Hi all don't use car much and its been stood for 2 weeks without being ran anyway been out to wash it and start it up and its started puffing blue/white smoke out. However once engine warmed up it stopped and no smoke. Left car overnight went out started it up tonight again and once again smoking when cold but stops when warm? Any ideas?

id take it for a spin and see if it smokes at different times..i.e hard acceleration,overrun etc.. it will either be valve stem seals,turbo,rings or a breather..also what grade oil do you use ?

[Dave5300]

same as mine mate, oil seal in the turbo is gone, when you start it will it take about ten seconds before it starts to smoke?

Does yours stop smoking when engine is warm though? Mine smokes immediately on start up but stops when engine is warm and does not smoke when revved etc once it is warm.

mine starts smokeing about 8-10 seconds after starting, goes away after about a minute or so, and dosent smoke when warm

Stem seals have gone hard, oil goes down onto the valve after sitting and burns it on start up. Easy fix you don't have to take the head off.

Stem seals mate ,, the tool to do them aint dear but if your buying new ones get "" top hat "" ones much better than original ones and the tool lets u do them without taking off the head
