So here's the problem I'm having. My ko4 blew two weeks ago. I bought a new turbo from gpopshop.com, put that in a week ago. The car was smoking for a while cause I figured there was a bunch of oil and other crap in the exhaust and it had to burn out. I did two seafoam treatments through my intake lines to help clean it out. Now I'm not getting any smoke out of my exhaust while I'm driving. When I first start the car there is no smoke. After driving the car a bit and letting it warm up, if I stop at a stop light or just let it idle, white/blue smoke comes out of my exhaust and it smells like burning oil. What would cause this problem? The turbo is brand new and if it was leaking oil into my exhaust, wouldn't that happen when the turbo is stressed most under boost? Is there still oil in the engine that hasn't burnt and is burning up from the blown turbo? I checked my oil and it's a little overfull on the dipstick. Would this cause the smoke? Performance is not lacking at all though. The turbo hits hard and pulls well and smooth. It's just anoying that when I'm at a light, people give me dumb looks like there's something wrong with my car and I don't know it. Please let me know if anyone has any ideas. Thanks!
