Good day, I'm Sbu from South Africa. Would this be applicable to BMW 2012/08 F30 N20 engine, has twin turbo. Has white smoke on startup, but pretty huge/enormous white smoke on startup, but afterwards smoke disappears. Is it the same diagnosis?

We have heard from other car owners of different companies that this problem exists on many car, so you might expect this to be the problem with yours as well. You should look on a few BMW forums from other owners to see if that is what solved it for them as well. This problem was solved by us checking on a Mercedes forum, and got recommendations from a mechanic at Mercedes on the forum. If you search Amazon and eBay for Banjo bolts, you will see them selling these bolts for many car brands, and apparently these newer bolt designs with the back flow preventers in them seems to be a common fix for this common problem.

@@carbuying I have been watching instructional videos with my Dad for yrs. And I have to say, by far this was so straight forward and to the point. You dont have cheesy music or even an annoying voice. You had our full on attention . Giving us the part # and where you bought them from. Super helpful. I already bought these pieces because I too am having the same issues . My smoke thats blowing out is blue and not white.

Very good video, so thanks for the quality of your video images. I replaced the banjo bolt without any issues but the two supposedly OEM copper crush washers ($15 each through Parts Geeks -Yikes!) for sealing to the top of the housing I received as an "OEM Part # ending in 6513 are indeed too large and should have an ID of 10mm, not the 13mm size. Otherwise the washers won't seal the housing to banjo bolt properly. I just reused the old washer from the defective original banjo bolt and hopefully there will be no leaks using it; I have heard some people, including here, have just used one correct-size washer, Teflon tape, and no washer at all and have had success. Those 13mm washers, along with the rubber o-ring, appear to be used with the oil line itself and not the banjo bolt. That bargain FCP Euro kit mentioned from another viewer here also has just one washer and the rubber o-ring. There's a lot of confusion out there about all of this and Mercedes should make these issues clear! So there are actually two separate issues to deal with - 1, the easy banjo bolt replacement causing the start-up white smoke and 2, oil leakage leakage coming from the oil feed line above the turbo due to a deteriorated rubber o-ring at the block housing. The latter is a lot more difficult to deal with due to clearances and tolerances to remove/replace either the entire oil line or just the rubber gasket. One last thing - removing the lower rear heat shield 10 torx bolt requires that you remove the two bolts housing the dipstick feed tube so you can pull it out of the way to get enough clearance to get a socket in there to remove it completely should you need to remove the oil line itself. Hope this helps future "do it yourselfers".

a single puff of smoke from the tail pipe thats only there upon first startup is also a leaking nozzle/fuel injector because when you shut it off at night it drips all through the night into the cylinder untill the fuel rail pressure subsides, and makes a pool of gas on the piston top that turns into that puff of smoke when you start it up the next day

There's really no way to tell without seeing it in action, but if the engine oil is dripping off of where the turbo bolt plugs in, then it is likely that it needs this fix here in order to seal that leak. If not there is likely other spots where your turbo can leak. We had a $900 repair about a year later than this for other gaskets that leaked around the turbo that needed to be replaced.

Does the smoke stop within a minute or so of the engine starting, if not it might mean you have oil leaking inside the engine, turbo, or exhaust somewhere and the repair shop will have to find it.

It can be a bit of a head scratcher. The way banjo bolts work is there is supposed to be a washer on the bottom side of the banjo and on the top side of the banjo, where the banjo bolt tightens down on top of the banjo. The Mercedes TSB called for a washer and a gasket, although we have seen forum posts where service techs say you need 2 washers. But upon removing the old banjo bolt, we only saw one washer, it was on the old banjo bolt, but no second washer under the banjo fitting. So is the second washer needed or is the gasket needed? We chose to install the gasket, and likely either scenario would work. The real issue here is changing to that new banjo bolt with the flow restrictor. As long as you have a good seal, it likely doe snot matter whether you have the second washer, or the O-ring. We also don't know why Mercedes said to use an O-ring when you normally have 2 washers for the banjo fitting. At least the fix works as we implemented it.

Or should I have screwed the bolt with washer onto the banjo with the o ring being on top of the banjo? Does it matter?

