Hi can anyone tell me what the different colours of smoke signify on a Ducato 2.5 TDi engine :-

I have light blue smoke coming from the exhaust all the time, does anybody know what this means ?

Blue smoke indicates that oil is being burned somewhere-either valve seals or piston rings are the usual culprit. My 2.5TDi gives out black smoke on startup for a couple of minutes then virtually no smoke at all.

Try putting some injector cleaner in the fuel tank before you take any drastic action.

Can also be a sign of the engine not getting hot enough, check the thermostat.

Hi.
As waleem.
Blue is generally Oil.
Black is generally over fuelling.
White is generally Steam/Water.
Pink is generally after to much weed !!!
