Not me , my car .

I was getting the old problem of smoking on tickover and a puff of smoke when pulling away , changed the PCV valves and pipes about six months ago , they were knackered so i thought that might be the problem but no it carried on doing the same :smash:

All pointed towards the turbo oil seals :cry: so i bought a pair , had them re-conned , got some decat pipes and a gasket set .

Right now here,s the wierd bit

Since thrashing round a couple of laps at Bruntingthorpe i noticed the smoking had basically stopped , bit hard to tell unless someone,s following to watch but the sooty build up that used to occur on my n/s tailpipe has got a lot less and no signs of smoke on tickover and pulling away.

Had a good thrashing round Donnington at the weekend and there,s no sooty build up on the tailpipe at all :confused:

Anybody else experienced owt like this or have i got a self healing car :nono:

Self healing car...............how much you want for it? :p

mayb you've run out of oil to burn?

If your PCVs were really shagged, then there'd be a lot of oil in the inlet and even down into the ICs and boost pipes. Can take quite a long time for it to all be burnt off.

You burnt all the oil away Saturday-remember? :tongue:

lol, from watching the vid (cheers by the way bud, i'll get it captured and uploaded asap) looks like you were taking it quite easy ;) lol