@@aidensmith6461 There's still some confusion about this. Usually on banjos with most cars, there is supposed to be a metal washer on either side of the banjo, and the service adviser at our local Mercedes dealer confirmed this with the E350. At the time we ordered all these parts, we saw from other owners that the parts purchased as part of their dealership repair included the O-ring, but no one knew where it goes, we've searched all the Mercedes forums, and no one has a clue. In this video we placed it at the bottom side of the banjo where it made the most sense, and there has been no leak at the banjo. I would suggest you try one metal washer on either side of the banjo, and hang onto the O-ring. If you see any leaks at the banjo, you can place the O-ring there, but we suspect you'll be just fine with a washer on the top and the bottom of the banjo. Look at parts stores online selling banjo bolts, you'll see their banjo bolt kits usually come with the 2 washers. Because of the nature of the repair and often times critical nature to Mercedes specs, we made sure we bought Mercedes only Banjo parts, but they are all sold separately. If we could ever get our hands on the TSB it might shed exact light on what to do with the O-Ring.

I don't know on the Swift but in my kia picanto it was the pcv valve, but it was nothing like it's shown here in this video, it was a lot of white smoke and the car would lose power. Took to three different mechanics, in Italy where I lived, all three said the same thing, this engine is gone, buy another engine. The last mechanic I went to found an engine, charged me 2.5k euros for the engine and work replacing, kept my old engine, and a few months later, same problem. After much research I found information about the PCV valve, bought a new one for about 5 euros, replaced it in 10 minutes, it has been four years, never had a problem with the car again...

@@bobbuilder5576 I actually got a valve job done, replaced valve stems, seals and it's smoking a lot lesser now, yet to replace the pcv valve though

Could it be because it’s cold ?

It goes in between the banjo and the engine block

Its not clear, where does the washer and seal goes to,

The whole oil line needs to be removed. The 2 washers go on either side of the banjo fitting on the lower end of the line with the new bolt through it. The rubber O-ring seal goes on the upper end of the line where it connects to the engine. Don't skip any of the seals and don't use Teflon tape recommended elsewhere.

stop pointing at me!

I'm so thankful to find this information. But this guy doesn't know how to use a torque wrench. I felt sorry for that poor bolt as he kept turning past the click repeatedly. He's lucky he didn't ring it off.

6 nm not 60 nm 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Yup, that's why we prefer torque in ft-lbs not in fig newtons! LOL

You used the torque wrench incorrectly. At the first click and second click you stop tightening.

Some people are very particular about this. Try loosening a nut with an adjustable wrench flipped the "wrong" direction, and people will come out of the woodwork to pounce on you.

Same I'm scared.

In the morning white smoke was from condensation because it's cold in the morning. So now you know another reason for white smoke in the morning.

Someone needs a lesson in how to use a torque wrench !! 6 nm ? one click and and a bit more then 2nd click and a bit more. you have Probably just twisted the banjo bolt. Thus partially blocking the already reduced hole. Don’t even get me started on the stupid head gasket comment

You sound really cocky as though you think you know the answer here. A blown head gasket is one of at least 4 different causes, but we already know the cause on this car was the Banjo Bolt seal, which is one of the other possible causes. If people listen to you, they'll be making an expensive engine repair for no good reason.

Do you even understand how the turbo works on the car? I have the same exact car and I’ve taken the whole engine apart and put it back together so I think I know what I’m talking about. I was just trying to help before you get coolant mixing with your oil and then it’s game over.

@@Veaker Clearly you don't understand how the turbo works, and you're an OCD troll who just can't admit you're wrong. You never paid attention to the video. Mercedes issued a Technical Service Bulletin covering this exact failure, and it's registered with NHTSA. People should trust Mercedes engineers over you who changed your own oil a couple of times. You forgot to mention we showed that our turbo repair solved the problem in the end, no more white smoke, because that doe snot support your fake news trolling. You just keep digging a deeper grave for yourself because you can't let it go. Why don't you make your own video on how to change the head gasket to solve the problem.

@@carbuying I don't understand how this fixes the smoke issue. General workings of the turbo, the oil doesnt enter the exhaust or inlet sides of the turbo as they are 3 separate parts ( except for when excessive wear has taken place and some residual oil can ) can you explain how this fixes the problem please? The one way valve would be more for start up to make sure no delay in oil pressure which can cause premature bearing failure.
