some problems with oil

problems ive got

grey smoke when i first start up the car,lasts about 30 secs

 

1,smokey when i leave my car run at idles for about 15 mins

puff of smoke usually last 30 secs( grey smoke,not black,blue or white)

 

sometimes i get a puff off smoke when i put my foot down,this is not very often tho( grey smoke,not black,blue or white)

 

2 goosehonk and a high pitch noise from right turbo( i think its the turbo?i only hear the high pitch at 0+ boost)

 

after doing an oil change.

 

i noticed oil on lower oil feed pipe(gasket to right turbo)i couldnt see oil any higher.

 

i noticed oil coming from front,area around fan belts, im guessing its the fly wheel,oil leaking ,not much,from inbetween the flywheel and engine.

 

im guessing its the fly wheel but i am really guessing,if you lay directly under the car its the large cog

 

 

any help with these problems will be very much appreciated

 

my thoughts are

 

1,turbo going bad(reason for this is high pitch noise,oil from lower of turbo,maybe goosehonk-- recirs not working and im getting back pressure?)

 

2 oil leak at front,(would bad pcv valves cause pressure build up and this is the reason for leak at front and maybe turbo oil leak)

 

any help from you guys would be appreciated thanks JZXTURBO

Older members don't diss me here but WTF is gooseHonk?

well thats that, ive lost boost and ive blown a turbo .never mind upgrade time!

I am sure some one is trying to get a group buy on turbos. I know some one else whos turbos have gone may be cheaper.

 

 

Goosehonk is caused by air blowing over the recirc valve and causes an sound simalar to when you blow into a bottle. But on recircs it sounds like a goose honking. So you get a goose honk when you let off or change gear when the turbos are blowing.
