White smoke on start up 200 series

[Mark FI]

Hi all, my 08 200 series has started to blow blue/white smoke on cold start up. Lasts about 5 minutes at idol then disappears. Engine is stock standard other than exhaust. 200000ks on clock and has not missed a service. No loss of power. I'm thinking compression should be fine. Any ideas??

Cheers

Hi Mark

I assume you have a diesel.  I am sorry to suggest, you should be getting the injectors checked - or at least ask toyota to do the testing and see what the tolerances come back with....,

Thanks Woodduck this had entered my mind and was hoping for a simpler/cheaper explanation. I live on Flinders Island and will have to wait until the Toyota guys next visit as I don't think the mechanic here has the equipment required to do that.

ask them to bring their magic black box (Toyota laptop), as they'll need that to interrogate the ECU

 

Good luck
