Hello everyone I have an 07 LMM 4x4 with an air raid intake, a 5 inch mbrp downpipe back exhaust and an edge Evolution chip and I am having an insane oil leak out of my exhaust. There is no signs of oil leaking where it has been parked but I am getting excessive oil leakage. In about 50 miles I lost 2 gallons of oil so I have had to refill it a lot getting to a place to park it till I can get any opinions as to what is wrong. Is sending the low oil pressure turn off engine about 2 miles on after I start the truck and drive it and idling it had blue smoke coming out of the exhaust. Any help or suggestions are appreciated

May want to pull your intercooler tubes and see if they are all oiled up sounds like the seal is gone in the turbo possibly.

Welcome to DD

Well I thought it was the turbo but a buddy said to drive it a few miles with his tool hooked up and then cylinder 2 blew so now I finally know what it was and well anyone know a reasonably priced website or place to get a new engine? One with a payment plan would be awesome or in the region.

Blew?? As in cracked piston??? You need more info on what's wrong before you drop some serious coin on a replacement engine

If inj balance rates show insane numbers, check compression on that cyl and one other to compare. If your lucky it might be an injector.
Just had an LLY show +15.00mm3 balance rate on cyl 1, so i checked cyl 1 and 5 comp. both were 420psi. Swapped inj # 1 with # 3 and bad balance rate moved to cyl 3. Ordered reman injector, couple hours fix.
Miracles happen!

Will take a couple days

Towed the truck to a shop today to have them diagnose it I'll let y'all know what it was, not completely sure what was wrong chip just read computer when it shut off an it said fault in cylinder 2 so there are still many possibilities

when mine was blowing oil out the exhaust, it was my turbo seal. bought a used stock turbo from another member here and replaced it myself. only cost me $300. alot cheaper than a new motor.

Unfortunately

Well checked it out today and there was little chunks of tin/bronze looking metal in the oil liter which I'm guessing is a bearing that got flattened in the cylinder for being ran out of oil, just wondering what I all new to replace that the metal also got into, as of now I just know of the engine and turbo if anyone knows or has one for sale for an alright deal I'd appreciate it, thanks(ran outta oil due to turbo going out, so low oil pressure=check the turbo seal
