Oil consumption same after headgasket. Indie did head because that's where he thought the oil consumption was coming from.
There is a small leak at the head and block interface underneath the exh manifold. (which I noticed when I replaced the turbo) My indie did the head gasket, said he needs to re-torque the head bolts when I told him of that. I don't think he did it because now he wants to replace the rings. Which is why I did the compression test. The plugs, at 12K, don't show any signs of burning oil. The do have some black soot on them, however. #3 kind of looks like it's burning water. Hm???
The turbo just seized one day, no warning. No smoke. I replaced with a good used one, reported 10k on rebuilt, but I don't know for sure.
I went thru the whole serp belt replacement stuff this week, new pulleys and tensioner. And the last two days it is smoking on start up in the morning, but not during the day.
