Re: No Boost!

Does it sound like really bad lifter tick, but kind of inconstistant?

eh, I'm not sure. It didn't sound like a lifter tick I've ever heard but it did resemble a "tick" sound. I didn't hear that shit under load. It seemed when the turbo was not boosting at all, the tick was there. Then when you gave it any sort of boost, the tick left and the screaming came. It very well could have just been covered up by the exhaust under load though.

I didn't get a good chance to really look, but I think the crank seal behind the pulley is starting to give again.. Is it possible that the crank has enough shaft play in it to wiggle out the seal? It could be coming from somewhere else but I doubt it.

THINGS I NOTICED WITHOUT HAVING TIME TO LOOK INTO
-Hole in radiator ( car got 3/4 hot ) not really noticing any leaks but there was a steady stream of steam coming from the lower side of the radiator behind the fan.
-small oil drip on ground ( very thin but steady line of oil around the engine side of the timing belt)
-The center section of the turbo where the water / oil lines run is covered in oil.
- Weird ticking / clunk sounds right before I shut off the car.

Re: No Boost!

I pulled the turbo off. I think turbine inside of the exhaust housing was slowly grinding off on the housing. The turbo was filled with a greyish oil. There is massive shaft play but it's all there still. The wastegate should be in working order. I assume it's time to go shopping for a new turbo?
