Wet exterior on turbo

[WakkoSS]

I was looking at my turbo up close today and noticed that the flange where the flexible hose mates to the turbo is a bit wet with oil and there's some oil where the two compressor housings meet. It's a very low mile turbo (TE44). Is there a gasket to replace or should I replace the hole hose? It's not dripping or anything, just wet.

You might want to check the bolts holding the tube on, they might just be loose, if so, try and tighten them up a bit but don't over torque them. If that doesn't work, you might need to replace the gasket, try this site: http://www.johnsperformance.com/
Scroll down to the Online Catalog link and click on it. They have a lot of great parts as well as the gasket you need.

Hope this helps
