88 760 turbo itermitantly burning oil

Post by rmcmighty »

I am thinking my Turbo is on it's way out. When i accelerate i get a big puff of smoke out the exhaust ... smells like burning oil and the car seems to get sluggish almost stalling and when you let off the gas it then seems fine until you hit the gas to get up to speed and it does it again !

Does anyone have any ideas ?
