[QUOTE="Tazza, post: 119328, member: 82"] White smoke, especially at startup is caused from low compression, be it a bent con rod or just normal cylinder wear. The fuel isn't being ignited from the compression. One way to check if this could be the cause, is to start the motor and one by one, loosen an injector line, this will take out that cylinder as no fuel will be injected. See what one makes the smoke stop. If the smoke was blue it could be a head gasket or even a failing turbo allowing engine oil into the intake. [/QUOTE]
