Is anyone else seeing a puff of blue smoke at start up?
It's to warm here for this to be from a cold air start up? Does anyone have any idea why this is happening, and how worried should I be at this point, (worry is my middle name ). Car only has about 1200 miles on it. I did not notice this smoke when there were only say 50,100, or 200 miles on it. Only noticed in the last couple hundred miles are so. So I dont know if this can be written off as part of the normal break in process .

Thanks for the help,
Tony

Thanks for the link. I did a search but did not see this.

 

They've picked a POPE !

 

 

Black is usually car running too rich, white is when antifreeze is in the stream/cylinder head leaking etc. And Blue I believe is when there is oil present in cylinder, etc. Good luck

 

this is a common thing on mod motors.don't sweat it it will go away.

 

Blue smoke is oil. Could just be excess on the cylinder walls. Might not be anything really wrong but I would monitor the oil usage. If it too much take it to the dealer.

Thanks I needed a laugh

 

good one so I need to take it to the vatican, not the dealer?

 

Oh good, now I can go on with my life!
