At this oportunity ( the pic that I postes in page 1 ) I get some watter inside the box .. a little at bottom, I can dri it with a cloth.

I'm pretty sure that is maybeimposible seal all the air box .. but in maybe 5 or 10 min that be under water works fine.

yep, when the lid is on properly it takes a while to get any real amount of water in but when the top is not secured properly then it only takes seconds...

That thing is pulling alot of CFM even at idle.

$20 on the turbo. Two reasons:

A) Oil smoke is black, Fuel smoke is black
White smoke is a headgasket
Blue smoke is almost always a turbo.

I've blown enough turbo's playing with my sports cars to know the difference.

B) When you submerged it you say the turbo wasn't spinning... this is incorrect, the turbo is spinning the moment you turn the car on. It may not be spinning fast enough to put out any boost but it will be doing near on 20k rpm at idle. Especially with a 4 litre diesel feeding it.

C) The turbo went from 20krpm to nothing in a fraction of an eye. What happens when you hit a river crossing at 40 and the water goes through yoru radiator into your fan? Imagine this happening inside the casing of your turbo. I imagine you have power loss from your engine. The turbo itself will be very hardy being a factory item but it is nonetheless rooted.

Cheers

PS. Feel free to rip me if it turns out to not be the turbo!
