you were told on your first thread to replace the whole pipe!

you ignored the advice and its failed, as you were told it would, if you're going to continually post shit on the forum at least listen to the advice people are giving you

Fastlife, get the car recovered to a garage that can fix your turbo oil feed pipe properly, get the oil changed before you run it as more than likely contains bits of your engine, it's more than likely damaged your engine but you'll find that out soon enough.
If it took you 10 days to do up a bolt you shouldn't be working on your own car, professionals have the gear and experience to sort things like that in 5 mins.

Maybe were being a bit harsh,the guys only looking for help.

Fast life,did you try tightening the leaking jubilee clips?

Did they turn at all and if so by how much?

After you tightened them did they leak or not and if not is it possible there was no oil pumping through as it had poured out onto the road?

What size of head is on the jubilee clips,7mm hex or slotted for a flat screwdriver?

How could you tell which of the jubilees was leaking and what order did you tighten them in?

How much coolant was in the header tank and what temperature was it at?also how long ago did you top it up?

Last thing,did your flip flops have oil resistant soles?

I went up there today (got bus) spent hours but got ti home no problem ! had to buy more clips at B&Q as ones I had kept spinning and not getting tighter.
drove it home, drives absolutely fine, no strange noises, no burning smell, nothing wrong at all ! In under 2 years the oil light has come on about 5 timers mainly different problems regarding this pipe, but every single time I have noticed right away and switched the engine off immediately like a second or 2 later and has been perfectly fine !! I'm lucky that I have noticed right away but not so that the light came on. same with water pipes, had about 10 times in almost 2 years leak/burst and caught all before disaster.

why change oil ? was low and I kept topping up with new oil while trying to fix it so all old oil will be out the system.

why should I not work on my own car ? Over the past 6 months my car has required basically a full suspension rebuild and brakes, glow plugs, radiator, e.t.c. and I have done all those repairs myself, no problems with any of the repairs I've carried out, no unusual noises, passed it's MOT e.t.c.

I have no training or qualifications in this industry of car mechanics, but I have self taught and learnt a lot and a lot of what is involved is common sense, I will certainly not quit doing repairs on my car, I'd rather not have to repair anything on it but if needs be I am more than willing to fix the car myself and capable of doing so.

btw, here is a short video of the bolt in question and why it took so long to do it.

1 thing is for sure after all the oil leaks its had in the last 2 yrs as you say the underside will never rot! Next time just take the clocks out and remove the bulb for the oil pressure light and keep driving ��job done no more scary light and more oil to top the underseal up

Because of the lack of oil, it's the qualities of the oil that will have degraded as it will have got hot also like I said most likely bits of filings in the sump.
The oil light comes on usually when the damage has been done.
By all means keep fixing/bodging the repairs yourself but it sounds like you'd have saved yourself money having a professional look at it and repair it correctly.

With all the times this has happened and all the metal filings leaked out of this engine I bet warrington and the surrounding area currently looks like someone ram raided a glitter factory.
