I keep adding engine oil on my 2006 BMW 530i, engine has no leaking. Any help?

Check exhaust smoke color when engine hot. If there is white smoke, there may be oil in the pipes. Means the valve seal is leaking oil into the cylinder. Another way to check is to look at the spark plug tips. If is full of soot like burnt oil then the oil is leaking into the cylinders.

If yours is E60 turbo, check the presence of residue oil in both the exhaust and intake turbine. If there is, the oil seals in the turbo housing is leaking oil. They do sell service kits for turbos.

Noticed a bit of smoke coming from under the hood. Opened to look and it seems there's oil next to the valve on my turbo.

Does turbo need oil? Very much so. It has parts spinning at 30,000 rpms or so, and the bearings require oil to live. Clean cool engine thoroughly, and then run engine to find leak.

My 2002 vw jetta 1.8 turbo is smoking from the engine and leaking oil. whats the problem?

The smoke is due to the leaking oil. there is a common problem where the oil hose that feeds the turbo leaks, and drips on exhaust. Open bonnet on cold engine and clean the rear part using degreaser of sprayer, start up the engine and let it idle while checking the rear . for better results i usually pull the car up on a white sheet of cardboard or paper so i can see where it drips or splutters the oil on top the paper. Turn off car about 10 minutes in and check under the car. the area where you see oil will tell you where to investigate further. Another common VW problem is the tappit cover gaskit that leaks from time to time. Remove plastic engine cover and have a look

Turbo oil leak into engine

if the turbo is leaking oil into the engine then you have an internal engine problem. the turbo works off of the engines exhaust , therefore if oil is getting back into the intake from the turbo then it is coming from the exhaust. posible worn piston rings or bad valve seals. it also could be a bad turbo bearing and seals letting engine oil leak into the turbo from the turbo oil lines from the engine and blowing back into the intake.

2000 VW new Beetle uses a lot of oil, but has no leaks, oil fouls sparkplugs

Do you have the turbo model? If so you could have a bad turbo. You may also have bad valve seals or piston rings. If you have a turbo you can remove the hose or pipe off of the outlet side of your turbo between the turbo and the intake manifold. If there is oil in it your turbo is leaking and will need repaired.

My 04 VW Jetta blew thick white smoke from tailpipe after freeway drive. No indicator lights came on, all oil leaked out (after smoke started)... is this engine or could it be just the turbos? Right...

A new turbo charger is about $340, but you can buy the bearings and seals and rebuilt if yourself for about $100

It is not hard, and it does not take long to do.

I normally do not bother with synthetic, but with a turbo charger, it might be worth it. What really seems to ruin turbo chargers the most is not letting them cool off before parking.
Once you turn off the engine, there is no longer any cooling, so the build up heat will burn up the oil and seals.
Run the engine for at least 5 minutes below turbo levels, before shutting down the engine.
