Oil misting in intercooler pipes....
Gents, in the quest to find reasons for my late 2005 y30 shaking like a crappin' terrier. i noticed today that the two hoses to, and from the intercooler have a fine mist of oil in them, as does the mouth of the turbo. Problem???. Also the main boost pipe from the i/c to the air intake plenum "bulges" when revved at idle...is this normal?
The oil is normal mate. A small amount anyway.
as for the pipes blushing how much do they bulge? They should fill up a bit and harden due to the air pressure at boost
Double post
it swells visibly by about 10-15 mm across its diameter.
Hmmm Yeah that is quite a lot.
do you have a way to check what it's boosting at?
On another note for the shaking Have you got any noise coming from DMF?
Double post is starting to break me
Only noise is a slight rumble on release of clutch pedal. Much like good old release bearings in the good old days before laptops overtook spanners....no other clutch issues, or noises.
Sorry no, now way of telling what boost pressures might be.
As vibration can be caused by failing dmf.
What's the milage on the car?
Are all injectors firing ok etc?
