Occasional excessive exhaust smoke |
|
Here's an interesting thing. Every now and again my 2010 Disco 4 emits a huge amount of exhaust smoke. It's not on start up and its not all the time. It lasts for a few minutes then everything back to normal. When it happens I'm sure anyone behind me thinks the engine has blown up! No loss of power or any other problem. It's only starting happening since it had an oil service. I've had a look at other posts and can't see anything else that matches this. Any help gratefully received!

Sounds like it could be this.

Hi, thanks for the reply - yes symptoms are exactly the same and my VIN number is 539950 so it sounds like I have the longer pipe
