Hello everyone who have Ford Galaxy reg 2007 2l deesel.
I have a little problem but no one can tell me  how to fix it. Every time in the morning ,when I start the engine  there is  blue smoke comming. When  the engine is warm nothing happends at all. can it be the glow plugs?
We change the  injectors and fuel filter ,but no help...

I have seen this happen before in other vehicles and been told that it is the engine pre-heaters. I can't guarrentee this but it might be worth looking into

Blue smoke is normally signs of piston rings, but like elthria says a lot of new vehicles do this on start up. As long as you are not using any oil and the blue smoke tops once the engine is warm I wouldn't worry too much.

Hi ya.
Like the previous person said so long has you are not using any oil. Live with it. However if you are it could be valve stem seals, while the vehicle is left the oil is running down the valves and when you start the engine it is being burnt away. Hope this helps.
