2000 S80 T6

Hello, I concluded that I should be looking at cleaning PCV first. So today I began to remove parts from the top. I understand that I have to remove fuel rail system and intake manifold, to get to oil trap. Could anyone provide instruction on removing the fuel rail? (Picture attached.) I was told to...

Re: Reomving Turbocharger from 2000 S80 T6

Yesterday, after driving a while, I parked the car idling. I took out the oil dipstick. There was no smoke coming out. Then I put my foot on accelerator. Then white smoke came out. Also only when I put on accelerator, white smoke came out of the exhaust pipe (muffler) in the rear. I am not sure whet...

Re: Reomving Turbocharger from 2000 S80 T6

Yes. But I will double check. (How do I do that?) About 2-3 years ago (15000 miles ago), there were smokes/fumes coming out from the top of engine. So I took it to the dealership. They did the PCV cleaning service for $300. So I am assuming PCV is OK. This time, there was no fume/smoke coming out. M...

Re: Reomving Turbocharger from 2000 S80 T6

My S80 is leaking oil in many places. My mechanic thinks turbochargers are leaking but did not recommend work since it costs too much by his labor rate. Besides I have cam seals leak and front crankshaft leak. The big one is from the turbocharger(s), according to him. He thinks they should be replac...
