    New poster! (less than 10 posts)

    Blue smoke is of cause burning oil which could be one of many things

    Pistons
    Piston rings
    Valve stem seals
    Valve guides
    Breather system
    Turbo oil seals
    Turbo oil drain blocked kinked
    Engine overfilled with oil
    Excessive oil pressure to turbo, pressure relief valve stuck
    Headgasket blowning into an oilway

    Depends when the engine smokes might give ya a clue
