I am buying a Ford Galaxy 1.9 TDi.

 

 

Can anyone comment on whether I should be worried that there is some smoke/fumes visible when the oil cap is removed when the engine is running ?

 

There is also a hint of this also when the dip stick is removed.

 

 

Should I be concerned ? Planning to buy tommorrow (Monday). :lol:

I'm more worried as to why you running the engine with the cap removed!?

 

If its up to temperature then its reasonably normal to have vapour from both - it should look more like steam then anything else, like a 5 minute old cup of coffee in a room at normal temperature.
