Bought a gorgeous MS6 two days ago. Took on extended test drives to listen and look for common problems that I found on this forum. Everything worked great.
-Today my A/C stopped working, and I got that large amount of smoke from tailpipes at idle. The turbo is not making any sounds and pulls hard, but the smoke and burning smell were terrible. I read the posts that say I can change my oil to 5W40 synthetic which I will do this week, but why would my A/C suddenly stop working at the same time I started smoking? As you can imagine I'm pretty worried I bought a lemon. Any help would be much appreciated.
 
You have the dreaded smoking turbo. Which means you Delaware are bad. If you car has less then 70k mileage take it to the dealer there is a tsb for replacing it. As far as the ac goes I would check your fuses first.
