Hi All,

I Know nothing about renault 5s this is my first one, the car is pretty good really but it smokes :mad: - on all my other turbo cars i have owned i have just changed the turbo and thats sorted it. got a new turbo on order just thought i would ask you people:) if this sounds about right??? - start it up and let her idle after about 4 minutes when she is getting warm i get clouds of blue smoke out of the exhaust, car goes alright boosting nicely but as soon as you let off you are surrounded by oil smoke.:cry: please help, thanks in advance....si
