could be the turbo on its way, how mechanically minded are you? could you take a turbo hose off?

like the Gman said best to check your turbo.....your burning oil from somewhere and turbos' a prime suspect......how long did it take to clear.....a minute or 2 on firing up or longer?.....was it a big cloud under exceleration?

To my mind thats gotta be the turbo.....not my area really, I tend to take 'em off, but you do need to get it looked at cause if it gets bad enough it can run your engine flat out all on its own
Dont know what your up for doing yourself but there's plenty here that could walk you through it better than me........must be loads of info if you do a searchbrianbrianyi

What was the temperature outside? My DHSE doesn't smoke but my old Pajero used to smoke like mad on a very cold start.
