im assuming oil is leaking a bit and spraying on the turbo?? itsjust a faint cloud of greyish white smoke. its not thick or anything. it doesnt strongly smell of anything... just like.. smoke.

my oil pressure isnt too low, although at 3k revs it isnt up around 40 like it should be, or so the factory specs say it should be.

my temp gauge isnt climbing either and performance hasnt suffered at all.


any ideas? im scared to drive it

It's fairly common for either the cam covers to leak or the CPS to leak, spilling oil onto the exhaust manifold/turbo. If you take a close look you can usually see some sort of residue where it's burning off.
