Subject: Re: Replaced turbo on 9-5 - still smokes


Henrik, I drive mostly highway miles - not too many short trips. I change oil every 5k miles with 5W30 mobile1. I also suspect that my turbo never really caused the smoke, although I can't blame the piston's rings cause compression is within specs. Any idea what else could be causing this?
