Diagnose a 2.7T with blown turbos please. Symptoms are:
When it happened, a huge cloud of white smoke came out of the exhaust (oil burning). I think the turbos are leaking engine oil into the exhaust, meaning they're blown, but I'm no expert, and I want to be 100% sure before I order my k04 kit.
When we parked the car (a couple of blocks after the cloud of smoke), oil was dripping from the exhaust. Haven't started the car since, and not planning to
Blown turbo(s), right?

Typically a head gasket won't leak oil into the exhaust...
But... you could always check the oil to see if it's milky. That's a easy check to seee if you're blowing oil into the cooling system...
Keep in mind this is not a Guaranteed check of a head gasket.
If you think it's a head gasket, do a leak down test on all 6 holes. If you're losing pressure, listen to: the intake, the exhaust, or the radiator. If you hear air hissing, or bubbling, you've got problems.
