Truck blowing oil

I don't know if I'm on the right forum for this, but I thought I'd give it a shot.

I knew the turbo in my truck ('07 Freightliner) was going bad. I had a TA look at it and they replaced a clamp. For a while all was well until I got out of Los Angeles, then it started acting up again; a very high whining sound coming from the engine.

I asked if I could have th eload repowered in Ripon, CA, about 65 miles from the delivery, then I would try to drive the truck to the Freightliner in French Camp (Stockton) and get the turbo replaced. After the load was repowered, I tried to go to the dealer. I made a right out of the Flying J in Ripon, then I heard the turbo emit a very high whining sound, then it disappeared. Then just a wall of white smoke enveloped around the truck.

First thought: Turbo went out. Second thought. Park it. Loves on the other side of the street. Nowhere to turn around and get back to the Flying J. I got into the Loves and got a parking spot just as the truck shut down due to low oil pressure. I got out the truck, and slipped on the step. Thank God I use "three points of contact." Otherwise, I probably would have broken my ankle.

Oil was everywhere. And a lot of it. All over the truck, the trailer, and white smoke was still coming out of the oil-covered exhaust.

Do you guys think it's the turbo? Or something more? Any info would be great and thanks in advance!

 

Smokey, yes, I made sure I had enough oil before I started to leave. I always check that before I go anywhere in the morning.

Big John, I did not lose power until I started for the Freightliner. I sat for a day and a half waiting for the repower. Could sitting that long with a bad turbo affect the turbo?
