Have spoken to garage about my Mazda,ref valves, they don't have a clue but have said they will change the inlet valve, would this cause the car to smoke loads just in the morning if it was faulty?

Thank you for getting back. It is blue smoke that pours out, but only in the morning. All valves, seals and stem seals have been replaced. They are now going to change the inlet valves.

Stressed!
Change the inlet valves? But i thought they'd changed ALL the valves already.......

Thank you yes well I'm getting confused with what they've replaced and what they haven't. Apparantly this is the last thing to be replaced that has any bearing to oil leaking onto the pistons over night. Could they have bodged the valves, 2 engineers have looked at them and say all is ok and they don'tunderstand how the oil is still getting in. The car is still missing and is getting worse as is the smoke in the morning. I only took it in for a flaming service!
