Default Left Side Turbo Oil Reservoir

I'm looking to buy a new left side turbo oil reservoir. I have had two shipped in from Germany by Porsche. First time we rec'd two rights. Second re-shipment was for another right. If anyone has a source I would appreciate it. Perhaps one you guys on the left coast might have access to one. The local dealers we've called here in FLA don't have any in stock. Thanks much.

Are you talking about the left sided auxillary oil cooler that piggybacks onto the air conditioning equip? If so, I sourced mine from Cargraphic. Hope this helps.

Call Sunset Imports and ask them to check the inventory levels of every dealer in North America. Your local dealer can do the same but for some reason (unknown to me) usually refuse, don't bother or unaware that they can. Have you tried the usual suspects PorschePHD or Viperbob? They might also have a source.

Seems like a part that would be very satisfactory used, perhaps Kevin has some off bad turbos?

why do you need this ? are you leaking there? If so I think you may want to try to replace the gaskets between the sump and turbo body . I was leaking there and we replaced the gaskets and O rings and now not a trace of oil. I am just guessing that is your problem. IF not please let us know.

i donated my originals to a friend who had upgraded to GT1's and needed new ones in the process. he needed them quickly for a local event and couldnt get them in time. no big deal normally but with snafus in getting replacements i thought someone here might have an idea where to find them.
