  1. It's really not just condensation when cold. This was after it had warmed up! so not sure, has used no coolant an no funny colours in header tank, so still none the wiser. I drove it to work 13 miles there and back today, quite steadily as I don't wanna blow anything up and nothing today so seems a random thing maybe?? Sure turbo isn't on the way out? What's symptoms of that? --- I am here: http://maps.google.com/maps?ll=51.750273,-0.966659
  2. as said it doesnt smoke constantly, just seems to be under heavy load, ie 4th or 5th doing about 3k ish......... but smokes lots when cold til it warms up, seems strange! its only done it today, so havent noticed any coolant loss and did check for mayo. guess i had better do the proper HG test but i dunno. could it be something simple ie water or oil dripping on something? what are the general codes for colour of smoke again? black = oil white = water blue= ??
  3. hi all..... some advice needed. have an 04 oc vrs with 64k on the clock. had it mapped in dec and something went wrong today. under low load driving its fine, but when under heavy load, ie 4th, 5th gear at say 3k it puffs out white smoke after lift off revs.... is this turbo gone pop? boost leak from pancake? (was advisory after remap) water? oil leak on exhaust? cheers in advance
  4. if i need a new turbo..... which one is it? a ko3s or a ko4? sorry as you can see im no expert!
