blue smoke

[Xlude]

I need some input. I own a 2012 speed3. I bought it new last year. It has 10, 000 miles now and only mods are Sure intake and Corksport OCC. To day and once a couple of weeks ago CT had a temps of below 25 degrees. I started the car and let it warm up a little bit and the I drove off. Once I did a big cloud of blue exhaust smoke came pouring out. It just kept coming out for about 6miles where I meant my destination. By then the coolant temp got up to 160. When I got out of the car there was slight sour smell from the back end.

When I came back to the car 10 minutes later to go home I left again the the blue smoke kept coming out again. Not as much was coming out as the cars coolant temp got up to 180-190. Now like I said this has happened before when it was 25 degrees and 2day when it was 17 out. After the day that it was below 25, I hadn't had any problems and no blue smoke until 2day. I was thinking blown turbo but it doesn't do it every day. Only when it is extremely cold out. Above 30 and the car is fine.

Also I do hear a gurgling sound from the Sure intake. I can't tell if the sound is coming from the OCC because it is connected to it or from the turbo inlet.

I just wanted to know some opinions or if anyone has experienced this issue. I don't see any problems with boost or with fuel pressure. I monitor them both with a gauge that I have in the car.

It happeded again today. So much blue smoke that it was blinding people behind me. It stops onec the car was warmed up to max for about 5 minutes. Then it went away. Also when I WOT I got a cel for P0123 code. I believe to too lean if I am correct. It also below 20degrees.

You are pouring out blue smoke and you think it is a smart idea to go WOT???

Sounds like your turbo seals shit the bed. Please, for the sake of your engine, never got WOT when you suspect a problem....


Stock out and go to the dealer.

Rub your muffler and see if a genie appears. That's my best guess.

But no you are burning oil. Stock out and use your warranty.
