As title suggests my tdi has a smoking problem. I've been searching the net for a few weeks now but still confused to what it could be.
It's at it's worst when cold, when it's first turned on usually a puff of blueish/grey smoke, when accelerating (still cold) a cloud of this blue/grey smoke can be seen in the mirror it's not massive but enough for me to be concerned and also kind of embarrassing.
When it's up to temperature when given a bootful puff of smoke still can be seen sometimes.
I know these cars use oil i've had to top mine up a few times maybe 2-3litres over the past 10 months (this normal?)
I've had the egr and inlet off and cleaned then the egr blanked off and mapped out, car is also mapped. It's a 140 BRE
