Does any body elses 1.4 multiair turbo smoke quite heavily when first started up? It's kind of a white/ grey whispey smoke that rises up rather than pluming.
It seems to go away when the car is warmed up, except when reversing when it chucks it out again?
I do have a TMC motorsport box fitted which has made it a bit worse.
I don't seem to be using much oil. Have only topped up slightly since I bought the car in March. I have had to top the coolant up slightly (it dropped from MAX to MIN level) which does concern me... I have a slight yellow film under the oil cap sometimes but the car is sat sometimes for a week without any use. The coolant looks the right colour. It also starts first time without any problems and doesn't misfire, MPG looks about right and power isn't down.
Is it worth getting the head tested?
