hey i have oil dripping on my downpipe at the bend wheen it starts going towards the back of the car, it seems to be near turbo/manifold but i know my turbo oil return isn't leaking could it be anything else?
 
after talking to a bunch of people they said the only place that could lea onto the DP is the oil return. but im almsot sure its not.
 
check where the oil return connects to the turbo itself. i had one leak from there also check the whole engine for leaks. is there any oil on the pan itself?
 
first thing you should do is clean up all the oil and then do a little driving and look under the car to see where it's coming from. i had a problem like this, mine came from the oil return line and oil pan.
