Default Smokey issues

Hello fella's,
I'm new to the site and i am from stoke on trent UK. Just bought myself an Audi A6 2.5 tdi v6 which has really suprised me with its power and performance.... However under acceleration she is really smokey, kinda like a bluey white smoke. Am i right in thinking the Turbo seals are shot and its new turbo time ?
The thing i dont understand is that all of the power is still there, it just smokes real bad.

your welcome

could be the turbo seals, or maybe valve seals?

how much oil is she eating? does the turbo have play in the shaft?

TDI = turbo diesel injected -- Gotta look at the fuel mixture if you are not using oil.
If you are using oil do you have the corect oil in it?
