I plan to vapor clean all the area to help identify where the leak comes from and take the car to the dealer perhaps next week. Despite having only 34,700 Km the car is off warranty. A prior inspection request was made by the 30,000 Km inspection and the service manager ruled it off as dripping from a previous oil change.

Has anyone encountered such a leak on a D5 such as ours?
I have the same problem with my late 2011 XC60 D5244T15 - it appears that oil is leaking from the turbos - possibly a PCV problem but I can't find anything to confirm this.

Some suggest the oil leak is from the turbo return line and others suggest turbo seals. I've seen faulty PCVs do this before on other brands (I'm a fully qualified toyota tech). Just want to see if anyone else has seen this oil leak before I get on the tools.
