I got a reflash from I-speed, I lauched the car pretty a couple times, now after driving for a while the car smokes (not always though). I noticed that the engine oil was a little low and added some. That was yesterday, haven't drove the car since.

Any ideas? I thought maybe oil, or exhaust leak?

Thanks,

you notice where the smoke was coming from? just yesterday i noticed i had smoke coming from my turbo smelling like burnt oil. replaced the turbo and all is better again

 

yeah the smoke is coming from the back of the engine bay. dunno if it's the turbo though you just replaced the whole turbo?

 

yeah just replaced the whole thing last night. my guess was that the seals on it got burnt up or something causing oil to leak through and burning the oil (causeing smoke). my oil was super low, so i am not sure what caused what but porkchop said it was most likely the turbo and mpj mike agreed as well. so i went ahead and swaped the turbo and changed the oil. drove to work today and to lunch and i haven't had any problems.

if the smoke smells like burnt oil, then i bet thats what it is. or there is the possibility of one of the oil lines came a little loose or something and its just leaking onto the block and burning off. so check to see if you see any loose oil anywhere on the engine.
