X6m blowing smoke on boost

eDubz · 09-20-2020, 08:48 AM

I've noticed that my X5M is blowing a little puff of white smoke at cold start and also while under WOT (a friend followed me one day and told me). It's not thick, but wondering what it could be? I do smell a burning smell after driving the car. Not losing any oil though. I recently had my oil return lines replaced which stopped an oil leak. I did the CCV tuned about 5k miles ago. Any ideas?

Ya grab all four and since your in there, grab the oil return cover (#13) they connect to. It's not to expensive and will take only minutes to change when you have everything already out and they tend to start leaking around 80-100k

I just examined the 4 metal pipes online and I think they can easily be cleaned. I'll get the hose instead and clean the four pipes properly.
