Well today after I got off of work I noticed my car was smoking pruty good when I was on the off ramp. When I got home I let it idle for awile in the drive way and it was just puffing out white/blue smoke. If I rev it to 2k it starts puffing out alot of smoke. Any ideas? I know it could be a valve seal or a craked valve guide or the turbo seal is blown But it makes boost so I dont think its the turbo...the egr valve Is blocked off by a block off plate so it isnt that. I checked the vent tube on the valve cover and thats clean
If i remember right white smoke is antifreeze burning and blue smoke is oil. Possible head gasket? I cant think of anything else that would be bad that would emit both of those.
turbo still makes boost and it hasnt over heated. I dont have a egr valve and it smells like fresh oil out of the exhaust. Im thing its a valve stem seal leaking of a valve guide craked any other ideas?

How do I rule out all the other things it could be before I tare into the motor? I checked the turbo and it has very minimal shaft play. The coolant looks brand new and it hasnt over heated. Are the valve seals comon on the 4g63 motors? Could I still drive the car like this if I had too?
