I have recently been noticing an increase in the amount of exhaust smoke that comes from my celica at least when I start her up. Its like a gray/lite blue tint. Could this be an early warning sign of some upcoming problems?

[right][snapback]345914[/snapback][/right] haha, my car has been doing this for 5 months.... smokes when you start it up, just rev it a few times and it clears right out. if you have to add more than a quart of oil between changes, then you should get it checked out, if you dont burn much though, its the valve seals, dont worry about it, just put it on your list of things to do and get around to it some day. |
