What do you mean by "minor oil fuming"..?

Oil fumes escaping from the air intake, white / blueish smoke come from the exhaust?

All cars will burn oil, just depends on how visible it is on the dip stick...

I ll check 4 smoke 2 morrow .On start up , gear changes or high revs ?

Pull the rubber intake pipes off the turbo's and see how much oil is pooled there. If theres is a fair bit then it's (probably) oil getting pumped out of the cam cover breathers into the intake system, and through the PCV valve. Mainly happens with high RPM and or excessive blowby.

Cool!

On start up, don't get confused with vapour / condensation coming out while the exhaust is heating up.

Vapour / condensation is white in colour or mist.

After start up, take it for a drive then park somewhere and check the exhaust.
