    Can anyone recommend a turbo supplier please. It looks like I'm in the market for a new K04.

    I need to do a bit more checking but it looks to me like all the nasty signs of failed oil seals are there. The engine smokes like a good'un at times nice cluds of the blue stuff. I've got oil in the inlet and I've also spotted an oil leak down the back of the block probably coming form teh turbo or one of the oil feeds. One rather strange problem is spark plug in cylinder no.1 gets oiled up, while the others remain relatively clean.

    Anyway, any recommendations?

    Much appreciated as always :thumbup:

    Depends where you are. I used turbo developments but there are many others

    Cr turbos, midland turbo, Essex turbos.
