My N54 encountered the exact same problem.

Since mine is a CPO, I took it in for repair. At first they replaced some VANOS components and some ledges/bearings. That still didn't do the trick...After they noticed that their was significant play in the wastegate...They chalked that up as the culprit.

End result? Two brand new turbos and oil lines...Car runs like a champ now.
