Way to copy my post lol. At least you're relaying accurate information.

I said, don't know how your set-up is but if you like most, I have like a flex-hose running from air cleaner set-up to turbo's "mouth". If you look in yours Im positive you'll find your turbo's "mouth" is spitting up oil, probably whole bunches in there. Now, part of the smoke problem is the car warming up, contributing, burning all that oil in your hose too that's really not suppose to be there. Your turbo runneth over, need to replace gasket, rebuild, turbo.

Engine smoke only at idle usually will be leaking valve stem seals. This will happen when the motor starts getting a bit tired. (usually starts appearing after about 80k miles)

The other causes discussed previously in this thread will only usually happen when you are on boost, or standstill to heavy acceleration, and you will see smoke on even relatively new cars.
