I have a scm 6152E (The ball bearing one) and it has only about 500 miles on it. About 100 miles ago it started to smoke from the bottom of the turbo. Found oil leak on valve cover gasket that got oil on the turbo and fixed that, but it still smokes.
I checked the lower intercooler pipe and there is no oil in it. There is no shaft-play. The turbo boosts fine up to 25psi.
There is no oil dripping anywhere. The only place that I see oil is on the bottom of the turbo. It is between the center section and the hot side of the turbo, right on the bolts. The oil is obvioulsy burnt and not liquid at all. I have cleand it but it still smokes.
Is this a sign of a blown turbo?
Thanks for your input.
