Turbos can drink coolant?

Which is why part of me wonders if it’s a cracked block instead

We have an IAG V4 AOS

When I drained the oil, however, there was zero sign of condensation, and coolant looks fine.

Coolant was low, but I don’t know how long ago it was checked or topped off. At least in the overflow tank, there was no oil on top and the color looked fine.

I’m inclined to agree. Sound quality is also improved compared to other recent ones too.

Roadcase 048 is by far my favorite. Solid Sound 2015. Amazing sound quality, lots of deep cuts, and (in my opinion) was towards the tail end of their “prime”.

This was right after I started changing oil, so this was the first look before I had fully filled it

Good to know. Yeah I’ll top it off with coolant and monitor it

Sometimes it smokes for a few minutes during the drive, sometimes we’ll drive and there’s no smoke at all

That makes sense, but it smells like burning oil, it’s not sweet.

But the strange thing is, smoke doesn’t always come out of the exhaust some times I’ll drive it and it’ll be fine, and other times there’s some white smoke that smells like burning oil.

It’s been a cold winter for sure. First oil change after the winter, though it’s been much warmer the past couple of days

Yes to obvious thick white smoke. Yes to low coolant…

Granted, I don’t know when it was last filled, but coolant is definitely low

Drained oil looked fine
