Shit load of smoke
#1
Hi everyone I was stuck on the m5 yesterday for about 20mins then my car just started cuffing out shit loads of grey Smoke I have a stage one map and intercooler does anyone have any ideas
Thanks Rhys
#2
Is the tonne of smoke only when using the throttle?

Chances are it's probably got a boost leak. Check the usually, jubilee clips, seals etc.

Although, greyish smoke is usually unburnt raw diesel in the exhaust, does the car misfire?
A moments silence please, for our brothers in the NAD-zone.

Got no misfire and a small boost leak but that should make the smoke black and was smoking on tickover what sort of psi should I be running ?

And exhaust, if it's grey it's more likely to be exhaust side.

Probably oil sitting in your intake piping.

Rag it more often, and stop granny shifting. Rofl

Probably burnt all the engine oil by now.... lol


But seriously. If you haven't already, do check the level! Just because it's clear now doesn't mean the issue is fixed.
