At 220000 miles my 2000 TD5 CSW has a 'spray' of oil on the rad grille in front of the intercooler........seems likely to be a pin hole leak? Seems generally a bit short of turbo grunt of late so need to rule out lost pressure here and work backwards to the turbo eventually I suspect.
So, you very experienced types out there - is there an obvious good candidate for a replacement intercooler? No tuning involved so I'm looking at a straight swap out and in, unless there are good reasons to do anything more sophisticated while I've got it apart? I'll replace the pipes anyway.
Hope you can help with good ideas/previous experience/recommendations - thanks a lot. A
