Hi everyone,
Over the last couple of weeks, I've noticed my engine is blowing a bit of smoke through the exhaust at the lights when it's idling. At first I thought it was just due to the cold weather, but last night when I was going through a drive thru on a mild night, I noticed there was quite a bit of smoke behind me. Smoke seems to be white coloured, not blue or anything like that. Apart from that, car seems to run fine - smooth idle, same power it's always had. Any idea what this might be?
The idea that's been thrown around so far is turbo. If it's a turbo, I'm lead to believe Kinugawa replacement TD04-HLA, but my mechanic lead me to believe he's had some grief with these and had a quite a few units fail (but he was just talking about Taiwanese turbos in general) - can anyone comment on the quality of the Kinugawa turbos?
