How would you know if your oil seals had gone on the turbo

is that lots of smoke whilst driving or just when you pull up and it is ticking over, because that is wot i am geting, go for a normal drive, pull up then after about 30 seconds smoke starts, smells oily but the smoke doesn't linger much.

I used to get that with my old 200SX. Right before the turbo went. Smoke on startup, smoke whenever pulling up to a halt and letting it idle. Sounds like oil seals. What colour is the smoke?

it is like a grey colour. Doesnt do it on start up, only when been idiling for 30 seconds. Would it be better to get the turbo reconed? or just get a new turbo?
