2003 V70 t5 Blue smoke at idle???

Post by Barney_Barney »

Getting blue smoke though the exaust, but it only appears at idle after about 30 seconds. I had the EGR valve replaced a while ago when I had white smoke billowing! which resolved this.. any suggestions?

My guestimate is that you should switch to an oil for high mileage engines. This will gradually de-carbonize the engine.
