Im not sure what this could be, but my car is smoking on idle at full temp, this is what its like even on a full run and i have been driving it for a few hours, any ideas? I hope its just something like PCV valves. And yes i know, it needs to be washed, but when the car lives on a farmyard most of the time, these things are going to happen.

 

Sorry about quality, this was taken quite late at night

Wont be turbo seals mate, it would be blue, this is pure white. It does do it all the time, when i stop i see smoke from behind, so im thinking pcv valves?

 

looks like condensation to me. im guessing you have decats??

 

Nope i don't have decats.

I thought turbos before you fixed the vid, pcv valves will be blue ish as well,

 

Just looks like normal codensation pure white would be nothing to worry about. there is next to nothing there. mine is nuts when its cold as is the supra and the FTO lol!!

Here you go. did this vid last year. on a cold day and i have decats on a 3" abflug system

She only has 60K on the clock and FSH, i really doubt it could be that mate!

link dont work:no:

I agree with Car.Mad - looks normal to me! If you think that's bad you want to see my clio daily drive - during this cold weather that can almost disappear in its own condensation especially when started and left to idle while I de-ice the windows.

That wasnt start up lol!!!!!:lol::lol:

 

THe reason why ours will do it more than others is because the emmision are sky high and the have a big 3l v6. Like i said the supra is also the same on a stock exhaust with the cats still on.

 

Fto is a bit less but thats a straight though.

 

There is nothing wrong with that. i bet your mates have 2liters lol!!! no point in compairing

 

There is nothing to worry about:wink:
