if the oil is going out of the front side of the turbo...no noticable white smoke (and im talking 3/4 ltr per 100 miles!)

check the turbo piping for oil...if there is more than a smear turbo is on the way...

only so many places oil can go:-

out of the turbo (either smoky exhasut or oil in the tubes)

past the rings ( do a compression test)

external leak (wash engine off with de-greaser, run - check)

a rear main leak can show underneath the car (underside soaked!)
