C'mon guys, lets get our heads on straight and see if we can help Malik.
Sounds as if a combination of ring flutter due to cylinder wear, high boost,
and resulting high blowby may be responsible. Questions to ask are:
1. Does the compression check OK? If not, it may point to the problem. If
OK, it could still be the problem because ring flutter occurs only at high
RPMs.
2. The PCV system empties blowby into the suction side of the turbo. There
does not appear to be any other path except a bad suction side turbo seal
for oil to appear in the accordian hose.
3. Regarding oil under the passenger's side of the car, there have been
instances where excessive blowby has pushed out cam and/or crank seals. But
since the oil is only on the passenger's side, what about the turbo suction
side seal? What about the corragated turbo oil return line connections
loosening in addition to blowby?
We have enough experienced members on this list to be of genuine help to
one of our own. What I've written here are only my own ideas, but I've
never run really high boost. So, who else has "thought experiment" ideas?
