having troubles with the gte? dang, just saw u like last week and it was goodn
Hey guys my 4agte recently started blowing alot of wihte smoke on start even when warmed up turned off and then turned on, say if take it for a drive then stop turn it off for 2 mins and then start it up again bam more white smoke shit loads. Turbo boost fine , motor runs great but it poors out all this smoke after any initial stop and start . What could it be ? the motor has had a recent rebuild , the only thing i can think of is the turbo seals are gone as i have recently installed a boost controller for 10psi.
Cheers for the help

It was only stock boost 6-7psi since then ive put a boost controller on and its pumping 10psi which i think my turbo is having a bad day

Driving would be okay but when it was idling it would blow shit loads of white smoke aswell also after a rebuild.
I bought a new turbo put it in and it was fine after that.
ah k sounds like a new turbo for me, any one else got some reasonable explanation
blow by
could you please elaborate ? ive got a catch can and oil breather connected?
on vacuum it will pull blow by into the system causing the smoke, my vl used to do it, check ur cooler for oil as well
i had this on a CA18 once, i thouhgt it was the turbo, was actually a hair line crack in the oil feed to the turbo.
after it was warm i would stop turn it off, and when it wuld sit there oil would drip out, turn it back on when it was warm and SMOOOOKE
