I know it's an obvious one, but are you losing coolant?

I haven't checked the coolant I will look in the morning, hope to get it sorted for good this time as it's terrible do you think it may be getting into my fuel?

If coolant leaks into the combustion chamber, it would burn with a white smoke. As the turbo has already been done, I'd be looking at a coolant leak next.

Coolant level is fine can't spot any leaks the bonnet liner is soaking wet so I believe the bit on top is allowing water through I will get that sorted but noting seems to be getting under the engine cover.

get rid danny........... then buy mine
I think it is going the journey mate Evans halshaw offered me 4800 for it today if I can get an exhaust on it so I'm now hunting a standard fr 1 again as scrap man just collected mine yesterday.
I won't be buying another unfortunately I have a Mercedes c class also so I now have no need for 2 cars.

Ba k to the subject I have put the standard exhaust back on and when the car starts to warm up I still get the smoke from the exhaust, no coolant loss oil still the same inje ctors ha e been tested and are good it also does it on tick over once the engine is warm and idle.

Any ideas what to be looking at next? I think it may be over fueling and not burning it off but have no idea what I do now?

Here's a little update picking the car back up from Evans halshaw as they said they can see the smoke clearly but can't find what is causing it #wallbash so I now have it boomed back in at my local vag specialist next Wednesday until then it will smoke away.

These cars will smoke from the oil filler cap.. But that would not explain the other smoke.
am still thinking its condensation even when warm. pull the exhaust right off and see if it still does it.
You say it has a diesel smell once it starts. does that smell stay or fade off.
a good video would help. have you seen the results of the injector leak test

I haven't seen the result but was told there wasn't a problem once done on injectors I have had the exhaust off still smokes the and the smell is there and stays once the smoke starts. Thanks

Checked my oil level again today and it would seem I have a leak getting into there as last week the level was ok inbetween the lines today it's past the end altogether.

Does it look like coolants getting in? Or does the oil smell like diesel?

When you say the DPF has been done... you mean cleaned or removed? Failed regenerations would cause diesel to end up in the oil, overfilling it. I'd also be careful because if the oil level gets too high, it'll be dragged into the combustion chamber.
