White smoke from exhaust indicates water/ antifreeze is getting into your cylinders. could be head gasket. Or intake manifold gasket.

SOURCE: 2001 Volvo s40 oil leaking in turbo, smokes white

Water in combustion chamber makes white smoke--suspect that the head gasket is leaking water into the chamber. If oil leaking around turbo, it may have a bad bearing and bad oil seal. Check waste gate valve and control.

I have a 1993 TD27 Nissan Atlas / Cabstar. How to stop the black smoke?

TD as in Turbo Diesel? They all tend from smoke a bit under acceleration.

White smoke is steam
Blue smoke is oil
Black smoke is rich mixture (in a gas / petrol vehicle)

2014 Nissan Cabstar. The ECU management error light is on Nissan Cabstar?

Have you checked for voltage to each of the glow plugs? if they aren't getting power they won't do their job properly. What colour is the smoke? Diesels do smoke when cold but the colour can give clues as to any hidden issues. White or dark Black smoke is a fuel issue. Often the fuel/air mixture is wrong creating this smoke colour. Blue Smoke is caused by burning oil so it could be a head gasket or worn piston rings depending on the miles on the engine.

I'm affraid it's the turbo that is faulty, and it's not a cheap job. the turbo has a oil pipe going to the turbo to lubricate the turbo bearing . When the bearing wears out the oil enters the engine and burns causing to smoke. Good luck

Car smoke white when idle and nothing when driving

Engine also smokes when car driving if turbocharger still faulty. Did you change the engine timing belt (the timing belt kit) meantime? What about engine oil consumption? When engine glow plugs (one or more) burnt then engine exhausts white smoke at idling. Also white smoke at engine idling when water is still present in diesel fuel.

Have Mazda bravo B2600 4WD ,has white smoke & oil from exhaust. Running rough as if on 3 cylinder

You dont say weather its a petrol or diesel engine as there a slight differance in the answer and if a turbo on a diesel thats even more of a differance, but taking it a petrol .
Well to start with the white smoke Isent smoke its water and after going through the engine it turns into Steam and thats what you see..
Running on 3 clyinders is caused through 1 cylinder isent working as a engine should and has a bad valve or a broken piston ring or more and even a cracked head and gasket letting the water through,,,also the broken ring works like a oil pump as if not firing given you power then it works like a oil pump and pumps it into the cylinder that dosent work only pumping oil into the hot exhaust system while running.CAUSING SMOKE
And if a turbo then could be the turbo bearings worn and pushing oil into the engine and still doing the same as before.
Let me know how you get on. RON
