i just got back my car and its still in the shitter . it smokes pretty bad on idle , but i wanted to know if it is the turbo is there anyway this smoke could route itself to the head , because it got bad enough today that when i took off the oil cap smoke came out,
 
Yup, mine would smoke a bit when I took the oil cap off. When I replaced my turbo everything went back to normal though.
 
Of course it will smoke, Oil gets through the bearings and is pushed out the compressor into the intercooler pipes, into the intake, and starts to burn it. How many miles on the turbo. I rebuild of the turbo will solve it. Very easy, If you need help or want someone to do it, Hit me up
