Hi All.

I've had a few spots of oil on the drive and its been getting steadily worse. :sadlike:

Had a look tonight and its 99.9% the oil return steel line from the turbo back into engine i Have the gasket for this but What a Tw*t to try and get to it!
I have managed to tighten a little to see if it helped but it did not :-(.
Is there an easy way to do this?? I had it up on axle stands but couldn't get through from underneath. So i got in from the top but it really is not the best.
Also when it is undone will it move enough to be able to get the new gasket in place??

If anyone could advise i would be really grateful. I'm on short time so was going to have another look on Friday. If not Garage will be the only way and could do with out it!

Thanks
