Cunningham off here passed me the other day and said he seen blue smoke coming out of exhaust???
I have never noticed on a run or revving car etc...
Have been told could be the turbo seals??
Also been told to let it tick over then pull away as thats when you may see it as when you are ticking over oil drips out and blue smoke envails when ypou pull away..
going to take it to my bro in law on next day off to check it out...
ANything else it could be?
and is turbo seals costly? what would be involved, just new seals?

people say they see blue smoke from mine but its just grey. most turbos throw out a bit of grey smoke on boost as it runs slightly rich.
