Focus coded 411 after a month car won't turn on smoked a little lots of noise ?

You need a new engine. Smoke is shot piston rings, bad valves, bad seals, cylinder head gasket leaking. Could be so many things. 'Noise' makes it that much worse!

I have a 2008 Honda Element. Today it was sitting idling and it started to make a strange screaching noise and then the engine started smoking. What could this be? I am a bit concerned about this!!

I suggest you check the drive belt as the smoke and the noise will be from something that has stopped tuning and the belt has be slipping . Check that all pulleys are free to move

CAR IS F**KED !

What do you mean by "smoking up and everything."? Was the engine still running at the time? If so, the engine has not seized. Is it making any strange noises? If it's just smoking a lot, but still running and not making any strange noises, you probably just have a leak and and alarmist friend.

Heater and aircon not working,loud rattling noise and smoke from vent,now not power to fan

It appears your fan itself burned out. When a field coil of an electrical fan burns out it usually makes a lot of smoke. The noise could be something that fell in there that stopped the fan from turning freely. I can imagine it heated up under the strain and burned out.

When you restarted it was burnt out so hence no noise and no fan.
The smell of the smoke should also be clue. Electrical field coils burning has an awful soury type of smell.

I have a noise in the fuel tank of my 1999 cadillac escalade is this noise could be cause by a bad fuel pump or a dirty fuel filter? Also when i turn my truck on some times a little biy of blue smoke comes...

as for the noise if it is a high pitched whine that you can hear while the engine is running its probably normal...most of them sound like this. it should be the same sound that comes on briefly as you turn the ignition on before the engine starts. if it is extremely loud, it may be a build up of debris in the filter causing too much back pressure on the pump or the pump may be on its way out. as for the blue smoke.... blue smoke is oil burning in the engine. you didnt say how many miles are on the vehicle but as a vehicle ages it will usually consume some oil as the engine is running. if the smoke only comes out on start up its probably due to the valve seals weeping a tiny bit of oil thru them and its burned up once the engine is running. its not too much to be overly concerned with at the moment, just check your oil level in the engine a little more frequently as now you know that you are consuming some oil at times. also switching to a "high milage" oil may help as they have conditioners in the oil that slightly swell rubber seals in the engine.
