no just checked - very dark
small leak but that has always been
Dartmoor - YES! Head gasket then?
Dartmoor - YES! Head gasket then?
Ok, update:
Took the landy to mechanic who had a look and gave me the following diagnostic:
Turbo gone and leaking oil into exhaust causing 80% of the smoke and the other 20% is from the head gasket. Therefore he wants to change the turbo and do the head gasket.
Does this sound right? I would have thought if the smoke was from the leaking turbo, once fixed there should be no smoke and therefore no need to strip the engine.
Leap of faith!
Will change turbo and fingers crossed, touch wood, salt over shoulder, pray that is all.
Will update once sorted
As promised:
It was the turbo. Took three times to find a working replacement (advise to get new rather than wasting time)
Thanks to all who contributed. Next rounds on me!
