i noticed today when i drove in my sisters car, that my TGP when my dad drove it was billowing white smoke out the back for like, 2 minutes then never again that day, i had it happen a couple weeks ago too, just for a few minutes, and no more, and it doesnt run wierd or anything, would this be the Turbine Shaft Seal or what?

This is going to be embarrassing easy once I tell you but, if it’s the engine then your o2 will show oil (check it right while its doing its smoking thing, shut off the engine first :lol: ). If it’s the turbo exhaust side then the o2 will be clean/no oil, assuming the compressor side of the turbo is not leaking which does not happen often at all, not nearly as much as the turbine side leaking.
