Is oil getting past turbo or coming from engine?
The one thing I know for sure is that oil is coming out the exhaust, I can actually see it sitting in the exhaust tips.
But it doesnt smoke all the time, its intermittent. Sometimes at idle, sometimes when I take off, but not always.
A local shop is leaning more towards the turbo because it is intermittent.
Any chance it could be coming from the engine? Maybe just when under boost? I say this because I've noticed when smoke starts coming out the exhaust, it jumps a bit at idle. It drops to about 500rpm then raises to about 1200rpm before settling back down, but again, it doesnt do it all the time.
Still accelerates like a bat out of hell, and I hear no unusual sounds from under the hood. No hesitations whatsoever under normal driving conditions.
I only have about 200 miles since the build - Stock motor, 11psi tune, PTE5858 turbo.
Any thoughts?
