Thanks to all that posted a follow up.
Update.
Yes, I do use Mobil 1 per my service writer/advisor at my dealer.
I change my oil every 5K miles.
No blue/white smoke. If there were, I just did not pay enough attention--my own fault, but I did look.
I have looked many a time at different hours of the day.
No leaks that I can see, and my dealer's service writer/mechanic can't find any also.

I went to a garage in the city right by a junk yard, and its owner upon seeing my car & took a short test drive, told me it is my turbo.
YOU THE MAN John Davies.
It will be ready later today? I will let you know in a few week to report on oil consumption. I drive about 150-200 miles a day around Long Island & NYC. The best part so far in addition to your kind advice is: there is even a warranty for his work, wow. Much better than my dealer. I have to go back time and again for some thing small.

A few more sentences of non-sense about me; I am 6'7" 250lb. It has been extremely difficult to find a car which I fit. My 9^5 with sun roof has more headroom--I have to tilt my seat back a few degree--than my father's Lincoln Towncar/no sunroof, wife's BMW X5/yes sunroof, and sister's Toyota Tundra pick up/no sunroof.
Best seats, lots of pickup for a turbo 4, LOVE the way my car feels on the road. Other than this oil/turbo problem, I love my car.
Before I turn to this site, I almost trade my 9^5 in for a Honda Accord.

Thanks to all again.
