Hi all, im new here and i am kind of having an issue with some blue smoke from the exhaust, when you drive it does not smoke but when i stop for a few minutes the car starts smoking.... and its not really heavy smoke but rather light and blue. i think this just started happening a few days ago and i dont know what went wrong. can you guys give me some posssibilities???

thanks

 

Sounds like you're burning oil. I had a similar problem a while back, although I hope for your sake this isn't the same situation. When mine was doing that it was because my turbo went out and it leaked oil into the exhaust, which led to the blue smoke. There isn't a whole lot you can do, other than to continue driving so you can burn it all out. I would suggest taking her out for a long drive on the highway, burn the oil out, unless it starts getting worse, then I would take her in to a shop or the dealer.

 

i have some possibilities.... 1st might be the turbo seals, 2nd the pcv valve, 3rd valve seals....4th might be the test pipebecause it looses backpressure, but was told that the turbo generates enough backpressure so maybe that wont be the case, i wish it would be the turbo cause i really want a turbo upgrade.. ha ha
