Turbo coated with oil
« on: January 03, 2008, 08:25:53 pm »
I was changing axles on my Jetta today and had a better look at the turbo from underneath.  The whole bottomside is covered in oil.  Is it necessarily rebuild time?  Is there a gasket of any kind I should be checking?  Nothing seems to be leaking from the oil line going to the turbo.  I would like to haul it out and rebuild it, but just don't have the time for that.  I was thinking of getting a new turbo to change it out with.  

Would my used T3 be worth any significant amount of money?
