Thanks that's what a need to try and find out to make sure there's no oil in turbo but it still doesn't answer why me car has a serious alcohol problem of drinking all the oil out of the engine.

But a do appreciate all the help and replys thanks Graeme

If there is oil being burnt then you will have a blue smoke in usual black smoke of exhaust. The amount of blue smoke correlating to how much oil is being consumed. Either that or a physical leak. Other than that I dont know where its going.

when a start the engine a get black smoke sitting at idle rev the engine hard LOADS and LOADS of black smoke and it smells realy bad pure oil smell :think:

Thats it then, your getting oil in exhuast so its being burnt internally if you can smell it. It is looking for ways for oil in a degree of quantity getting consumed as you say you have ruled out turbo oil seals?

So what u saying is that the turbo seals have failed so a need to take turbo back and get new one in more or less words

If you have checked turbo and no trace of oil then it rules that bit out. However if this problem has appeared after turbo being replaced you have to wonder if it is the turbo at fault. Its oil under pressure due to rate of loss
