Oh dear.... Not had a chance to look at it but I feel it's going to cost, I'm guessing either head gasket or complete turbo failure.

Spectacular smoke screen - now no car - Any ideas?
Had a bad engine failure today on way home from work in my Passat 1.9 4motion. Someone in front floored it so I thought yeah I'm up for that, got up to about 3800rpm ish and hear a bang and revs stop rising. Look in mirror and a huge smoke screen. As I'm finding a safe place to pull over oil light comes on, cams rattling and it stalls.
