I have a '99 S70 AWD which is fitted with the GLT low-pressure turbo.

Ive noticed that between oil changes when i check the dipstick the oil level is low and i need to top off.

Ive had the car checked out by local mechanic, and the report was that the car was "leaking oil through the air duct turbo tube" and they tell me to just replace the turbo altogether. Well im low on cash at the moment and that really isnt an option right now.

Could it be just the turbo drain seals causing the oil level to drop between oil changes??

aside from that the car run perfectly fine, turbo works and boosts like it always does, and there is no blue or black smoke from exhaust under hard acceleration
