Stu9 Posted April 1, 2014 Share Posted April 1, 2014 An 04 tdci.. Engine's also very rattlely and smokey and was idling on 3 then after a few minutes went on 4 (I think), it's been sitting for 4ish months maybe longer, it's revs not to bad (still a lot of this smoke though) when I started to drive, when in first it hardly moved and my foot was dm near to the floor. I tried going into second, it pulled slightly better but not much It's got a (seemingly) genuine 90000 from a mot history check, the car is general's in very good shape, just this engine problem. I though either injectors/s, turbo or seals, egr....all 3 Seller wants 600 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sheriff Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 Blown turbo seals? Have you checked turbo for bearing play? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stoney871 Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 I'd say turbo too. Hellish expensive ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeebowhite Posted April 6, 2014 Share Posted April 6, 2014 If you havent bought it, walk away! Your going to spend a lot more time and money and stress diagnosing the issue I can guarantee you that much! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stef123 Posted April 6, 2014 Share Posted April 6, 2014 My money is on the injectors. The turbo won't cause it to run on 3 and if the smoke was because of the turbo it would more than likely be blue. As above, I would walk away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheriff Posted April 6, 2014 Share Posted April 6, 2014 If the oil is being vapourised and not burned the smoke will be white. The fact that it's running on three could easily be a piece of turbo has been ingested and ruined the engine. If it's oil that's being burned or fuel?
