Hi all,

Our 940 Turbo starting smoking underhood last night after driving for about 20 mins. The smoke was coming from the back left area of the engine, near the firewall close to the throttle cable. I snapped this pic:

I will try to get out there in the daylight and replicate, but I'm wondering--even though it seemed seated as normal--if the dipstick had popped up a bit and allowed oil mist to spray the area, enough to get puffs of white smoke going.

Thoughts appreciated.
