Getting this problem fixed now might be preferable to waiting, as the scenario gets worse. Excess fuel dilution of crankcase oil can cause bearing and seal failure in the turbocharger which allows the diluted oil to enter the intake air stream, this continues until the crankcase goes low, starving the oil pump and causing engine failure.
