So I started my FRS this afternoon after about 17 hours of letting it sit overnight. It puffed out a plume of blue smoke. First thing I thought of were either piston rings or valve seats. It only has 60k on her and I am not seeing this issue with any other owners. The oil has about 2800 on it and I strictly change it every 3k with full synthetic Mobil 1 0w-20, I also did drive the car extensively and spiritedly yesterday. This is the second time I've noticed this, and the last time was about two months ago with a very small amount of smoke. My friend was also chasing me over the weekend and stated he saw a puff of black/blue smoke when I downshifted or accelerated quickly, and I also saw a cloud of something in my rearview while accelerating near 5k. Could my CAI be causing issues with the PCV system? Maybe its sucking oil through the throttle body. Its still under powertrain but I wanted to ask you guys before i take it to the dealership.
