Loss of power up hill in 4th 5th and 6th
Hi all can anyone help Everytime I'm driving up a long steep hill around 50mph and up so in top gears it starts to slow down can gear down to 5th or 4th and does not help then goes into limp mode. But when it does it it is also forcing oil out through the rocker cover gasket onto top of the turbo shield I can turn it off and back on and is fine again. I can set off and floor it in every gear and it's fine just as soon as I hit a long steep hill. Any ideas I'm lost. Actuator on turbo moves freely and throttle body flap moves free also????

Seams to be that turbo is overboosting
Could explain oil blow out too
I would put some wynns turbo egr clearer into the tank a week or 2 before your next hilly trip and see what happens.
It will need time to do its stuff before hand
