Agree with you !Open discussion is to throw out ideas and reasonable arguments.Open discussion should not include personal insults...something you just done!
So you obviously you need a lesson in open discussion!In some Forums,you would be warned against!

With regards to a lesson in reading comprehension,you dont need to tell me because I can see you lacking in this field as well!Why?Because if you read the whole thread properly you should have easily understood that OIL WATER SEPARATOR and OIL BREATHER FILTER have the same function and the OP had already replaced that which resolved the crankcase pressure problem.

Once or twice,I also posted am untimely message only to be told correctly, that I should have read the thread properly,never called anyone here an ass!
If you cant argue reasonably in open discussion...then dont spoil an otherwise enjoyable and informative thread .
So if you dont mind,I will ignore any further off topic remarks you will make!

Cheers Powers1,

I reckon the car was on for around 15mins max, and driving only 5mins. The car wasnt fully warm for sure.

Suprisingly there are no DTC warnings on the dash. I will try and access the pipe this weekend but at the point now which I'm going to book it in at the dealers. Its very strange that none of the warning lights have come on.

What was the oil level like?
Normally,DTCs wont be registered if its excessive oil in your intake,which why I think its turbo related and you mileage justifies this.
DTCs may eventually register after some time , because the excessive oil will trigger off turbo boost sensor or other sensors on intake or turbo pipes.

If you could drive to Stroud,Glos.,I could get my coleague Turner race developments south west UK car tuning company to help you...

Guys, excellent news....I took the vehicle for a long run, decieded to brave it this time with the smoke. It was very late at night so the roads where quiet. As the engine warmed up the smoke got worse, but then started disappearing.....

The smoke has now gone after a 15mile run....must have been the excess oil still in the intake.

Everyone thanks for your help!!! Now I'm back on the road!!
