white smoke when tilted

Hey guys, i got this weird problem going on with my series 5 right now and i defenitely need your help. The problem is, when my car is on an angle(front is lower the rear)it starts to put out white smoke and i'm talking about alot of white smoke. But when the car is leveled or angled the other way around(back is lower than front) it doesn't smoke. Can anyone help me please...
thanks

I can't help you - sorry. But I have a wierd problem kinda like yours where if my car is on an incline (nose down) it starts fine, but if on an incline (nose up) for a few hours or so I cant get it to start. Whatever your solution becomes may help me too. Good luck.

Sounds like the turbo oil seals may be failing.
