I'll search and upload some older videos if I find them, and no I didn't check the pipe after booting it but the CCV Filter getting clogged in like 2 months says everything. BMW Doctor on YouTube is absolutely certain all of this is CCV related, get vortex and if that don't work clean the CCV valve which to me is confusing.. What can I spray down there that's okay to go through the turbo, intencooler EGR etc etc I wish I knew all this before because I would have jet washed the bloody valve cover when I had it off lol
Haha! Good tip, I’ll give mine a good clean next weekend. I don’t even know how much oil I am burning as I have no flat areas to check it on a regular. So when I get a chance and it’s flat I take it. But I did about half a litre a few months ago. However, I don’t do huge miles anymore, so maybe I’d burn more with more miles. Will be a good 150 mile journey next weekend and it’s flat where’s I’ll be doing my car so can check it a few times. It was filled last weekend with the turbo replacement.

I just did the maf trick and my blue smoke reduced a lot, but it’s still there. So confused!
