Chops Posted August 5, 2013 Share Posted August 5, 2013 Hey peeps, I need some advice on a problem i have! Occasionally, when sat still for a min or two, things behind me get hammered with a cloud of white smoke as i pull off . is this likely to be a turbo oil seal problem? if so whats the best plan for repair?

Chops Posted August 5, 2013 Author Share Posted August 5, 2013 Just checked it, its nice and full. Maybe its something else? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Liam_D Posted August 5, 2013 Share Posted August 5, 2013 White, is normally water related as said buddy. Does it smoke on overrun at all? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Chops Posted August 6, 2013 Author Share Posted August 6, 2013 (edited) No, it occasionally might belch smoke after sitting at the lights or sitting after a bit of a drive about. I mean its quite rare for it to, but noticeable when it does. it smokes very slightly when u turn it on after a day or two of sitting too, I just thought that was water in the zorst evaporating so I've been ignoring it.

rinseep82 Posted August 6, 2013 Share Posted August 6, 2013 Is it thick mate because the seals on the exhaust side of the turbo makes white smoke also Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Chops Posted August 7, 2013 Author Share Posted August 7, 2013 resonably thick but you can see through it. stinks a bit, lol. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
