Ok so I have had my list of problems....But I just got my car back on the road after three long years and now more problems show up..

I have a slight oil leak right where the turbo oil return line meets the front cover..Probably just needs a new gasket..

But the bad thing is the other day there was coolant in the middle of the puddle of oil...WTF

Does this mean "rebuild" or maybe water is getting into the line from the bad turbo I have...

Please say the turbo...

Any help and advice will be appreciated.

Thanks
Neal

Sounds like you have a small oil AND coolant leak, seperately on the engine, and they happen to be dripping down on the same spot on teh driveway, adn since oil displaces water, the water stays on top.

You describe your oil leak as being from the oil drain pipe at the front cover. IF you have a turbo water return hose leaking, a leaky water pump weep hole, gasket, or WP housing-to-block gasket, water will drip and run down in that same spot, and so the oil and water will both drop on the ground in the same spot.
