1994 2.3 Blue smoke from 9000 Aero - blacklabel
There is a lot of blue smoke coming out of my exhaust and the check engine warning light has come on. The turbo has been incredibly noisy and reluctant to boost recently and the car has had much less power then usual. Any advice?

Have a look in Autotrader for your next car?


That sounds very like the turbo has expired. [Usually poor lubrication.]
