no oil reaching turbo
 
Having problems with my xc90 d5, the turbo seized & I am in the process of replacing it now. I have checked the oil supply to the turbo and it is almost non existent, the old oil was very black. Is there a filter inline in the block or can i blow it back with compressed air - any advice please.

i would buy a new feed pipe and see how much oil comes out before you connect it to the turbo .. seems the oil changes were neglected OR a cheap oil used?

still no oil flow
 
Thanks for your advice, I have checked the pipe but the blockage is in the engine block where the pipe connects - any suggestions for an engine flushing product that Works..... any advice welcomed, thanks

If it is that bad then the only reliable way is to dismantle the engine and clean out all the oilways . It must have had a dubious life .
Maybe cheaper in time just to fit a used engine ...
