Oil coming out of turbo?
My UICP came loose last night while driving and it detached itself from the turbo. I didn't want to deal with it cause it was late so I just drove home with it with no boost.
When I opened my hood, I noticed that oil had been coming out of the turbo outlet. I looked in the upper intercooler pipe and there was a bit of oil in there as well.
Is this normal? I'm thinking it's because since there was no pressure on the compression side the oil return wasn't functioning properly.
