Hi,
I have an Astra coupe Turbo (2001) and have developed an oil burning smell through the air vents. Vauxhall have charged me to replace a turbo gasket which didn't cure the problem, so they now insist there is an internal oil leak and suggest I replace the turbo (£1100!!).
I find it hard to beleive that an internal leak would cause a smell at the front of the car, I would expect the oil to come out of the exhaust...?? They insist all pipes are fine.
I would greatly appreciate any advice anyone could offer regarding this or any steps I could take to see if they are right.
Any ideas?
Many thanks,
Dave
