Message	90' TT 60k has been smoking a little on startup and the mechanic who just did my timing belt sais that it is turbo smoke and nothing out of the ordinary and said that a slight bit of oil might be slipping by the seals in the turbo and that going back to conventional oil might solve this and still be ok for the rest of the car. Has anyone done this or is it not recommended to switch?? Thanks in advance...
