passat 1996 lots off smoke when started

[jill300268]

Green flag recovery thinks that the turbo is releasing oil through the exhaust, pass i am not technical mined it as its lots of smoke coming out of the back whitish in colour and lots of black splutter marks over pavement by the tail pipe the of exhaust and there is a clicking noise/sound/ of engaging coming from around turbo charger ,the car for some reason when on low idle clears its self when you put foot back on accelerator and then regains full power but when foot is taking off the accelerator its starts smoking bad and running rough again he said something a about seals in the turbo .ps can a faulty turbo cause these problems . also the car will not start off key very good .done other components checks glow plugs are fine fuel is getting though ok and the car as only done 95000 miles so it still low millage for a car of this age .


any help thanks

Green Flag is correct about the turbo.

I would stop starting it (if you are!) If the oil is making it's way into the engine as well as the exhaust, You could well have a runaway situation. The engine bassically revs itself to death.

Best get a turbo fitted asap.

hi do you know what a solonid N75 is ,when the car is in idle for some reason it clears its self as if nothing it wrong with the car and i got normal accelerator.and then when you put your foot on the accelerator why is it running ok as if the car has no problem and when you take your foot off the accelerator it starts smoking really bad .there is no oil coming out of the exhaust just lots off smoke as if its not burning the fuel .its like a petrol car with oil seals gone in the cam and its smokes really bad .there was no underline problem with the car before .apart from lacking power on
acceleration like a bad flat spot .

do you think this guy is right as a new turbo don't come cheap.

thanks for the reply .

The n75 is the boost controller and has no reason to make your car kick out whiteish smoke!

You said it was leaving black marks on the path or something.

It sounds to me when you rev the car it is sucking oil direct into the engine.

Is the smoke whiteish blue and lingers?

hi its belching whiteish smoke

hi its belching whitish smoke but it do sort of clear when on idle .the car is very hard to start or turn over . because the car have been standing for a few days and we have been trying to start it and took some time to get it to go because when the guy was putting easy start in the pipe for sometime the accelerator was not responding till the burned fuel was burned off its very had to explain .the turbo is making a very strange clicking noise but you only here this noise twice and then the car runs fine and till you take your foot of the accelerator again
thanks jill

I may have misinterpreted the black patch on the path, It could well be soot and you may be right about the N75. ( The clicking could be the n75 having a fit)

Is the black bit on the path oily or dry?

i its dry depoits see picture its raining here so the floor look wet

if the n75 is at fault could this cause the car not to run normal and cause accelerator and loss of power problems and till this failed all together

That is indeed soot. You are more mechanically minded than you think.

If the valve is clicking then that is the culprit.

Green flag need shooting.

yes it is over fueling! change the n75 and all will be well.

Yes of course (white smoke and soot is overfueling)

When the n75 is broken you will not get any boost. (at all)
