Inlet Manifold Gasket
#1
I've noticed lately that the turbo is not boosting as it should and is more audible than usual. There's also a bit of smoke on boost, and tonight I noticed a bit of oil down the back of the engine. Shining a torch from under the car I can see a little piece of manifold gasket that's blown out. Revving the engine I can see it blowing a little.

The annoying thing is that this gasket was replaced when I did the cylinder head recently. I bought OE parts, which came in a Peugeot bag but were Elring branded (which by my understanding is reputable). Anyone had this happen before? The head was done at the start of the year.

Changing this is a shit of a job thanks to the manifold studs, I suppose I can only be thankful that the exhaust and manifold have separate gaskets and not a shared one like some do Undecided
