Hi All,

My A6 2.7T (1999) has started blowing out BLUE SMOKE when starting the car from Cold. I think it's serious, Any ideas on what could be the problem??

Thanks for your help..

Could be piston rings, oil seals but unlikly to be turbo as that would be white smoke.

There’s no saying as it may be none of the above but if it is get a specialist to do the work as Audi will slaughter you.
