Why might my Peugeot 306 TD be producing smoke?
I've bought a 1997 Peugeot 306 TD 1.9. After a couple of weeks I noticed that when my turbo started to kick in I would get a lot of smoke coming from the exhaust for four or five seconds, then it would be ok. How can I sort this out?

Must be the turbo bearing oil seals failing.
