OMP Question

I am trying to figure out why I have oil leaking out of my turbos and being burnt off, creating tons of smoke coming out of my exhaust. I replaced the turbos with newer ones that were working just fine, and I am still having the same problem. I am about to change the PCV valve from the oil fill to the UIM. I am not sure if it could be my oil metering pump injecting too much oil. Does that ever happen if it goes bad? My check engine light hasn't come on so I am not sure if that’s my problem. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

By "newer" ones you mean that they have been rebuilt or they are just the same ones except with a less miles on them? You could blown another turbo. It is a common problem when you buy used parts.

They are used of my friends FD. I doubt that I blew them already unless starting your car and letting it idle can do just that.

There's only one way to find out where an oil leak is. That is to get under the car and follow the trail. It could be as simple as a bad gasket to as complicated as replacing a bearing or two.
