Re: 2005 S60R: Engine Oil dripping from intercooler elbow
The more I think about it I don't believe this leak is happening because of blow-by either. I replaced my engine with a very good engine and I just replaced the turbo so I don't think that is my problem. There must be some easy explanation to why I am leaking oil at that spot. My boost numbers are g...

Does it allow oil to drip on th...

Maybe I was not clear but the oil drips on the outside of the elbow because it flows out of the coupling above it. And this is not normal behavior on my car. I've had my R since new and with 175K miles it has never happened to me. Something has changed the last month or so to cause this dripping. Al...

2005 S60R: Engine Oil dripping from intercooler elbow
I am new to this site as I normally visit Swedespeed's R Forum but thought I would try here since I am not getting it figured out over there. I have a 2005 S60R with an oil dripping issue. My intercooler is a Bell IC which I installed years ago. The oil is dripping from the bottom of the IC coupling...
