in the last two months ive had to top my oil up 4 times because the light on my dash board has come on and the oil level has been low. also ive noticed on occasions that blue smoke is coming from the exhaust quite excessively.
a couple of people have said to me it could be the turbo seals which are faulty.
if it is this can the seals just be replaced or would i need a whole new turbo.
all help would be greatly appreciated.
thanks.

normally unless a dealer does it and even then they just replace the turbo, lot less labor cost involved and price is about the same.
