Hey guys. My 2007 TC is blowing a lot of blow by and blue smoke. The Supercharger had a bearing going out but I Dont know if that's it because it never did it before. Any help?

No. That's not the cause. You're burning oil. It's escaping into the combustion chamber. Few things: Rings are fried, cylinder walls are screwed, valve seals are toast, intake manifold is shot, or head gasket. Nothing fun to deal with. Sorry bro. Been there many times.

If you're an 07, would you be part of the oil consumption recall? If so, might as well get it tested at the dealership. If it turns out to burn too much, they are supposed to rebuild your engine.

That was little by little though. He's talking actual blue smoke; enough to recognize the color of the smoke. His consumption is substantial. This isn't the recall.

Just saying don't get too excited before they'll still turn you away.
