Random White Smoke??
Heys guys, just wondering if someone can help me.
so last night driving my car from my house in morley to burswood. i arrive at burswood sitting in crawling traffic (bieber fkn concert) and i look in my rear vision mirror and white smoke is just pouring out of my exhaust. its not condensation because i could smell it and there was way to much smoke. cars behind me were freaking out. i couldnt hardly see the car behind me. i pulled off into a side street and turned it off. then drove home and stopped at various traffic lights on the way and not one puff of smoke. (Weird!) It was completley random. it blows a shit load of smoke for about 2 minutes then goes away. its done it about 3 times in the last 4 months. so not very often. the car is comming on boost like normal and is running fine (smooth). car has no serious mods. ive always been led to believe that white smoke is a bung turbo? drove the car today and no smoke anywhere? Ive asked my 2 mechanics both wernt too sure what it could be? if anyone has experienced similiar problems or knows what is going on that would be great Thanks Aj

Negative.
Were you giving it a bit of a squirt prior to getting stuck in traffic? Hopefully it's just a bit of blow by and while you were stuck still in the traffic the oil has dripped down through the cooler into the TB and burnt = lots of smoke. Would be a cheapish way of eliminating that as a problem rather than ripping your turbo out.
