Hey,
I've removed the turbo. Had to remove the exhaust manifold to get it out
Anyway, problems.....
There was no gasket for the exhaust to turbo.
The oil return was done with rtv over and old broken gasket.
The vacuum pipe where it joins the turbo has possibly got hot and closed in on itself....
The inlet Feed pipe from underneath up to the turbo has delaminated inside which could cause restriction.
It has some white coloured stuff in the inside of lapping around.
I'm managed to snap to studs the the turbo to manifold.
Looks like I'll have to gel my welder out.....
Also it looks like the Flexi pipe to egr was leaking where it is bolted with two bolts. Should there be a gasket here as the isn't one....
Thanks people

I managed to get both the studs removed by welding a nut to them.
Then just worked them back and forth with plenty of WD40.
Now to strip the turbo and clean......

The turbo is now apart and all the vanes are now cleaned and moving freely.
On closer inspection though the turbo itself has some play.
Not enough to be bad but enough to know that if Ignore it I'll be doing this job again soon.....
Lots of parts to wait for now. Including a new turbo cartridge.

Oh yes, lots of fun.
Do you think a silicone vacuum pipe will be okay to the turbo.
Our should I get the rigid plastic one from Volvo?

I see no reason why you should not use the silicane hoses. Is the rigid pipe original?

Yes, the original one is rigid as per the photo yesterday.
I've got silicon pipe but was not sure if to use it or not.....

Also, looking at Vida for parts, it looks like the exhaust stay is missing?? Part number 30751416
