As above question. The turbo seems to have given up the ghost too. Car runs well with boost pipes off, but crap when boosts pipes on at around when boost should kick in. Is it time for a re build.

Strange thing is there was nothing to give me the impression it's had gone or was on its way out???

This would seem to be all there is. I took the boost run off and took the car for a spin and it would seem I have a fueling problem again.

So is this oil the start? Or the end of the seal leaking. Is it a trip to turbo technics or sinething you can do yourself?

Cheers again

Thats nowt mate, i wouldn't worry. The average diesel has a lot more oil in hoses. Your boost problems wont be related to the oil

Are you running the o.e breather set-up with the pipe fitted to the telephone hose?
If you are, dependant on the condition of the engine this causes oily fumes to be sucked back into the engine which can sometimes end up with residual oil being left in the boost circuit.
