White smoke, NO OIL!!!112345

well, Im driving home on the interstate, my oil light comes on, so I pull over on the next exit. White smoke is coming out of the exhaust, and a lot of it. I check the oil, its low, so I add a whole bunch of oil. I cant get a very good reading because the oil is blowing up the oil stick. Well, I get back on the interstate, and what do you know, the turbo wont spool. I figured I fried the turbo from not having oil.

About two miles down I hear metal on metal, sounded like rings on cylinder. I pull over immediatley, and there's no oil. I add four quarts of oil, start it up and theres tons and tons of smoke and oil dripping out the exhaust, but its firing on all four cylinders.

I shut if off and get it towed for $250 back to my house.

WTF happened? maybe my turbo oil seals went bad? Would this cause it to lose that much oil

hmmmm i don't think it's the turbo seals. You would have smoke coming out of the engine bay also....

yeah, there was oil all over the engine bay. white smoke coming from under the hood.

then it is the turbo, but it might be more then that........ :thumbdown I think it's the right time for you to look for good 14b

white smoke coolant/watter
blue smoke oil
black smoke fuel


you probably blew a headgasket.. and due to not shutting it off right there. filled the crankcase full of water probably seized most of the bearings overheated the motor and fuct your turbo....

well, I can start the car just fine, and it fires pretty well. Just lots of white smoke

Maybe there's coolant leaking from the turbo?
