Causes Analysis
1. If your car produce bluish smoke during start up, it could be your car is burning engine oil. It normally cause by the failed oil seal. A failed oil seal enable the engine oil flow into cylinder via the valve clearance under the effect of gravity. Once the engine is started, the engine oil and air mixtures will burn together under high temperature, producing a huge amount of bluish smoke. Suggest to diagnose the injector at work shop.
2. If you notice your car via the rear view mirror that it produce huge amount of blueish smoke when you press the gas pedal during drive or idling, it tells the engine is burning engine oil. Pressing the gas pedal aggressively during drive or idling is to check if the seal between the piston ring and cylinder wall is tight enough. If the seal is not tight enough, piston ring movement frequency increases when the car in sudden acceleration, the engine oil left on the cylinder wall will be bring into the combustion chamber by the piston ring easily which produce bluish smoke when it burns. Suggest to diagnose at the workshop.
