Well it's weird, now that we've thought about it it's spitting oil out the back , so we've come to the the conclusion it's a seal in the turbo, the weird thing is that It threw a service engine light :s, would Low oil pressure throw this light , we fonna uprev it Tommorrow to find out but as it sits right now we gonna expect the worst and assume its head gasket.

A headgasket at such low boost I would doubt that. I really hope its not that, what color is the smoke out the exhaust ?
