lol i know i have an oil leak on my pan however i also know im burning oil some where in the engine. im pretty sure its the piston rings.

my questions are if it where the piston rings would i notice a drop in power? becaus i havnt.

second is if i do a compression test and every cylinder is ok then where else can oil be getting in from? the turbo? I checked the hot pipe and its fine and the intake side of the turbo looks good perhaps its on the exhaust side of the turbine?

yup a 3an one. btw if it is the turbo on the exhaust side whats the easiest way to tell, becuase i was thinking it may be hard to tell with all the black exhaust residue.. what what i be looking for.

i thought it was my cylinder/rings as well but im not so sure becuase there isnt a mass amount of blue smoke its mostly just whiteish as if the oil was getting heated not burned
