Default traces of oil.

i found some oil around the oil return line coming off the turbo and on two of the bolts that attach the downpipe with the turbo. I sometimes have a bluish smoke during cold startup, and recently i changed the oil and had quite a bit of bluish smoke. Do u guys think its no biggie, or its a bad seal? tia.

If its running down the oil return line, or the oil return line has oil on it, it may just be the oil drain flange's gasket. Very easy and cheap to fix..

I dont know what two bolts you are speaking of. Now, are these on the bolts that hold the downpipe flane on? Do you have a 5 or 4 bolt turbine flange?
