Morgzz92 Posted July 18, 2016 Share Posted July 18, 2016 Hi guys. I'm starting to get a little worried & paranoid now, so thought I'd see if anyone could rest my mind.. I gave my WRX an oil change last week. And oil filter & air filter. I put Millers CFS 10w40 fully synthetic racing eng oil in, which is expensive and supposed to be very good. I have noticed now that once the engine has first warmed up, if I'm sitting at traffic lights etc on idle, I can suddenly see lots of smoke. I realised last week that its my car. It's not blue. It's white / grey. Smells strong (racing smell). It really fires out for a while. But it does it a few times, after 20 minutes driving or so, it won't do it anymore. It also doesn't do it when, only was on idle. :/ any ideas? Thanks guys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tidgy Posted July 18, 2016 Share Posted July 18, 2016 If it clears when it warms up then i wouldn't worry to much. Just keep an eye on your fluid levels and if there ok then your fine 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morgzz92 Posted July 18, 2016 Author Share Posted July 18, 2016 OK cheers mate. I think it might be turbo on its way out though. It smells like burning oil, thinking turbo bearing / seal going. Letting oil through exhaust. it seems hesitant sometimes (turbo) boost. I might get it looked at. :-) thanks again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
