Hi all,
I'm new here so apologise if is an over used thread just after help as I'm not great with the old internet only my spanners.
I have a S3 8L which has developed white smoke. It only does it on idle when warm but when it's warm it's smells and is like mist behind the car when driven.
I have checked a few things, the oil breather pipe and tip were split so changed these and also noticed rocker cover is leaking.
The car has been sat three months before I got it as it failed it's mot on fast idle 2 emissions.
Anyway just after some help as to whether it's going be serious or the above issues would cause the problem?
I'm thinking possibly turbo seal or valve stem seals.
If anyone has similar issue or could help please let me know
Many thanks
