Smoke from dipstick.

[Ry_Tower]

About 1 liter sa tinakbong 3t km to 4tkm.

Naalala ko 2 or 3 weeks bago ako nag change oil (every 5Tkm) nag add ako ng 1 liter sa engine.

Malakas na konsumo ng engine oil kung ganyan. Mukhang piston ring may tama.

I have a very old diesel engine at hapos 1liter lang sa 10K kms ang konsumo.

I would defer the overhaul... When the smoke is unbearable and the oil consumption is like 1L a week.

kapag di mo na kaya yung fuel and oil consumption, then its time for an overhaul...

Agreed, agreed, agreed. However, I would defer the overhaul... When the smoke is unbearable and the oil consumption is like 1L a week.

I have an Innova Grab car with the same dipstick smoke issue since 2016... Now 3 yrs later, 160k km... Still serves its purpose, no worsening of smoke, eats 1L oil every 6wks...just in time for its change oil

Did you own it from new? At what mileage did it start eating oil? Just trying to get an idea of this engine's lifespan.

No smoke from oil cap. Very little smoke from the dipstick, na pansin.

Another thing to look at would be the turbo oil seal. Is the turbo leaking oil?

Assuming no leak, if you want to be sure about the condition of the engine, get a compression test.

Seems they don't make them like they used to bro. I took an old school diesel to 300tkm+ and it still only had very little blowby.

May traces of oil sa tube ng engine air filter.

It was brand new. I brought it sa toyota commonwealth for pms. Until warranty expired.

Now i have changed oil sa motech or shell.

Regular yung change oil ng innova.

If i put full synthetic oil 10tkm yung next oil change. Pag semi or regular oil 5tkm.

Hinaan po yung volume malakas yung sound.

Do you have any trusted shop to recommend a compression test.
Di ko trust yung toyota commonwealth( had a problem with the ac blower and the solution they did was change the "air filter".... not the cabin air filter but the engine air filter.)

Car is toyota innova diesel 2014model.
80tkm odo
When the engine reach operating temp(Temp guage needle is above 5 bars) i check the dipstick and saw some puff of white smoke coming out. It was barely visible.

Mas mataas pala yung consume ng diesel. Since my last change oil.
From 6.9kpl to 6.4kpl accrding sa front info display.
Ngayon 1 full tank only reaches 290kms. Dati 320kms


Should i be worried?

AT? trafficky city driving? those km/li figures are normal. i get 'em.

that video of the smoke from the dipstick opening also looks normal.
yespo, a compression test seems the only way to avoid guesswork.

good luck.

AT sir. Medyo trafik route. Id say mga 40 percent ng daily route is slow moving traffik.

How long does it take to reach 10,000km? 12months?

6 months roughly, sometimes over. But never reached 12 months.

yun din naisip ko...



for me it's the easiest way to see the condition of the engine... lalo na when looking at a second hand car...

yung iba nga buong oil cap ang tinatanggal... pero since maliit butas nung dipstick, mas madali makita yung kung may smoke

Well.. dyan ka mali... smoke on oil cap and dip stick will not tell a good or bad engine condition.. mas mag worry ako sa too much oil consumption or rising oil level!

Nung binenta ko yung auv namin na may isuzu c190 engine bilib yung tumingin kasi wala syang nakitang usok sa dip stick at oil cap.. di nya alam loose compression na yung makina..

Try mo slightly block yung air intake inlet mo using your kamay or thick basahan at mawawala yang smoke na yan sa dip stick

[yapoy86]

How can i check the pcv valve? And i dont know where it is.

And one more thing. Napansin ko lang yung tension pulley may slight wobble. Baka kase connected.

No pc valve sa diesel.. did you put the right type of oil at motech change oil? Baka mali yung oil at nasusunog.. also gaano katagal yung 1 liter na oil consumption

Actually di ko alam yung oil. Sinabi ko lang sa mechanic na regular oil lang and no flushing. When done di ko na nakita yung bottle ng oil.

1 liter of oil consumed around 5Tkm

yung innova ko, 2013 model, 10w30 yung oil, walang oil consumption. ipa check mo na agad sir, baka lumala lalo yung sira.

may nakita ako dati sa FB page ng Berrima Diesel PH, injector issue, excessive blow-by sa oil cap o sa dip stick din ata.

A little oil in the intake plenum is normal. Leaking turbo oil seal normally shows itself at the lower half of the outer housing of the turbo. If it is coated in oil and nothing is dripping from above it, it is probably leaking. In that case the turbo has to be rebuilt with a repair kit.

Assuming no turbo oil seal leak and the crankcase breather tube is not clogged you can go ahead with the compression test. I had one done at Edmel engine rebuilders. They look trustworthy naman.

Yun nga.. baka mali yung oil type na nilagay sa motech... di ka sure eh... baka pang gas engine nilagay nila..

At 80k kms bata pa yan makina mo para bumigay agad unless may something out of the ordinary na nangyari..

Your video clip shows the engine is normal. Perhaps you need to get checked for paranoia.



The smoke came from the dipstick tube not the dipstick. It is still normal.

It is not normal. We have the same engine with three Innova's in the office. None emits smoke in the dipstick tube. That is usually a sign of loose compression.

Only a few engine show smoke even in the dipstick tube. Mostly truck engines, I forgot what nga lang.
