okay i've searched please help

okay i've definately have oil in my exhaust and what i'm reading is its blow by since i checked the piping to my turbo and theres no oil in it what can i do to try to fix it?

i've tried venting the oil filler neck both nipples for starters i don't know what else to do but oil in my exhaust = smoking like a mother!!!!

there is usually a thick film of oil in my exhaust after starting up from cold within 3 minutes or less.

Things to check:

*turbos
*OMP function
*engine (oil control rings may be kaput)

i thought checking the piping to the turbo for oil would have said they are good or do you mean actually check the turbo itself? i was looking to buy a stock omp working to replace mine anyhow to delete that from the list.

and the motor i'll try to get a compression test next month.

Before you consider it blown I'd check a few things. How many miles on the motor/turbos? Oil control ring failure really isn't that common except on really high millage motors. First thing I'd check is the pcv system. Hook it up properly and replace th pcv valve. Next pull off the turbo piping. Check for excessive oil. Also check for shaft play in the turbos. Once you have rulled out these things, it may be the actual motor.
