heya guys

im having problem with the car smoking just on the start-up (https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=1876508)

and when i was checking for oil level and stuff under the hood, i noticed that theres quite a bit of oil leak coming out on the back of the compressor housing of the turbo

does that mean my turbo shot ??? rebuild time ?? is that the cause why my car is blowing white smoke just on the start up everytime ??

thanks

check your drainline, i had one that had a kink in it and leaked oil right out the comp housing, fixed the drainline, and the problem was solved.

On one of my turbo's, whenever i park the car, it leaks oil out into the exhuast side, just a small amount, and some around the turbo too. On my daily driver, a tdo5h, no oil leaks at all, no burning ever, but that has a restrictor buil into the turbo. I put a restrictor on my other one, and that helped, but i still get smoke from time to time, and it still leaks out. If your not pushing oil into the intake side, its not likely your turbo seal. Might wanna take it apart and clean up the exhaust side. Make sure no oil has coked sp??? up. As there really isn't much to seal up the exhaust side, typicaly works on air pressure differentials.
