My 2001 9-5 LPT has been giving puffs of blue smoke on cold startups for 6 YEARS and the turbo is still going strong. I did a treatment with Auto-RX which helped with the puffs of smoke. I found I could get rid of them if I use pricey Redline 5w40 oil - I also have zero oil consumption running this oil. Mobil 1 0w40 is the worst for making the car smoke and higher oil consumption.
