Well its been a while but here i am, OK to start off the bat is the following codes 12, 34, 51 not only that but grey smoke as well i will post the vid soon.

All started when my two front inter-cooler piping got bent and the other side with a hole in it, I went to start up the car to park it turned it over and white smoke blew out for 3 mins then stopped, i was thinking that might be from the morning start but when I started it again to move it from my wife's car (Mid day) it did the same thing...


So i ordered some pipes to fix my two front inter-cooler piping, put them on and took the car for a test drive to see how she runs Pulled hard but still a boost leak (Car jerking) CEL came on and gave me the codes then came back and let the car sit but rev'ed it and grey smoke http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l7-T663tamU&feature=youtu.be that's the vid.

White smoke ususally means coolant/water, black blue or gray smoke usually means oil or fuel. If your car runs rich in boost it will puff black smoke. Take the car for a test drive and see when it smokes, hard acceleration, deceleration and see what color it is. You could have valve issues, you could be experiencing really bad blow-by, or your turbo seals could be going out.
