## Discrepancy

(CAN) ON START UP THE CREW NOTICED SMOKE IN THE COCKPIT & CABIN.  AFTER SOME TROUBLESHOOTING THE CREW SELECTED THE LT & RT ENVIRO SWITCHES TO THE OFF POSITION & THE SMOKE DISSIPATED.  THE ACFT WAS INSPECTED & DISPATCHED UNDER THE COMPANY`S MEL PROTOCOL REQUIREMENTS.  WHEN THE ACFT RETURNED FOR MAINTENANCE A POST INSPECTION WAS COMPLETED AND IT WAS DETERMINED THAT THE ACM WAS LEAKING OIL INTERNALLY. THE ACM WAS REPLACED WITH A SERVICEABLE UNIT.  HIGH POWER RUNS WERE PERFORMED AND SYSTEM FUNCTIONAL CHECKS COMPLETED WITH NO FAULTS FOUND.  THE ACFT WAS RETURNED TO SERVICE.
