1kd oil leak from engine to turbo
Posted: Wed, 23 Sep 2020 6:56 +0000
Hi everyone
I'm new to all this and mot sure if this has been discussed previously, but any help would be greatly appreciated.
I have a 2006 4x4 Hilux SR
Model: KUN26R
Engine: 1KD
I have an issue with oil leaking from the engine through the turbo into the exhaust.
I initially thought it was a turbo issue. I got that fixed but the issue was still there.
Then I found out that the Cat converter was blocked from oil.
When my dad was changing over the turbo he noticed when he took off the exhaust manifold, 3 of them were dry but one of them was wet with oil.
He seems to think the piston ring is damaged from previous owner maybe overheating the engine, and now oil is leaking through.
I have to top up engine oil every 4,000-5,000ks
Has anyone come across this issue?
Any quick fix? Without having to strip the engine.
Any products that may help?
