DavidAshton Posted October 13, 2010 Share Posted October 13, 2010 Doesnt sound like turbo seals at all. White smoke suggests water, not oil. When oil seals go on a turbo they smoke on idle rather than boost and it would be blue and smell like burning oil.Id get someone to drive behind you and confim exactly what colour smoke is coming out when.Also smokes when cold?, what colour and smell? You sure its not condensation? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
