Car testing gives "slow turbo spool and inconsistent idle" and slow oil leak

[RickyG]

title says it all, I installed the turbo on my new engine and when doing the vehicle test, the symptom I see is "slow turbo spool and inconsistent idle." Is there a way to fix that or is it just something we have to deal with until more features are added to the game?

I do also have a secondary symptom "there is a slow oil leak coming from the front of the engine" but I dont think thats the reason for the turbo issue. But if anyone does know the reason for the oil leak that would be great. IRL, I would just follow the trail of oil to the spot where its leaking but we dont see oil leaks in the game so it feels like it could be anywhere really

Try your front main seal for the oil leak and for the turbo spool check all your exhaust valves

[DDKennedy4]

and maybe your coil and spark plugs as well

[RickyG]

everything is brand new, so nothing has been used as of yet. So can you elaborate on the exhaust valves, coil pack, and spark plugs? @ddkennedy4

[DDKennedy4]

if there all new then that wont be the problem but if any of the valves are broken or any thing in the head is broken your turbo wont spool and do u have a oil pump gasket put in that would also cause a leak

[RickyG]

so I found one cause. For the turbo issue, I forgot to add one of the intake clamps xD I had all but one installed. As for the oil leak, I checked the front main seal, it is installed and as mentioned earlier, 0 for the usage. I unbolted the oil pan and bolted it back up along with the oil pump. However, I think it might be the front oil pan seal. Investigating now

[RickyG]

yes I have an oil pump gasket installed for sure

[RickyG]

ok I just found out why it had the slow oil leak. Turns out I forgot to install the Front Oil Pan Seal. hahahaha dammit cant believe I missed that!
