Funny cause all of the cold start videos I watch, none of them do it. Yeah, white vapor after about 10 seconds, but not bluish gray. Guess you better take your truck in.

No, I don't stand at the rear. I remote start my truck while walking up to it. It's not carbon. It would be black. It's worse than that video most times and easily noticeable.

No problem. You should see the sarcasm on the Harley website, but the first 2 guys telling me it's normal is BS. There's an oil leak somewhere. If it was fuel it would be black. I've been around high performance cars for longer than a lot of you have been on the planet, except this is my first...

Blue/Gray...Bluish Gray as in oil burning. How would you describe it?

Normal. Then why haven't I ever seen it before and what's the cause. It's not condensation vapor, that's white. You guys sound like a Harley dealership. Everything is normal.

Started seeing some light blue/gray smoke on cold start. Mostly after sitting overnight. 36K miles 2020. Took a video this morning and went to dealer. Showed the service writer (who I've dealt with a few times, good guy) so they can't say they can't duplicate it. Can't see me for 2 weeks. Like...

Been reading up on it and could possibly be a turbo oil leak. Will keep an eye on it and talk to the dealer. 36K on the clock so I'm good.

Nick, what's the current price on the Venomrex 602 17x9 12mm offset? Do you have the bronze in stock? Thanks Frank

Guess I wasn't clear. The Raptor is the one that has the problem. Not the Bronco. Trying to find out if anyone else experienced this so I have some ammo going to the dealer.

Since I bought a 2dr Bronco, my 20 Raptor has been able to rest a little. I recently noticed bluish gray smoke when I start up the Raptor after it sits overnight. Only lasts for about 5 seconds then turns to vapor. Guessing it might be valve leak down, or oil seeping into the turbo. Like I said...

My 2020 truck has been flawless for about 25K. Around that time, it started clunking on shifts even in normal mode. Thought it was the driveshaft or trans. This is something I'll have to bring up with service.

I use a Fumoto. I changed my oil 2 days ago. Got exactly 6 qts out and put 6 back in. Drain the oil, plug the pan, then remove the filter. Unscrew the filter a little and let it drain out the hole in the skid plate. No mess at all. First engine I've had in a while that doesn't use any oil at all.

I shut off all those nannies before I left the dealer lot.

You're kidding right? KO2's noisy? If these new Goodyears are as noisy as my Duratracs were on my AT4, you can keep them. The more the Duratracs wore, the worse the noise got, to the point of giving me a friggin headache. Also, their sidewalls are probably gonna be a lot softer, just like the...
