How the heck does sludge like that build up within the intake system?
Is a replacement tensioner pulley available in "all metal" construction?
Ken,
It is a turbocharged engine ... Astra 1.9L SOHC Turbo Diesel. I will speculate that the turbo bearings are lubricated via pressurized engine oil and then further speculate that the turbo shaft oil seal is no longer 100% effective.
I am sure Darren is looking forward to resolving that issue
