roachburger Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 Dunno what's going on I start the car, ticks over fine no smoke, lovely on or off boost or when driving as soon as its warm and I stop and leave the car to idle I'm engulfed in nasty white smoke ..I've got no mayo in the rad or rockerNot using any fluidsOils clean and was changed a week ago along with filter.I snapped the pcv on the rocker and it gave me some lovely blue smoke so I blocked the inlet hole and dug out the pcv and put a breather pipe in.It's calmed down but still loves me.My intercooler pipes are clean and dry. On a ct9 standard wastegate, no boost control, 0.6 bar, downpipe and maybe 2" straight through exhaustAnyone got any thoughts ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
daniel_g Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 White smoke suggests water, so its probably either condensation or coolant. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
roachburger Posted June 9, 2013 Author Share Posted June 9, 2013 Yeah its too thick to be condensation .. and it doesn't appear to be using any coolant, this is why I'm blagged, anyone got a picture of the inlet pipework aka coolant pipe I know its a common mix up Quote Link to post Share on other sites
