Goooh
good day,,
Here's a puzzle,,2004 F350 PSD dually,,edge tuner,,afe cold air intake,,diesel site coolant filter,,boost,,pyro,,trans temp gauges,,mbrp turbo back 4 inch ,,not cat,,but used the muffler.
Now about a week before xmas it started blowing a blueish white smoke out of the exhaust,,could not get int dealer until today Jan 6,,so,,2 hours in the shop,,tech brings it out and says,,no codes,,nothing wrong,,WHAT??? look at the smoke,,he still says,,nothing I can do,,no codes,,Ok,,no
service rep and I have a sit down,,so they updated the computer with the latest program,,and said,,drive it for a couple of weeks and see whats happening. Now I get home,,I park in the garage,,and idle it up to 3000 rpm and hold it steady there for about 3-5 minutes. I let the turbo cool down a few minutes,,then shut it down,,walking around the truck looking to see if anything is out of whack,,I see a puddle of black goooh on the floor,,it seems to have come from the muffler intake joint. Its thick and gooy,,but not oil. Any Ideas or thoughts would be helpfull,,Thanks

My exhaust gets to be blueish white when its real cold out and that is normal.
When I drive to work and start out in the valley where is is coldest (-50F) And I head towards Anderson AK where I work about 100 miles away. As I go up into the Mountains where it is warmer I can see my exhuast turn all white and when I get to the top the exhuast clears up.

I dont have the squinting issue yet. When its smoking the blueish white smoke is it only at startup or does it do it after the motor is warmed up? Does it smell like fuel? That material you described from the muffler sounds like what coated my egr valve when i pulled it at 30k miles. Thats weird

Trying to help you here scrufff with the post. You could be passing coolant through the exhaust, the black gooo is soot mixed with moisture. Have the dealer technician do a pressure test if the problem still exists.

I think I have it figured out,,I think there is an oil seal or bearing gone in the turbo,,I can see a oil stain on a pipe directly below where the downpipe meet the turbo exhaust
