Re: White smoke?????????
Hi Mozzer
White smoke generally points to burnt water. However, steering away from the nasty head gasket scenario it could just be burnt condensation that has been drawn up the exhaust overnight. I also run a 1.9dg and have the same problem when the engine has been left for a while. Also the damper the morning the larger the amount of smoke. During this milder spell I have noticed there is less smoke on start up.
