    well i know for a fact i have a leak from the oil pump but its only a few drops a week, i fill my PS container every 2 days and every weekend i check the oil level and i checked the oil on a wednesday when i noticed a burning smell and it was just under full, i cleaned it off and checked it again and same thing.

    but that following weekend i checked it and it was just on low so yeah, that was 2 weeks ago now and its been full ever since untill todays check as its now around the half way mark, i do get a random smell of burning oil and it is obivious from around the trubos after turning off the motor so i think its safe to say that one of my oil inlets/returns or something like that is busted as its getting on in kms so yeah

    once the spare cars back on the road ill have to remove the turbos and replace all the gaskets and give it all a good clean so ill update this thread then
