chandlerdoustou22 Posted June 9, 2019 Share Posted June 9, 2019 I am looking for a vf40 for my 2005 legacy gt. Right now my car smokes a little bit and personally, I think that it is my turbo. What is out there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
awfulwaffle Posted June 9, 2019 Share Posted June 9, 2019 I have a used one in the FS section. Else, a JMP rebuild is a good option. Take your intercooler off and see if there's a bunch of oil in it before deciding your issue is the turbo. Does the car use a lot of oil? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

awfulwaffle Posted June 10, 2019 Share Posted June 10, 2019 Turbo seal, excessive blowby (failing rings) or stuck PCV valve come to mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chandlerdoustou22 Posted June 10, 2019 Author Share Posted June 10, 2019 I have noticed that it has been using quite a bit of oil. I guess I might need to do a compression test to see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
