Title: Blue smoke :(
Post by: Scoobykiller on June 13, 2016, 05:24:39 pm
When i leave the car to idle for a bit say 5 min
And it gives out blue smoke and can be seen in rearview mirror for a bit it does clear away though until i leave it on idle again. But normal driving i dont really see any smoke.
Do you reckon it can be the turbo?
I know it cant be pcv as its got pcv delete
Thank you in advance for your help

Bullsh!t - stem seals will leak at their most under high vacuum conditions.
