June 7, 201015 yr So the white cloud followed me into the parking lot at lunch time today... The gauge never got hot and I shut it off right away. It looks like I have a coolant leak on the line going into the bottom of the turbo. How hard is it to change that coolant line? It looks like I have to pull the turbo to get at it. Is that correct? What else should I change and/or replace while I have the turbo out? Please let me know if there are any tricks or tips to replacing the coolant line. Thanks.
June 7, 201015 yr Its difficult but if you can get to the hose clamps from below you should be able to change it. If not and you have to remove the turbo you will need the water hose,turbo gaskets and you should replace the oil hose. Theres also a metal line that runs to the cylinder head thats anchored with a banjo bolt and it uses 2 copper sealing washers. In this area I would use oem parts. heres a link to a factory service manual for your ea82 engine. http://www.ch601.org/engines.htm
