8	Turbocharger Oil Feed Pipe CAUTION: When installing a quick-connect turbocharger oil feed pipe, ensure that the oil feed pipe is fully secured into the oil feed pipe fitting. An audible click will be heard when the oil feed pipe is seated. If the oil feed pipe is not fully seated, an oil leak can occur in certain RPM ranges and will cause significant component and/or vehicle damage. Due to the possibility of significant component and/or vehicle damage from an oil feed pipe leak, it is necessary to start the engine and inspect for signs of leakage around the connections after performing the repair. CAUTION: Ensure that the turbocharger oil feed pipe does not rotate while torquing it. There should be a minimum 10 mm gap between the oil feed pipe and the v-band clamp. Failure to perform this could result in damage to the oil feed pipe and create an oil leak. Procedure NOTE: Use NEW turbocharger oil feed pipe gaskets on the bolt at the turbocharger connection. A suitable tool can be used to ensure there is a 10 mm gap between the feed pipe and turbine housing while tightening the turbocharger oil feed pipe. Install the pipe with the bolt at the turbocharger. Attached the bottom of the pipe to the turbocharger pipe fitting at the engine block. Ensure that the oil feed pipe is fully secured into the turbocharger pipe fitting. An audible click will be heard when the oil feed pipe is seated. Tighten 32 N.m (24 lb ft)
