blue smoke.

Rather than start a new thread id say id bump this one up.

When I pulled away from a junction today I noticed that there was some blueish smoke coming from the exhaust and also when I was sitting in traffic today it started smoking aswell. There's no smoke while on boost at all, could it be the turbo oil seals that are gone? Car is driving 100% other than this.

my ct9 did this to when the seals were starting to go in the turbo first it would smoke a small bit on idol and sometimes when you take off at lights after a few weeks then it was getting worse especially when its warmed up and ticking over with the turbo timer on loads of smoke got to the stage when i take off at lights i couldnt see the car behide me it was like a train and smoked on boost then

changed the turbo and problem was solved
