2019 A250, i found oil leak under the turbo! ! need to replace the turbo!!
only with 1900 km on this new A250, (Canada) i found two drops of engine oil leak under the turbo, and blue smoke coming out from tail pipe when car stop at red light for 30sec-1 min, but NO blue smoke(at least i couldn't see ) at cold start and driving, only blue smoke at idle speed when car is hot.
the first week i got car, i saw some blue smoke, at that time i could find the reason, and now with more blue smoke and see engine oil leaking under the turbo, i think the turbo has problem. car is now in dealer for repair, i will update the progress as dealer fixing my car.
not sure the exhaust side leaking or compressed air side inside turbo, only 1900km on the car, i can only hope the oil burn issue will not damage the engine and particle filter down the line in exhaust system.
i got update from dealer, i need to replace the turbo!!!!! although it will cover under warranty, but ....
please see the image i have attached.

Seeing that you have written about the Mercedes A W177CAN JUST SAY IT THAT IT IS A GREAT DISAPPOINTMENT ON THAT CAR.
HAS A MERCEDES A250 4 MATIC AMG SPORT-2019 TAKES MAY 2019 FOR 20 MONTHS, IT HAS BEEN AFFECTED OVER 25 TIMES, I HAVE LOST BILL AT 15. I HAVE HAD ALL THE ERRORS THAT CAN BE GIVEN. 2 DAYS AGO, THE TURBON WAS SAW IN THE CAR AND AGAIN THE WORKSHOP'S VISIT SHOULD TAKE 1 WEEK AND GET ALL THE STUFF THEN THEY COUNTED 20-30 HOURS TO RETURN THE CAR. SO I ASSUME THAT IT'S NOT JUST TURBO FAULT ON THIS CAR IT HAS ROLLED 4000 MILES - SWEDISH MILES
Sorry to hear about the oil leaks and warranty problems. It seems Mercedes problems are common across their entire product range. Too bad for the brand and for consumers.
Unfortunately, these things happen. New parts can turn out to be defective. It's good to know that your MB dealer is taking care of the problem. Keep us posted on your progress.
