S40 oil leak

djdave · Jan 2nd, 2008, 20:47

Hi newbe here and starting off with problems...
We have a S40 1.9diesel and it was using oil found it to be the turbo so I replaced the turbo and all seemed fine until an oil leak appeared on the ground, Now it looks as if it is coming from the top pipe where it connects to the inlet manifold, coming from the intercooler into the inlet manifold its been a month since turbo was replaced and it should have got rid of all the oil in there by now. I was just wondering if anyone has any idea's or if there is anything else that is common with them, I believe they are the renault engine.

Thanks,Dave

Edit: Also the EGR valve? has been welded previously by someone, I have been told this was because it was sticking, would this have any effect on it?
