Coolant issue
 
1 Attachment(s)
Hey im having and issue with my coolant escaping. I have managed to narrow it down to what I suspect is the outlet from the turbo. I'm not really sure what the issue is tho maybe it's an o ring?? I have attached a picture for reference if someone could help me out I would really appreciate it [ATTACH]12177[/ATTACH]

Tried tightening it? It has 2 alloy crush washers that seal the banjo fitting.

havnt touched it wanted to get advise first could this just come loose at any time??

Looks like it has been changed to a blue alloy banjo fitting so probably loose. the factory fitting is steel and doesn't come loose.

so it looks like the fitting is cracked i am going to try to find a way to pipe it straight instead of going straight down next to the bell housing
