This my first post, but I have been reading on here a while. I have a 2006 powerstroke with a looney tune, 4 in magnaflow exhaust, pyrometer, and an AFE intake. I was on my way to work the other morning and passed a car. I looked back after letting off a a lot of white smoke came out. I pulled over and returned to stock and after that everytime I got on it alittle and let off white smoke would come out. On the way home it did the same thing. When I stopped at a red light it would start smoking setting still. It is about 50 miles one way from work to home, and it quit all of the smoking around mile 20. When I got home I checked the water for oil and the oil for water. I think it is possibly the seal in the turbo but not sure. Any ideas. I have to put it in the body shop to get the bed fixed where my wife backed in to it and then I will take it to the dealer.

EGR cooler would be my best guess as it smokes all the time. Pull the EGR valve and see if its wet inside.

That makes sense. I have been blowing coolant out of the degas bottle for a while when I get on it hard. Even when the level is below the min. mark.
