Oil coming out BOV????

While washing my car I noticed that there was oil residue inside the BOV. So I took the charge pipe off only to discover that the whole charge system is full of oil. WTF?? Can my turbo seals be blown or what gives??

I think that means that the seals on your turbo are bad

Re: Oil coming out BOV???? (MiraiZ)

It's actually not my car. Its a friend of mine with the same setup. We took the inlet pipe off and it too had gobs of oil inside it. I'm going to unhook the charge pipe so it doesn't continue to ingest oil. No boosting for a little while until he can get he turbo seal replaced. Anyone have any ideas on getting a rebuild kit? Its the GReddy TD05H-18G turbo. Fortunately the plugs look great so no problems there.
