Hey guys, yesterday my brother reversed onto a kerb and damaged the rear exhaust pipe.almost completely restricting airflow....engine was working fine until last night when it suddenly started to smoke really bad.on checking there was no oil in engine rear pipe was oily and found lots of oil in turbo outlet. What exactly am I looking at here?

I'd strip the front/whole exhaust, turbo and air inlet off and have a look. I guess it's possible that the bump pushed the exhaust forward at the turbo end and possibly broke or blocked something, maybe the oil feed line to the turbo. Pure guess ..

I'd say blockage caused high back pressures damaging Internals of turbo

So I saved myself the problem of doing an instant rebuild....and bought one from turner engineering....have plans to rebuild soon...back pressure suck...every seal blown out...thanks to everyone for the advice
