Hi

Had my car serviced and they picked up a very oily EGR valve. Was explained that this is caused by the oil seals on the turbo weeping. Sounds like a new turbo is going to be required so might be a good time to look at upgrading. Any suggestions on what to go for, were to get it done and ball park costs.

Found this - http://www.egrvalve.co.uk/ would by passing the EGR valve etc cause any problems with mot/emissions?

Cheers,
Si
