Thanks sb for previous help. After fitting new throttle body, car runs ok, no fault codes. but since the I get a big puff of blue smoke when I change gear. no smoke at any other time no matter how hard I press the car.
I bought the new breather kit but not yet fitted.
I also can hear the turbo whining.

at the time the garage fitted the tb, he also replaced the big breather hose with a piece of tubing to the cam cover. it is only since then that I get the smoke and increased oil consumption. previously there was no smoke at all.
