Idle Smoke

Question

Searched on this, web is full of turbo to injector to glow plus etc etc etc

Starts great, revs to full no problem, pick up great, runs fine..No hesitations at all, idle revs sit where they should

Cold or warm starts the same, no smoke on start up to speak of.

Sit and idle ok...30 seconds smoke begins [light blue smells of diesel] Drive away and boot it, smoke clears and does not return again until it's idled for half minute.

 

I read a blog by vm specialist [or so he says] He remarked test everything. But, he says tips on these engines [to do with lube/oiling] on starting sit and wait for at least 30 secs, before switching off sit and wait 45 secs...more if long trip and hot weather or continuous fast driving.

Heck of a long piece...Goes into great detail about spindles, turbos, gears etc etc etc

One thing thought was funny. Some guy changed evertthing...even turbo over a 2 month period to no avail. Guy turned the primer 1/4 turn and felt pressure change...Instant cure

Is it true..no idea.

Anyway, any views on my smoke thingy...hope its glow as injectors are silly money although found bosch usa are $364 for 4....[in the Jeep Liberty there..not the town and country].
