  1. The oil is burning out of the exhaust. I have noticed it use too much. Unfortunately it rained all day and my other project takes my garage space (first world problems) so I haven't had the chance to drop the down pipe but I plan on it today when I replace the uppipe. I noticed those but they're slightly harder to get to. How much oil would be a normal amount to get to everything? A lot came out when I opened the lines at the turbo and housings. I really hope it's not that deep of an engine issue. As for the OCVs that was something I wasnt aware of. What problems does it cause?
  2. I replaced both ocv with beckney-something (sorry I cant remember the name). I looked everything over again and one prong was bent on the passenger side actuator. I bent it back so it actually clipped into the plug. I feared it was an oil issue so I changed it and cracked the lines open at both actuators and the turbo banjos and oil gushed out. When I changed the oil there was no metal or debris. It was just dark and loose. There were also no small metal filters. Since my post the car smokes for about 2 minutes when cold then after that it doesn't smoke all day. Its blueish so I'm assuming its oil. The turbo doesnt make any odd noises. Maybe it's just turbo seals? I would think that would be continuous smoke even after it warms up. I also noticed that when it's cold it idles to about 1500 rpms and very slowly drops over time. It still has the same problem of almost dying after it idles down off a rev. Thanks for the info so far.
  3. I just bought my first Subaru. It's an 05 legacy gt. I got what I thought is a decent price because it had a speed sensor code and a cam position code. I've replaced both solenoids and put fresh oil in it but still have the codes P0011/P0021 when I use the code reader. The check engine light is on as well as abs. I assume the abs is for the speed sensor. If anyone has any idea what my next move should be please let me know. Any advice at all is appreciated.
