Checked fluid levels this morning and found evidence of coolant having leaked from the pipe into the front of the turbo.

The coolant level in the header tank is fine but there is quite a bit of dried up coolant around where the pipe goes into the turbo and where it has run down onto the exhaust.

The car is going in to the garage later this week anyway but just concerned it may go bang before then.

Car is 10 months old and ive done 12k, has anyone else had this problem?

Did a search but most threads were about Mjet turbos going

A fair few 500/GP Abarth owners have reported this and IIRC it's the banjo fitting on the turbo that leaks, it needs no more than tweaked tighter.

The car will not go bang, just keep an eye on coolant levels and top up as appropriate until it is fixed by Fiat.

Had this problem on my t-jet GP ! All fixed and replaced under warranty ! Was it leaking from the end bolt ?

Thread back from the dead!

Mine was all fixed by Fiat, had to replace a seal, thats all

Yes the seal behind the front bolt of the turbo coolant pipe ! They replaced the whole coolant pipe and seal in my case
