That's exactly the condition I have. I'm sure it's the turbo causing the consumption.
Which vacuum connection hose did he plug?? The EGR is up at the top of the engine on the intake manifold.
The consumption is fine, provided it does not bother you. In my case, I can smell the Rotella-T, especially right after an oil change. I can't fathom why the smell gets worse after an oil change, but, I'll probably rebuild the turbo and see if I can eliminate it.
