Turbo Question again.....

I had my turbo replaced by dodge back in December. I have put about 10,000 miles since. Noticed a while back the CAC tube was moist again and took back to dealer. THey pulled the boot and said it checked out OK, the amt of oil in there was completely normal ( AParently very little). It has pretty much stayed dry. I got under the truck to ck the back of the turbo and there is a SLIGHT amount of seepage there. Not hardly any, but a little bit. I am beginning to think this is Normal????

Monty,

A friend of mine is an ex-Cummins mechanic and said a little seepage is normal, especially on towing rigs (you) and trucks with power adders.

Awesome, Thanks PT, I figured as much since it was happening with identical conditions with the new turbo. And it never seems to get "Worse" LOL
