Where is the white smoke comming from? Is it comming from under the hood or out the exhaust? White smoke means that you're burning coolant.

Re: got white smoke,need help

Re: got white smoke,need help

i thought white smoke could mean that you could be burning oil. i would check the turbo to see if it is leaking oil.

Are you sure that chunk of your turbine (that you mentioned in your other thread) didn't go into the turbo and F it up?
