    I have had my car apart the other day and noticed a little oil in the intercooler and all over the inlet side of the turbo. It appears to be coming from the rocker vent that attaches just before the turbo inlet. I rarely get smoke unless it's cold starting.

    Is it normal t0 have a little oil in the inter cooler and pipes?

    Is this a problem anyone else has had that they have remedied easily? ie. it's not the turbo

    thanks in advance
