Smoke all around the turbo

Anthonydi · 04-23-2011, 02:27 PM

Green I read your thread from when you had the same problem and that sounds alot like what I have going on. I also noticed yesterday that when I parked the car to work on it I had just changed the oil and everything was topped off and now after a week and a half of sitting it is half a quart low and there is noting on the floor in the garage other than power steering fluid (ive got a bad leak) so the seals in the turbo are most likely gone but I am going to pull the intercooler and see what I can find in there. This is probably related to everything else but yesterday when I started it up the birdcage came on and I had topped this off when I changed the oil as well. Any ideas?
