2007 D40 Auto - 3" exhaust, new turbo, egr blocked. 170,000km
I have had a few instances of large amounts of white smoke occuring lately.
Mechaninc had the vehicle for a bout a week and is sure there is fuel getting into the oil. The oil is then thinned out and leaches through seals in the turbo and is then creates the white smoke. He changed the oil and it stopped doing it. He believes the thinned out oil was the likely cause for the turbo shaft overheating and wearing out. it was a lovely burnt blue colour when he pulled out the old turbo.
He said it needs new injectors, or the other option is to regularly change the oil. It has been 1000 km since the oil change and now it has started smoking again. The oil level on the dipstick says over full, indicating the volume of oil has increased due to the fuel in it.
Do the injectors seem the likely culprit? or is there any other way for fuel to enter the oil. Just dont want to blow $3000 to $4000 on injectors if its not the problem????
