Generally on the TDi's, blue smoke is one of two things.

Turbo oil seals, or valve stem seals. Or so i believe anyway. Someone please correct me if I am wrong.

But yeh, kind of worrying.

Wasnt just me that noticed it either. A few of the lads mentioned it as you pulled in.

Would your car not have warmed up by then anyway, seeing as you had just arrived?

Started her up no white or blue smoke at all not even when reving her so it must have been cold and lots of white smoke because exhaust gases are hot.

Deffinatly mate, Wasnt a good thing looking at your engine bay though the old mind started to get ideas :drool:
Be careful once you start its hard to stop :)
