What is absolutely baffling me is why no one can seem to offer any suggestion to why I had to re-grease the turbo, half way through it's normal service interval with an amount well over the standard recommended amount (by COMP themselves no less)... with a Turbo that has since been confirmed there was a batch of them with some kind of zerk fitting issues. It still isn't sitting well with me and while I greatly appreciate Sasha's support, I can't help but hold onto some concern as to why it happened even time I give it a boot, and if I could just nail down the reason hopefully I can take some pre-emptive action and possibly help someone else identify signs to look out for.

Regardless. I've since cleaned off the marks, and keen to see if it'll happen again.
No insult was applied ... it was a observation and a statement on your picture .. there isn’t much that would cause it to look like that other than grease that didn’t go through the zerk ... you are complaining that you had to grease your turbo more than needed and then post a picture showing where grease didn’t go into the zerk and ask for clarification ... but refuse to consider that maybe you didn’t grease it correctly. .. what more do want anyone to tell you ... being the fact that you’re not a amateur and this isn’t your first kit or platform.
