    FR TDI fumes on tick over?

    Hi guys, I'm having some smoke trouble but it's coming from my engine rather than out the exhaust. It appears to be smoking near the turbo, the same area where JHunter_83 shows in the picture posted. Any ideas what this could be? Thanks!

    Fuel leak?

    Not done the soapy spray yet but the smoke comes from directly under the engine cover if that helps! Just had a quick look under the bonnet when I got to work.
