Blue smoke = burning oil.
White smoke = burning coolant. Get a pressure test done on your cooling system. More than likely you have a head gasket leak. Also have it tested both cold and hot. Because if it only leaks a little cold and a lot hot then you head is warping. |

This is mainly for the swapped folks that might come across a turbo leaking out the exhaust seals. It also causes white smoke. You most likely have a HG leak from what you are saying. -------------------- ![]() |
