HI HAVE CORSA DIESEL 2005 1.3, STARTS PRETTY WELL , BUT AFER 2 MINS OR SO STARTS SMOKING BADLY ON ACCELERATION (BLUE) . CAR RUNS VERY WELL AND TURBO WORKS FINE ON DRIVING. AFTER WARM UP SMOKE CLEARS AND VERY LITTLE COMES OUT INJECTORS TESTED OK. ANY IDEAS?

NO NEED TO SHOUT !! We're not deef you know.

Blue = oil burning.

Have a compression test carried out (dry and wet) to determine if there is loss of sealing on the valves. I would suspect worn valve guides. If that's ok, then maybe a damaged oil control ring.
