duffer 0 Posted March 3, 2005 Coming home tonight in the dark i was giving my 16v some stick with another car following me. Due to the car behind having its headlights on, i noticed some smoke coming from my car. I've never noticed it in the daylight. Is this something that i should worry about?

Supercharged 2 Posted March 3, 2005 What colour smoke? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
duffer 0 Posted March 4, 2005 I'd say it was darker smoke, but was difficult to tell as it was night. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kevin Bacon 5 Posted March 4, 2005 Just unburnt fuel smoke by the sounds of it..... most cars do it and is usually only visible in bright light such as you saw in the rear view. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Henny 0 Posted March 4, 2005 valvers can run a little rich on run-over... if it was as you were giving it some and changing gear, don't worry too much as it's likely to just be from that... 8) If you're worried, get a mate to follow you during the day and tell your what he can see coming out of your exhaust... ;) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
