28-02-09, 12:44 GMT+10#24 okay, I dont think the turbo has blown at all ... seems fine. Engine didnt make any knocks or anything either...
So me and a mate who is mechanic had a look over it.
For some reason theres a Trans fluid ... overflow or something, connected to the vacuum?
red = vacuum, green = trans overflow (?)
I think the high boost, plus the transmission having too much fluid in it, would hace sucked a sh1tload of trans fluid in and burnt it up?
That sound right?
And if thats the case, how should I clean up the cooler piping, lines, turbo and exhaust with burnt oil through them?

28-02-09, 18:47 GMT+10#25 probally a problem with your auto modulator valve, there is a valve at the end of that pipe on the trans and that valve has a diaphram in it, it's ment to have fluid on one side and vac on the other when the diaphram tears the engine sucks trans fluid up into it vl's do it as well. i would check your trans oil level because you will find it low
