Hou Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 You sure it is white smoke and not blue? If it has a blue tinge it would most likely be your oil seals. Get a mate on the back seat to look for smoke on boost Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MARC MOSS Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 Same symptoms as when my gen 1 speed vision hybrid was dying a bad death...No smoke at all but then at random junctions I would stop and a massive cloud of white ish smoke then covered the car! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Whitenoize Posted June 18, 2012 Author Share Posted June 18, 2012 Thers deff no smoke at all on boost or on idle it seems to be when I go down gears and stop it just let's out a big puff and then goes away I gotMy mate to drive behind me and he said the was nothing till I slowed down and stoped but he thought it smelt like burning oil a bit tho the car isn't using any oil it's strange one I'm not sure what to do don't wanna buy a turbo if it's not that Are oil seals much I'd maybe change them and see if it sorts it out Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Whitenoize Posted June 18, 2012 Author Share Posted June 18, 2012 I think the mite b a hybrid on this car I had a standard glanza and sold it n bought this gt just as a run about and it's deff faster than the glanza it pulles alot harder mite get the turbo off at the wkend and get it reconditiond can't hurt Quote Link to post Share on other sites
