Answer
John: I got to be honest here, I don't work much on cars with turbo. But if your car is smoking, that means that oil is getting passed the rings. So you need to do a compression check on your engine. Either get a repair manual at any parts store for around $20.00 and do it yourself or take the car to a shop. Explain what is happening and they will be able to help you. Hope this helps and good luck!
