If it's the turbo (exhaust side) seal saying bye bye......be prepared to tow it when it fails completely.... you'll know,it'll smoke like a biatch and rapidly drain the sump!

also check coolant.....could be a head gasket on it's way too.

I'd play safe and not drive it unless I absolutely had to.
Yeah... I check the oil before and after everytime I drive... Its better for anything other than the engine to give way...
