This could also explain the high oil consumption..

You should have the oil analyzed = looking for metal - ring - bearing particulate.
A compression test is not needed.
A leak down test might have value.
An engine flush is reasonable, if there is still a mass of sludge in there.

X2 there was no mention of the current and previous oil pressure so if you have good oil pressure you may have caught it in time and only need a turbo rebuild.
The fact that it starting easily sounds encouraging as far as compression goes and there was no mention of rods knocking.
