Evo 9 GSR Turbo leaking oil from vband clamp ?
Have a completely stock Evo 9 GSR JDM 80000ks on it.
Recently noticed I was getting whiffs of hot oil type of smell when coming to a stop after driving(ie stopped at intersections, etc). Had a look around the engine and its clean and dry everywhere apart from what looks like oil residue seeping onto the bolt/nut that holds the vband type clamp together for mating the CHRA to the turbine housing.
Anyone had this issue and what caused it ? Theres no smoke from tailpipe at all.
Thanks for any help !
