Not the sort of carbon burnt type smell of oil.

So you dont think its normal then?? Posted this on the RB320 site and a couple of guys said theirs do it and nothing to worry about!!

Thanks again
"nothing to worry about?". it would worry me no end, my wagon had a little smoke issue on start up at the geo day, smoked on start up and little and every time i gave it a blip!

For me it turned out to be my turbo seals worn and the housing had a slight hair line crack!

Thing is if it didnt do it when it went in and it does now then possibly somethings been done whilst work was carried out on it.
I hate it when things like this happen and your right you cant just point fingers at people and say you did it, but finding an answer as to how when and why its doing it is so stressfull.


Hope you get it sorted soon fella, RB320's shouldnt smoke!!
