Hi all,
A little help from the guru's again would be appreciated.
My symptoms are;
Car blowing A LOT of white smoke at start up. This lessens as the engine gets warm. Once the engine is warm the bulk of it is gone but there is still some there.
Also, I am losing about 1 litre of water per day. This seems to settle out after 2 days (2 litres lost) and the engine does water temp hovers around 85deg C. I have always filled it up after 2 days so am not sure if it would continue to lose water after this.
On a positive note, the engine runs very well. No obvious problems at all.
There are no faults showing up and from what I can see, the Tech2 shows no issues.
There are no bubbles in the radiator when the engine is running.
My thoughts are either injector sleeve seals (replaced about 6 months ago) or water getting in to the turbo? (Turbo replaced about 1 year ago with Chinese type)
Any suggestions before I get the tools out?
