I have a 98 audi a4 1.8l the turbo was supposedly changed within the last 10,000 miles but the car has white smoke and running moderately rough.

Does the exhaust smell sweet? Does it ever go away? Do you lose coolant?

Generally, bad turbo would burn oil which would be blue. White smoke can be normal condensation, but can also be a bad head.
