View 11 Replies4Runner/GX470 :: 1994 - White Puff Of Smoke At The Tail Pipe Every Time On Start
My 1994 4x4 4Runner throws out a white puff of smoke at the tail pipe everytime I start it and sometimes when I'm driving. Just recently, it has no acceleration power what so ever and it can hardly go up a hill.
Is my engine total? Also, I'm leaking alot of steering fluid but, no puddles anywhere.
Is there a connection between the two or is it just time to buy a new car?
Ford F-150 - 1997-2003 :: Blue Smoke From Tail Pipe
After tooling around town and a complete warm up cycle for the engine I encountered a problem. The situation is this.... Had to go around a slow poke....waited until traffic had cleared and nailed it. My truck belched out a boat-load of blue smoke from the tail pipe. Could not duplicate this on the return trip to the stealer (Dealer). Needles to say, I am worried about the health of the engine....(no codes popped, or anything else as I had a code reader hooked up) My truck did the blue cloud again with a rev up in park after a cool down but wouldn't do it again, but there was a strong smell of unburned fuel at the tail pipe.
4.6L, 2WD, Sport Package....
Camry :: 07 Puff Of Blue Smoke Smoking At Start Up?
I have a 07 camry 4 cylinder with about 80k miles on it. Now on cold starts i started to notice that it will have a puff of blue smoke out the exhaust then it will go away right away and when i drive it there is no smoke and the car drives fine.
I did some research and Im thinking that it is the valve seals. Now my question has tried to sea foam it and then run thicker oil to see it it will stop the smoking? or will i just have to replace the valve seals?
Ford 6.0L Power Stroke Diesel :: Rough Running Like Missing When Cold / Puffs Of Blue Smoke From Tail Pipe
My truck has been having this issue pretty much since I have had it, but it seems to be getting worse, or so I think.
When the truck is cold, it does not want to move very well. Like it's missing, and it does this until it gets warmer. Also, I have puffs of blue smoke come out the tailpipe when this occurs with it cold.
Injectors? Injector o-rings? Stiction?
FICM volts are good at 46.5v-48v when cranking.
Hyundai - Elantra :: 1997 - Emits Blue Smoke From Exhuast While Climbing Hills
1997 Hyundai Lantra LS 1.8 5-speed. I live in a really flat area, but we're surrounded by hills and mountains. Whenever I have to go into the mountains I start to get blue smoke from the exhaust after a few minutes of climbing. The longer or steeper the hill, the more smoke I get. Obviously I'm burning oil, but I'm not sure what would cause the problem only when the engine is being taxed.

My car just turned 20k miles. I haven't abused it and rarely tach it over 4k. I needed to cross a lane in heavy traffic so I put my foot into it, it tached up to maybe 6grand, dropped a gear or so and out the tail pipe comes a huge cloud of smoke. I mean huge. Looked like it burnt a quart of oil in a second. I had just changed the oil a few days before. Mobil full syn. I know the lvl was correct because i checked it the day after i changed it.
View 10 RepliesTiguan :: Smoke Coming From Tail Pipe At Start Up
I just noticed it this morning. I never really looked at the tailpipe at startup before. Is a little smoke the norm?It didn't look like "A Lot" but it was enough for me to take notice. No leaks under, No apparent loss of oil when checking dipstick(weekly), no performance issues, consistent MPG, 2011 with 47K. My first thought after reading through the forum was to to check the PCV.
View 12 RepliesLexus GX 2010+ :: Blue Smoke Coming Out Tailpipe Upon Start Up
I have noticed 3 times so far blue smoke coming out the tailpipe upon start up. I have not been able to reproduce the issue on demand but I have seen it myself 3 times and it concerns me a bit. It's a 2012 with 36k on it. I changed the oil at 1k, 5k, 10k, 20k & 30k. Last oil change was done by the dealer but every oil change was done with Lexus Filter and synthetic oil. I have not noticed a loss of oil by the dipstick either. I noticed the poof of smoke last week when I was outside at the carwash and one of the employees moved it. I also noticed it when I used remote start the other 2 times. It's not enough that I would be able to see it from inside the truck. I also have black carbon / soot build up in the bottom of my tailpipe but I think that's with all vehicles. I know if I bring it to Lexus they will say "Unable to duplicate issue" and send me on my way.

Nut are they bad for the motor? If so than why do semi's always puff large amounts of smoke? Why do people wire in switches to cut off their turbo, isnt that bad?!
View 6 RepliesElantra MD (2010-15) :: 2013 GLS Throwing Clouds Of Smoke Out Of Tail Pipe
While accelerating moderately into traffic one day the engine seemed to quit and the engine light came on, soon after the engine came back to life the engine light went off and clouds of smoke came pouring out of the tail pipe. Light blue not quite white though. Engine was running fine. After letting it cool down a couple hours I restarted and the same thing started. Called the dealership and they took me in the next morning. Mechanic says he has seen this before and it sounds like a bad ground somewhere. I am no rocket scientist but if there is that much smoke pouring out of the tailpipe I would tend to believe that something in the engine( head gasket/cracked head) would be a more reasonable assumption. Having said that, the dealer has had the car for 2 days now and they still have not told me what the problem is! Only 40 k on it, certified pre owned...

Yesterday my car ran fine. Today it started running rough when my wife drove it. When I started it to see what was going on it ran very rough. I gave it a little gas and black smoke came out of the tail pipe and now it will not start. I can hear the fuel pump running when I turn the car on. I have spare at least at the coil pack to the wires. The check engine light is on but I don't have a tool to read it and I can't start it to go get it read.

I was watching my wife drive off yesterday, and noticed a puff of blue smoke (oil) from the exhaust when she started moving.
This is a 2000 V6 passat. The car has a valve clatter when you first put a load on the engine that goes away quickly. I've read that this is likely the cam tensioners leaking down - is that right.

Toyota - Highlander :: 2002 - Puff Of Blue Smoke On Most Startups
150,000 No loss of power. Only very small loss of oil in 3000 miles. Could it be valve seals. At what point is this a fix it problem. Would like to run car as long as possible. Great car. I had valve seals replaced years ago in a Chevy 305. That was so bad that I needed a stand off plug to prevent fouling and skipping. Should I look to trade or will the fix not be too bad.

View 6 RepliesLexus RX 2010-15 :: Remote FOB Will Not Start 2012 RX350
I have a 2012 RX350 with about 25k miles. Remote FOB will not start the car. Strange problem that I cannot find anywhere. The batteries were replaced in both FOBs because they were showing 2.6v. Still will not start.
Pressing LOCK, LOCK, HOLD LOCK you can hear the click of the doors locking but the flashers do not flash. After holding lock for the 3 seconds the flashers will flash 4 times, then nothing. All other functions of the fob work correctly.
I was thinking about removing the car battery for awhile (kind or a reboot, maybe) before bringing to dealer (110 miles away).
Ford 7.3L Power Stroke (1999-2003) :: F250 Won't Start / White Smoke Coming Out Of Tail Pipe
I just came back from a 200 mile trip and parked my truck. Next day, got in the truck and turned the key.... it turned over and white smoke coming out the tail pipe. After doing some research(you tube),I ruled out cps sensor because it was showing low rpms on tach. Replaced glow plug relay and still have same issue.. what else to look at that I can do without getting it towed. Hunting season coming soon and I need the beast.
