when is not moving throw smoke but when it go more than 25mph the smoke disappears but if i stop it comes back!!!
i just got this car with 137.********miles the engine is running perfect!! 5 speed transmission good!! spark plug perfect!! but!... when i turn it on throws a lot of white smoke!! I went to a mecanic this guy put one sensor from the smoke check computer on the coolan tank to make the computer smell the coolan to see if has any gas, fuel on it.. if is gas on it he told me that can be the head gasket need to be change. but the computer didnt detects any gas on it.. so he said the engine, head gasket are ok! i took the spark plug out to check if it was oil on the point.. they are ok! no oil on spark plug. engine temp is on 190' degrees which is ok the RPM on 900 which is ok is working great. i know someone that is a mecanic he told me that is the turbocharger that is leaking oil and burning the oil with the emissions. im about to get a new turbo charger exactly this one: K03 Turbo Charger VW 98 99 00 01 02 03 Passat GLS 1.8T for 299.99new. is this turbocharger good?
i read about people doing the seafoam thing to their cars and getting lot of white smoke like mine.
should i get the turbo? or it can be that the previous owner did the freaking sea foam thing?
what another reason can cause this white smoke?
please help!!!!
