[QUOTE="AT-Sixx, post: 733261, member: 35217"] Hi bros I was away on holiday for a week and when I got home - I started my F30 to run the engine. (A) A huge ball of white smoke from the exhaust came out for a good 30 seconds (enveloping my porch)and gradually the smoke thinned till it was clear emission (after about 2 minutes). (B) The following day (abt 12 hrs later), I started the car again - still got smoke but less than previous. (C) This morning, same thing - got smoke like (B) above. In my mind, white smoke means burning of engine oil. This should happen during the whole drive not at initial ignition. Any ideas ? tqvm in advance. Rgds [/QUOTE]
