4mm of play in turbo shaft yes i would say thats well and truely fooked, be very wary cos if the oil seal on the compesor side fails the engine can run on its own oil and that will very likely be the end of your engine aswell.

Well it certainaly aint gonna help mate, black smoke on excelleration is quite normal but could be worse cos turbo not boosting properly, the noise may well be the turbo blades rubbing on the housing.
Ide get it sorted asap before you damage the engine.
