Sheefa Posted December 31, 2006 Author Share Posted December 31, 2006 Pete, you could be partially right there - having a few complications at the moment. I'm building up the 'reserve' list just in case things go really tits up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wazz72 Posted January 2, 2007 Share Posted January 2, 2007 I get white smoke for a few minutes usually more on cold mornings. Ill probably start to panic if it turns green or yellow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supra-Dupra Posted March 16, 2007 Share Posted March 16, 2007 If the car was producing a small amount of white smoke even when warmed up is this to do with the VSOS, or the Turbo seals ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes and No. I don't think there's any straight answer tbh. I believe my oil seals on my turbos are going, number 2 anyway (no smoke on number 1) as it pissed out smoke about 2 weeks ago. Leaking oil into downpipe is what Greg @ Turbofit said was the likely cause. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sheefa Posted March 17, 2007 Author Share Posted March 17, 2007 Yes and No. Turbos are under warranty still from Envy so they're being replaced (the oil seals) for free Just got to pay for Turbofit labour Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
