Checked my car for oil tonight and it was near empty. I topped it up and took it about 20miles up the road. I noticed on the way that the car seemed to have very litte pull in the higher revs. when i stopped there was smoke coming from under bonnet and a smell of burnin oil. Stopped in a car park and checked. There is oil pissing round the turbo from somewhere between it and the engine. Cant see where cos oil is every where but it was empty again after that 20 mile drive! There is white smoke from the exhaust and when i took the oil filler cap off a puff of white smoke out of there too. Any body come across this kind of thing before? If it makes any difference its a 1998 version5 type r . Thanks, Graham
