And if this makes u feel better I had this done to me b4 now when ragging the car but I carried on driving it an it cleared lol
my first thoughts was turbo seals then stem seals but it went away an a year later never come back lol

Is it doing it constantly?

If its pushing out smoke it will be seals. Is there any oil inlet side (after the turbo)?

If not, it may be coming down the exhaust side.   :smiley:

Mine was bearings on the T3, the cam let go chucking loads of shrapnel into the oil in which then went through the turbo oil ways

I'd say seals gone on exhaust side too
