If oil is low, find out why. it could be pissing out the back of the turbo oil seals causing the smoking. What colour is the smoke?

Smoke is like white m8.. If it is the turbo seal how would I pin point it so I know it's that

Tuned 2 weeks ago...I would be taking it back to the workshop rather than trying to self diagnose it on the internet where facts and lack thereof can mysteriously intermingle...

Surely the workshop will at least diagnose the issue if they only gave it back to you 2 weeks ago?

Sounds like an intercooler pipe leak to me... What was done 2 weeks ago?

white smoke sounds like turbo, need to take the exhaust/turbo off and see if there's oil in the exhaust chamber
