turbo pedestal is leaking. any info out there?
#16
Pulling the turbo to replace the pedestal o rings is not that bad of job as you think.
I was intimidated the first time, but I've had my turbo off 7-8 times chasing a leak. (Because I was frustrated, and was missing the obvious)
You can have the turbo & pedestal off in under a half hr.
Seriously you can do this job yourself and save a wad of cash.
I use a dewalt 12v impact with 1/4 deep sockets to remove the boot clamps and marmon clamps. Having an old lawn seat cusion to lay on helps also.
We can talk you thru it.
