i have some slight smoke coming out of the exhaust when idle.

only does it evry so often and then stops, my mani is blowing at the min could that be the problem or would it be a turbo problem??

when hot or cold? what colour is the smoke?

 

[rinseep82]

when hot and its white

 

[glanza97]

seals on your turbo Im guessing matey..

 

[JasonGlanza]

coolant level is fine? white could be coolant burning off. what it smell like?

 

[rob.94.gt]

i think white is water and blue is oil so its not the turbo i think

If you leave it running on idle when warmed up, does the smoke keep coming out or does it stop after 5-10 mins ?

 

[rinseep82]

it starts and stops only does it for bwt 30 seconds and then stops

 

[JasonGlanza]

if the turbo, it will smoke continuosly on idle i think and smokes bluish in colour and smells of oil burning too

 

[Blak_Mamber]

it starts and stops only does it for bwt 30 seconds and then stops

Turbo seals would keep chucking out smoke mate & stink of oil. Rules that one out then.....
