Drove home from work last night no issues. Go to go to work this morning, start the car, all seems fine. Going down the hill from my place and go to stop and I notice it's taking a lot of effort to use the brakes, pedal feels hard. Turn around to go back home and check it out and notice I have no power going up hills, seems like the turbo isn't kicking on.
Get back, scan the car, have P0299 for underboost, do some reading and have read about the line cracking between the vacuum pump and booster so I'm checking that line out, remove it to see if anythings cracked and when I disconnected it oil started coming out, checked the vacuum line at the resivor and that's full of oil too.
I've looked at all the lines and can't see any cracks, the car ran last night with no issue. Any idea on what broke and why I have tons of Oil in the vacuum system?
Any advice is appreciated, thanks.
