Fiat Doblo 1.9 JTD - Heavily smoking Doblo 1.9 JTD 55 reg - Taipan

Hi All

We bought a smoking Doblo about year ago. Took tehturbo pip off and oout poured oil and tehre was play in teh impeller. So ist sat there for aor ages whilst other porjects were dealt with. Anyway we finally fgot round to this and we fitted a second hand "known good" turbo but it still smokes. Sort of a whiteish smoke but still smells like oil burning? Ran it for a while thinking it might be burning off residue, but as soon as you rev it out the smoke pours. Took the outlet pipe off the turbo and wiped around with clean tissue but dry as a bone?

We did flush out the intercooler and it had a good cup of oil in it, so we flushed the thing with petrol. and cleaned all the connecting hoses.

The cannister thing at the exhaust where it meets the manifold, what is that, a DPF? My father in law thinks that was full of oil.

It now has the engine management light on, which is in red, and wasn't on before we fitted the turbo? Unplugged the MAF, MAP and EGR but to no avail.

Thats as far as we got last night. Thoughts?
