mastiff Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 Hi all weekend at last. I was on my way to get the kids from school started the car and saw smoke possibly exhaust gas coming from the acuator. Stopped the car started again no smoke but the arm seems to be twitching all over the place and the engine sounds rough. When i got back from school i blanked the egr. Any ideas please i have not had her long Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mastiff Posted March 22, 2015 Author Share Posted March 22, 2015 I dont know if this is related but could it be the head gasket leaking on somthing at the back of the engine and causing the smoke it does smell like exhaust gas but only happens at start up and last about 60 seconds.i found an oil tide mark at the front Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
