Message: [QUOTE="rrod, post: 1070194, member: 16035"] I asked the dealer the next day after posting on this thread and he said they did a relative as well as manual test and they were even. Not sure how much I believe him but if it was true that would be less of a cause for concern. Also how do you isolate the turbo's? I have no idea how that is done. Unfortunately, I have no history of the truck other than oasis report that shows the turbo's were replace at 78,000mi and at 86,000miles which are the 2 most recent repairs from last year and the largest on the truck from Oasis report. Something caused the turbo's to go within 8,000mi. Now we are over year later and 18,000 more miles on the truck and it seems like another turbo seal leak however something seems to be causing it. If it was something to do with high crankcase pressure then that could be it but wouldn't that be something Ford checked before installing a turbo twice within 8,000mi? I've so far changed oil immediately after buying it along with all oil and fuel filters. They did the relative which was even and supposedly did the manual test as well. How am I able to test one on each bank? Do you mean taking out glow plug from one cylinder on each side and test? I've checked my CAC arm before taking it to any shop. The CAC upper arm was fairly clean. I'll try to pop the lower arm off later today. I also looked in the intake arm and that was clean. I've checked play in the turbo connected to the air intake and it looked good from what I can tell. So far I'm experiencing very little oil loss to the point I still haven't had to put any in since the oil change. Truck seems to be running quite good. I don't notice anything out of the blue except that light smoke on and off when I had the straight pipe. [/QUOTE]
