When I try to export my coloured file from InDesign to .pdf some parts of the image turn into greyscale. What do I have to do in order to mantain the colors of the image in the pdf file?

You're not giving us enough information to help you:

You say "some parts of my image turn greyscale"? This is only one image and part are in color and parts in greyscale? Or do you mean "some of my images are turning greyscale"?

What version of InDesign? What file format and color mode are the image(s) in? You can view this information by selecting an image and using the Info panel (Window > Info). Like I'm showing below:

EDIT: I see you said InDesign CC in the title. The current version, InDesign CC 2017?
