Loose Turbo?
I pulled up to work this morning and decided to just check things out under the hood since its been raining here for 5 days straight and i havent popped the hood since last week. Everything looks good then i notice my i/c piping is about to fall off where it clamps on the turbo. I pull down on it to see how loose it is and the whole damn turbo moved. I am like wtf? Look around some more and see oil right where the turbo bolts to the exhaust housing, That is where it is moving. When i grab the turbo the whole thing except the exhaust housing moves about a 1/4 inch. Can i simply tighten it or is something major wrong?

Re: Loose Turbo? (fast94ex)
tighten and use locktite.
the turbo on my skyline was held on by ONE BOLT after I tracked it a few times. The oem ones got so hot they fell off, typical nissan problem...
