The oil seems to be comeing from the top inter cooler hose and dripping out from there, maybe the seal in the turbo is nackerd and allowing oil through there ?? there is also oil blowing out of the blow off balve....... and the water is only coming from the over flow hose from the ast, so there are no broken hoses, it could be that the filler cap and or ast cap have worn and lost the spring pressure allowing the water out???? i will keep looking thanks for your help man much appreicated

Oil in the charge pipes usually means you have a bad turbo - the dynamic oil seal is probably shot, you're more than likely going to need a rebuild.

Yeah thats what i thought, but its only the turbo that needs rebuilding though yeah??

Get the STANT cap for the AST (if you have an aftermarket one).

get the coolant filler neck cap from mazda (think its $14).

schwass

the ast is still the plastic factory 1, so i will just try an get the aftermarket 1 for that, so i just need to replace the 2 caps then??

schwass

heyi have sussed it out, got some pics faxd through from mazda and the 3rd cap was the subradiator filler and dipper so its sweet, but they say they can only get the original parts and there prices are $77.00 +gst for the ast and $37.43 +gst for the thermostat housing, will try and find an aftermarket one, thanks man

schwass

hey have replaced the ast cap with a 16psi non genuine cap, and it seem to have fixed the prob, so hopefully no more topping up with water, and i will see what i can do with checking the turbos........ thanks again
