another thing to check mate is the oil breather filter mine was smokin once and changed the filter and no more smoke or it might be your rings has the turbo got any play init?

martinmilne

mines done the same loads of play in shaft can it be fixed or does it mean new turbo i thought it would be but now thinkin it could be fixed or is it not worth it ??
