Have been having this issue and wanted to run it by this forum to see if anyone else has had it.
have the hilux with the 3.0 Litre turbo D4D engine, 1kd-ftv.
White/Grey smoke on start regardless of car temp...worse in morning but if sitting there for half an hour will also smoke.
Mechanic pulled off intercooler, oil all through the turbo etc, turbo needed bearings, seals done. So did that. Still smoke...argh.
Had a closer look, number one injector buggared. Replaced all injectors. Got car back yesterday yet still smoking!
When i start it i notice that the times it smokes it has a little shudder after ignition like it's trying to 'catch up'. If it doesn't do that it doesn't smoke.
