[QUOTE="BlackCat, post: 422618, member: 565"] First of all, welcome to the Club's forum and the Ampang TT thread. If you have not already introduced yourself in the 'Newbies' section, please do so in that section and do use the 'newbie template'. For questions that you have posted above, it is best to post them in the proper sections in this forum to get the best responses [this is a members meet up thread anyways]. However, to quickly [and perhaps roughly] answer your questions above [as no details are given as to the make/model of your ride], there are various reasons as to why you experience the 'leakage' & 'white-smoke' issue, [LIST] [*]oil leakage [LIST] [*]burnt/warped gaskets due to engine overheating [*]cracked engine [the most dreadful cause] [/LIST] [*]white smoke [LIST] [*]non optimum combustion of fuel [air-fuel mixture] [LIST] [*]air-flow sensor malfunction [*]leakage to the combustion chamber [/LIST] [/LIST] [/LIST]These are just a few of them and are of my own 'inexperienced opinion'. There may be various other reasons, or a combination thereof [it usually is]. The best is for you to run a proper diagnostic test of your ride. To do this, just go to any of the 'specialist' workshops. Any of these 'specialist' workshops worth their salt would have a diagnostic tool to run the specific tests. It is also a good practice to get a second opinion on the diagnostic and the quotation for the work to be done for comparision purposes. Good luck and keep us posted. BlackCat [/QUOTE]
