Few people have said it could be because it still thinks a dpf so ain't running quite right..it's got to be done anyway so I'll let you know how it goes | |

Why does it need to be mapped? Surely it should be mapped when it's rubbing it's best? | |

Ye I'm thinking turbo issue myself but it's got to be mapped anyway so I'll see what it's like after that | |

As above Blue smoke = Engine oil so probably turbo seals or heavy breathing (worth changing the crank case filter if its not been done). | |

Not really worried about "mot time" the issue was bit of blue smoke..ain't noticed any extra black soot but then it ain't been mapped yet so might be different after..but still | |

If there's weld marks you will still have a problem. | |

Just the insides taken out | |

have you had the dpf totally removed or just the insides taken out? as you will have problems come MOT time if its not there at all. | |

That's what I originally thought turbo on its way out...see if it continues once it's mapped | |

There's a difference between blue smoke and the black smoke most generic derv maps produce. | |

Ahh ok then..feels a lot better already with just the dpf took out so looking forward to it being mapped | |

Yeah my 330 smokes like crazy with no dpf, don't worry about it | |

Any diesel with no DPF will smoke on boost. Have it mapped and it'll probably be even worse. | |

I've got a bmw 118d dpf light came on few weeks back so decided to have it removed and mapped...had the dpf removed today and it's being mapped next week but I've noticed on boost little cloud of blue smoke..id say it's worse when it just comes onto boost then you let off..me mate (mechanic) who removed it said get it mapped first because it could be its because it's still running a map with dpf in so could be something to do with that failing that turbo could be on its way hence why dpf got blocked..anyone shed any light on this? |
