M57TU2 oil leak

Recommended Posts

After 50,000km of nary a single drop of oil used, and having an engine that could double as a Driza-Bone, I sadly found the garage full of smoke this afternoon.

Couple of drops of oil on the top of the undertray directly below the front turbo, and a very wet looking line as per the pictures. Kinda hard to picture with a torch in one hand and a camera in the other, but I suspect this is the oil feed line (#3) in this picture? http://bmwfans.info/parts-catalog/E90N/Europe/335d-M57N2/R-N/feb2011/browse/engine/oil_supply_for_turbocharger/

It's very much obscured behind the turbo heat shields etc etc so will need to investigate in the morning when the block is cold, but does this sound right M57 gurus? cc: @HELLBM
