Thanks for the update. I was going to say turbo related just because of the amount of oil it was drinking every couple hundred miles. Curious about the oil change history since I wouldn't expect clogged lines coming off the turbo if normal oil changes were done.
This is one of the reasons why I'm going to put some Berryman B-12 into the crankcase a couple hundred miles before my next oil change. CarFax showed the first 4 or 5 oil changes on my previously-owned 134k miler as being done every 15k miles or so. That's way more miles than I would've done it at, especially on a turbo-charged vehicle.
