Unsafe Condition

Abrasive damage (chafing) has been found on oil pipe assemblies in the area of the torque oil pressure transducer on the engines of some PC-12 aircraft. Incorrect assembly after maintenance tasks can decrease distances between various pipe/hoses assemblies and adjacent components, leading to damaged pipes and oil leakages in the engine area.
