its as soon as you start it it smoke it looks like a cloud after a few mins of idle it clears then if you rev it just a wee puff of smoke nothin really. a thot a fuked turbo it be grey or black and a smell of burnt oil

Everyone says it should be blueish grey, but mine was more white. (black is normally fuel related) I think it was a mixture of high blowby pressurising the crankcase and forcing the oil past the turbo seal or something like that. It didn't smell of oil from what I can remember (this was 15years ago now) Mine didn't do it on start up though.
Could it be the valve stem seals/valve guides leaking?
