I would very much appreciate your comments /advise on this issue that might be a problem.
I had a leak on the Radiator (already fixed) which led to the disassembly of the whole front end, upon which I noticed dark oil stains at the base of both intercoolers, so I had them removed. The insides were clean with no leaks, the oil stains were coming from the big pipes leading from the turbos to the intercoolers, (inlet tract), in all, no more than three spoons, a bit more on the drivers side. Before disassembly, the car ran fine, perhaps a little hesitation sometimes at tip-in, but no alarm lights on the dash (other than the low cooling level that led to disassembly), no loss of power, no strange noises, nothing. I donīt know if a small amount of oil on this pipes is normal is normal or could lead to a later failure. Car has 24, 860K supposedly original miles. Your help would be very appreciated.
Thank you very much.
