My 1.9TDi (standard 130bhp with 130k on the clock) has oil in the pipe going from the intracooler to the EGR valve.
Is this normal?
What causes this?

I also leave a cloud of smoke behind when I nail it.
Is this related?
 
Yes a bit of oil in the pipes is perfectly normal.
 
down to old age m8 all turbo's will pass some oil some more than others.....
