Hello folks,

I am looking for some advice on what to start checking with my 2009 MCS.

Here's a brief description of what happened. I was driving along one day and I wanted to get around another motorist so I romped on the gas. I felt the car lose power and MASSIVE amounts of smoke started blowing out the exhaust pipe. I limped it to the auto parts store and (probably mistakenly but I was stressing out) dumped two quarts of oil in it and limped it home because I couldn't afford to have it towed.

So... The dipstick currently shows too much oil. There is coolant in the reservoir. The oil looks like oil and not all milky and stuff. The car will start and run if I keep on the gas but as soon as I let off it dies. It still blows a ton of smoke.

I read it could be the turbo so I started pulling off intake hoses. All of them seem to have a little bit of oil in them. I then read it could be the PCV valve so I pulled both hoses off the intake and started it. It blows a ton of smoke out of both tubes.

I know enough to be dangerous but admittedly I don't really know anything. I'm looking for a little direction on how to diagnose my car. Please take it easy on me folks! I'm just trying to get my only set of wheels back on the road.

Thank you in advance to anyone who responds for your time and advice.

Eric

 

I’d suspect a turbo oil seal failure. That would explain both, the lose of boost and massive amount of smoke.
