Hi I have a vaxhall astra 1.7cdti ecoflex estate life mk5 2010 model. Giving blue smoke out of exhaust when driving mainly. It’s done 160k miles Not sure what can it be?? Valve seals? Head gasket??no signs of any leaks checked this. Turbo? Dpf filter ?? Any help would be much appreciated
@kingimy123 160K and blue smoke would lead me to believe you are having issues with the Turbo. The very first thing you want to do is a compression test and a leak down test. That way you at least get an idea about the condition of your rings etc. , as well as your valves. It could rule out your valves, seals, rings etc. Let us know what you find out.
