    3.0TDI white smoke on idle only.. possible EGR issue? advice please

    Thanks for the input both of you:thumbsup: I have been shopping injectors and it would appear that BOSCH updates them regularly- the ones on the car are probably there from new- which I'm assuming are part numer 059 130 277 AB or BA (i will check tonight and confirm). Now I see the later...

    3.0TDI white smoke on idle only.. possible EGR issue? advice please

    Like I say, prior to DPF. 2006. Had it been DPF I'm certain she would be in limp! Performance is excellent so definitely not that. The only error codes are for Glow Plugs- which I have read do not cause the smoke. The coldest it gets here is +12 degrees C:lmfao:
