    Turbo return Oil Pipe cost?

    How much would be a good price to change this pipe inc parts and labour. i:e the seal and gasket and pipe?

    How long would the job normally take?

    You should only need the gasket for the turbo and the seal ring for the block end, about £3.50. Somethings seriously wrong if it takes more than 30 minutes to change the them.

    I can imagine the cost I have fitted my turbo without the oil retrun pipe due to there being more than one size. I got the worng size for mine originally.
    Anyway due to some pipes being in the way you either have to remove one them or the turbo itself...
    I don't know which is the easiest when the engine is in the car, cos i've been playing with mine on and engine stand..
