badboyV6 4 Posted January 7, 2005 Report Share Posted January 7, 2005 If its blue - more than likely valve stem oil seals, or valve guides. not likely but piston rings are possible (unlikely unless constant blue smoke) I got quoted around 200 quid + plus parts to replace the seals. White smoke isnt good news Link to post Share on other sites
Geastb 0 Posted January 7, 2005 Report Share Posted January 7, 2005 I sometimes get a (large) puff of smoke when pulling away from junctions - I was told that cylinders 1 and 6 can wear causing oil to be sucked past the rings - I'm hoping mine is just stem seals but its worth noting that it could be the rings!
