SOURCE: white smoke pouring from exhaust

Sounds like a leaking head gasket.

Testimonial: "thanks for the info...is this an expensive fix? I'm guessing it is, so not sure it's worth repairing. But thank you for responding!"

Audi 2.5tdi white smoke on exhaust low revs

Hi
White smoke is usually a good sign of un-burnt diesel so reading your post and all the things you have already changed ie the glow plugs I would have the injectors tested to make sure they are atomising properly as it sounds to me like when your car isn't under load ie at low revs you have a cylinder that isn't firing correctly
Hope this helps Nick

Turns over but won't start

I'm guessing this vehicle is a diesel. From your description, it sounds like you may have a fuel system problem, bad fuel injector, bad fuel pressure regulator, or possibly even a problem with the fuel injection pump. The white smoke you spoke of is unburned fuel and you are right the system is flooded and takes a little bit of running to clear out. I would highly reccommend taking your truck to a repair shop. The longer you delay, the more likely that you'll cause additional damage to other systems, for example the starting system and charging system as well as shortening the life of your batteries.
