Hello Members,
Hoping someone can help advise me to this problem, I am getting a lot of white smoke coming out of my exhaust and back of engine bay where Turbo is located.
Only once the car is up to operating temp and under load does the smoke appear, I still have boost though and car is not running rough or misfiring and has a good idle. Did a vagcom scan and only had code 17963 'charge pressure maximum limit exceeded' which I cleared and has not returned, although I am not using the car as much due to these problems.
Did the n245 bypass and changed a lot of hoses to silicone because I thought maybe the white smoke was excess oil residue being burnt off, the only hose I haven't changed is the Y shaped hose connecting inlet to Hockey Puck to TIP. The hose is all weak and soft and with many kinks but would this cause so much smoke???? am just waiting for a catchcan to do pcv delete. Do I block off the connection to the TIP?
Some sort of liquid also runs out of the exhaust, when under load, it is not thick as oil would be, and has a clear and water like consistency. Could it be Coolant?? although I have been told it should have a sweet smell if it is coolant being burnt off.
I seem to be using a lot of oil, but no coolant so am hoping its not the head gasket.
Would a Cracked head gasket give off smoke from out of engine bay??? or only out of exhaust??
I just want to make sure I allocate the exact problem.
Anyone help please.
