G'day all,
The car has been a bit down on power between 1700-2000rpm in 3rd, 4th and 5th, it labour's and drones a bit. More recently in 3rd but 4th and 5th have been like this for some time? Injectors were replaced at 300k. Potentially SVC related?
So I decided to take a look down the throttle body and to see if the EGR was caked with carbon. When I disconnected the intercooler I've noticed a pool of oil in the throttle body which looks to be coming through the intercooler. Is this amount of oil normal and what could be the cause? Turbo leaking oil and in need of a rebuild?
Link to some images as they probably paint a better picture than I do! [url]https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fo/vpqp3nica26jd8nziwo8v/h?dl=0&rlkey=cjik7c[url][/url]3j2j45xv142dyp9wa2s[/url]

Has anyone else experienced this?
The car is an early model 2006 with 315k on the clock
