White smoke is coolant.
Blue smoke is oil. Black smoke is fuel. White and Blue smoke look similar. Have you had a chance to smell the smoke. Coolant will have a sweet smell, oil will smell like.... burned oil. |

have you tested it to make sure? it might be a very minor leak under high load. does the smoke stick around or go away pretty fast like when you start a car in the cold? |

Very unlikely to be a tune related problem unless it was black fuel smoke
Smoke is most likely oil, but possibly coolant Coul be turbo seals Catch can routing issue PCV vavle or check valve issue Rings valve guides worn broken Overfilled oil Blocked or restricted turbo oil return Check turbo intake for oil Overoiled air filter Probably a few others It only takes a small amount of oil to see smoke might take a fair bit of driving before you see levels drop. |
