Check your purge valve as instructed in the Haynes manual or factory manual.

If it checks out, your turbo bearings may be going out. Remove the intercooler and check for oil. Remove the stock precat/downpipe and check for oil. Excessive amounts of oil in either of these tests indicate possible turbo oil seal failure.

hey, what would happen is your purge valve is clogged? I broke the nipple off, and when gluing it back in I may have plugged the hole.

thanks
