Are you sure you did not see grey smoke burning off the oil from the pcv from long idle since I don't think you had the catch can on when it happened correct?
Correct I didnt have the catch can on. It was a lot of smoke and maybe it was grey but it certainly started really rough idling a few minutes in. I'm wondering if an injector is stuck open and or if the turbo is leaking oil.
