Thanks Bill-I dont think so because the white smoke is in the exhaust and coming from what appears to be under the engine-not minor smoke as if extra just burning off the block. But there was an exhaust leak prior so it may just be coming through leak. The only prior problems perhaps related could be the seal at the manifold and block and also the turbo seal. However, the turbo glows red hot and I'm not sure why especially if the car has oil and coolant-no loss or leakage. If it was overfilled would it smoke like that? The dipstick reads 1/2 way between min and max so I think its fine but perhaps it was "too" topped off. Also-the vacuum hoses were making crazy noises the day before-it really fluctuated wildly between a hoover and an F14 gearing for takeoff. I can't tell if the turbo doesnt work because I'm afraid to drive the car-its a LOT of smoke and coming into the cabin, under the car, etc. Would cause a major spectacle. Any ideas or experience is appreciated-many many thanks-John
