While doing a routine look under the hood today I came across oil pooling in the vally right in front of the turbo, this is new (within the last week) I am thinking it is coming from the oil line to or from the turbo? Anyone have this issue that can offer some insight? I have a picture I will try and post. TIA

Sounds like the pedestal gasket must be leaking. check to see if the pedestal bolts are tight. Not really any other oil in that area.

UPDATE : Dealer says the cause is the O-Ring on the HPOP is leaking. Going in this week to get fixed ...

I just literally had a post on this a few days ago. The o ring on the hpfp is the cause I have, I guess this gives me a reason to upgrade to a 2015 pump.

Or just change the o ring, it's worth less than a dollar...
