Oil on boost pipe

[ian007miles]

Hi every one.  I was under the bonnet of my golf 18T AGU.  today and I noticed that my blue forge elbow boost pipe that comes off of the top of the turbo to the intercooler pipe was a different colour to all the other blue pipes I've got, it looks realy dirty. so I wiped it with a clean dry tissue and wen I looked at the tissue it was covered in oil. It is comng through the pipe its self.Does anyone no wot can cause this and could it cause damage to the turbo or the engine thanx ian.

Thats what I fort. But there's nuffin above it. So I took the pipe off and it's oily inside as well. Do u no wot can cause it.

[tech1889]

the inside will be oily because of crappy pcv system only way to stop is with a catch can..

not sure on outside tho mate sorry..

What if I fit a catch can it will stop the oil in Side the big elbow at the top of the turbo

[tech1889]

yes yes.. as the pcv system seems to recirc it via the turbo.. this also means cleaner inside of turbo
