Well, I recently put more lighting in my garage to help me see better and I realized that smoke is coming from the area where my turbos are. It isn't a lot of smoke, just slightly noticeable in the light, and it only smokes during idle. When you step on the gas, the smoke goes away, but when you let go, the smoke comes back. You can't really smell it either. Is this bad?

 

Have you done any work in that area?

What does the smoke smell like? Any idea what color?

Well, the previous owner had the turbos replace because they went bad but that's the only work I know of done in that area. It's really hard to smell but if you do smell it, it doesn't smell that bad. And it's white smoke.

 

it might be coolant from the lines that come off the turbo's

 

So it's a coolant related problem? Because I'm leaking coolant.

 

try smelling the smoke if it is a sweet smell then yeah, and also since you said you are leaking coolant then that's what it could be there are 2 coolant lines to the turbo one of them might have raptured...
