Where are the 2 pipes water/oil located to the turbo.problem with a leak, think it’s the oil pipe.

Not sure if this will help, my meriva 1.4 petrol turbo, had a slow leak and nobody could find it. Took it to a traditional garage and it was the turbo pipes, meriva turbo water cooled.

New member question - Scrap or new engine?
Finn replied to itsjk's topic in New Members Introductions
Even buying a 2nd engine the cost of doing it would(garage) be expensive -
You could take it back and get the RAC to inspect it. Odd that no warning lights came on to tell you low oil, has it been disabled

This happened to my meriva 2011 1.4 petrol, it was like Blackpool illumination, car still drove but nothing worked. Pointed to the abs system. It sits under the plastic header tank for topping up the antifreeze. Took it to a guy who fitted a second hand one and reset everything. This might be your problem but mine seems to have worked

The part is exactly the same, you’re right it’s the first and last, friend changed the plugs on hi old Range Rover and the smoke coming out was unbelievable. Told me he got them from Amazon + other stuff every thing dumped and renews with quality parts now running sweet as a nut
