So I put my car on the lift at my work last night and tried to find out why my car is puffing white smoke from the left tail pipe so much even at normal operating temp. As of now I'm suspecting oil burning in the turbo but I started up the car and raised it up. I noticed vapor/water puffing out between the gaskets of the downpipes to exhaust system. As I left the car sit for a bit longer the vapor/water went away and now there was a cloud of smoke coming out that driverside tailpipe again. I also noticed white smoke burning on the housing of the exhaust side of the front turbo but no burning on the rear turbo. hence the front turbo on my car does go to the driverside muffler with the way my exhaust system designed. any other ideas? I might just take it in to the dealership to have one of my buddy's take a closer look at the turbos because I'm really begining to suspect something there.
