Ok I know I need a rebuild due to water seals. Every time I finish driving I have crazy pressure in the radiator and take the coolant in the over fill, and put it back into the radiator. That is not the problem I'm having hear. The problem I'm having is on COLD STARTS is that it smokes up the block, BAD!!! I'm adding a video of my car's smoking problem to this post. It smokes till O.T. and then it's fine but it doesnt do it all the time. If it's completely full with oil then sometimes it wont smoke as bad... I need help with this one please, And one of the wires on my ACV fried, how I have no Ideal but I'm goin to get on from Pick a Part soon as I can find one up there. By the way mine is a S4 Vert. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7jdvMQAIQRE

I can't tell if it's white or blue smoke. I had the problem with my fc and it was the water seals. When running, it was pushing exhaust into my coolant and when the car was off, coolant was dipping into my exhaust. This made it so every time i started it, it was burning coolant making it smoke. If the smoke is white and it's sweet smelling, it's your seals

Yep, if it's white and sweet smelling, coolant seals. Like you already said, you need a rebuild to fix your coolant seals. You're just burning a lot of coolant.

It is my coolant seals, It's doing the samething by pushing the coolant in to the over fill. I'm replacing the engine with a S5 Turbo engine to fix it...
