I have oil leaking from my exhaust. WTF? I have cut the standard exhaust just behind the doors which i did 6 months ago. Only recently I have noticed the oil. On idle there is a slow drip but when I give her some she is flowing. Does anybody have any ideas what it can be? Cheers.

yeh definately the turbo seal.
Just oil from the motor going straight down the exaust....

well as far as a price, depends on your ability, if you take it all off and to shop it will cheaper then if you take the car to a shop...

same goes if you buy the kit and install it yourself its even cheaper....

but turbo repairs when taken to a shop are generally dear, mechanics like to charge like a wounded bull with turbos for some reason.
