Hello... Hope you guys can help me. I have a 2005 New Holland TC55DA EHSS with 600 hrs on it. Always taking good care of. Went to go start it the other day to move it out of the way in extreme cold weather and noticed it was blowing white smoke out of the breather tube. At first I thought it was just hot steam in the cold weather. Later I started it again (weather little warmer now) and still white smoke. I pulled the oil filler cap off and it too, white smoke and popping noise and some compression air coming from the filler cap. I pulled the radiator cap, although I don't think the thermostat opened yet,no bubbles. I don't wrench much on diesel's and sure could use some help, as to what may be wrong. It never smoked before, this happened all at once! Thank You!

We've seen more than a few of this model with blown head gaskets, sounds like that's what is up with yours.

I hope that's all it is!!!!! How much should I pay to have a head gasket replaced at the dealer?
