Hi,
I'm about to buy a Nissan Note 1.5l turbo-diesel. There's a slight oil leak on the turbo intake. Is this potentially a big problem or is it normal and perhaps just needs a new seal?

Hi there,

A turbo mail seal leak will probably lead to a full re build as the shaft may be worn (common problem) you will be up for a bill in excess of around $1000.00 to get this done correctly.
