Issues with my Speed 3?

[Suhrob]

Good Evening Everyone!

I am a proud owner of a 2012 MS3 with 83k miles as of a month ago! However, after owning it for a few weeks (loving every moment, even with the problems) it started smoking! I have spent the last 3 days trying to read EVERY post on this forum, and donated to get a VIP as I do not want to ask for help without any contribution to this site!

Here are a couple things I have noticed about the car smoking (WHITE). 1, it smokes during heavy idle and when BAT is above 153 degrees. No smoke during WOT. From the reading I have done on this forum, it sounds like it might be the turbo BUUUUTTT I have throwing codes for my EGR? There are 4 codes, they are as follows: P0401, P0403, P0421 and P2299.

I bought this car from a dealer and am unsure of all of the upgrades, as I am new to this platform and cars in general! But looks like upgrades are, AP, CAI, TMIC, JBR shifter, Coilovers. Possible HPFP? sounds like I won't know unless I open it up? Do you think my smoking is for sure a Turbo, or possible PCV or EGR issues?

you need to open the fuel pump to see if it has aftermarket internals. check youtube for install videos on how to open it

Good luck with the car!
