I have noticed the same if I leave it to smoke then turn off with out giving it a blast down the road the nxt morn it will smoke for a road or 2! Still not checked if it’s running pressure as not really got it up to a good temp only popped shop n back but hoping to get a drive outta her tonight then il pop the filter cap see if there’s any pressure build upIs it WHITE Smoke...and does your oil level go up.....then leaking injector.....if blue I still say crank pressure preventing oil feed into turbo from returning to sump.....its forced slowly through the (Priston ring type seal, so has a gap) on the rear...drips into the housing...then when there is enough built up it smokes....but then when you drive, 1, less crank pressure as turbo vacume via PCV then clears until idles again 2, theres so little you can't see it anyway. Also I found once it smokes.....turn it off and leave it 3 days later...still smokes from start because you did not drive it and clear it...thus not injectors....but again its just theories....Darrendazza....our symptoms as similar bar the time....mine takes a lot longer, at least 20mins if not 30hr.
You still not answered my question of blowby...when your engine is at 90 (or normal operating temp) and you loosen the oil filler cap, is there pressure like opening a bottle of fizzy drink??
Once I've complete my catch can to satisfaction....I'm going to try the waiting thing again to check for smoke.....
