Has anyone had or know why this would be when I first start my 2015 2.7 ecoboost every day it kicks out a little whitish smoke? It only happens the very 1st startup of the day?
is there something wrong with the motor or is that normal with the turbos?
I live in AZ so heat is an issue truck only has 30K miles on it?
Thanks any and all feedback would be helpful...

 

you may have a tsb truck if built between april to January 2016.

 

He has a 2015, so no.

Yes "smoke" is normal on ecoboost. It is actually condensation in the exhaust getting heated up into "smoke" if you want to call it that for simple terms

 

do you make alot of short trips where the engine isnt getting all the way up to temp before shut down? that'll make it worse.

 

Normal. But if you wanted to check the level on the radiator once a week to make sure it doesn't move, that would pretty much rule out anything you might need to consider.

 

If it smokes immediately at startup then there might be a problem, steam takes a little time to come out.. He also states that he lives in Arizona so I don't know if steam is going to come out of the exhaust. When it's 90+ outside it's not cool enough for condensation to form in the exhaust.

 

my 2016 5.0 does that as well. something to do with cat i think

 

its not condensation as its AZ its definitely a much heaver smoke then condensation. I need to check the build date as I am seeing a lot of TSBs on this page?
Does anyone know if there is a TSB for 2015?

 

Grambo99, I'm in AZ and my 2015 2.7 which I bought a few months ago is now doing it too. Took to the dealership and nothing's wrong per them. The EcoBoosts "do this". No issue with coolant or oil. They pressure tested it.

Did you fix yours? This is crazy and it's getting worse each day it seems. No rhyme or reason. I've seen some posts for a PCV valve or cover. Anyone can help?: I've got 78k on it and don't know what to do.

I saw the bulletin for the 2016 but mine's older. Any help appreciated.
