Re: blue smoke on startup
Blue smoke will be oil burning - does it use any to speak of?

2003 HDi 2.2 6-speed Exec Estate (2012-19) (also a gem)

Re: blue smoke on startup
looks like it pours oil into the engine while it's stopped.. most likely worn out valve sheets

Re: blue smoke on startup
no guys it doesnt use oil,maybe its just wear and tear,not worth repairing really,ive spent hundreds over the last five years,thanks for replies,much appreciated.
Re: blue smoke on startup
i found that BG oil treatment is quite useful to stop this. A friend's 405 GLD was smoking and 'gulping' about a liter of oil per week!! poured a can in and we witnessed how the bluish smoke fading away and disappeared.
