Okay. Started dismantling the turbo piping. The metal pipe going to the inlet from the intercooler (where the egr connects) was caked with about 2-3cm on soot/sh*t.
The crank case breather tubes were both unobstructed.
Had a closer look at the oil separator and its valve/lid. Looks like i can get the lid off without removing the whole oil filter housing. Should have enough space between the fuel rail and block to slide a torx bit through with a wobbly extention.
Blew air through the heated crankcase ventilation nipple as well and that didnt have any obstruction either. It was however ziptied to the rubber hose that goes into the turbo and theres crack showing in the rubber around the heated nipple socket.
The metal pipe going from the MAF to the turbo was a little dinged up but no cracks that i can see
Will post pics soon as im on mobile right now.
