White Smoke
Hi there
Can anyone help me with a problem with my Disco 3 2005 TDV6?
After leaving vehicle ticking over for approx 5-10 mins there is white smoke which takes 1-2 mins to clear when driving again
Can anyone help please? (Don't want to hear bad news please - can't afford it!)
Many thanks
Derek

Condensation in the exhaust ISTR it builds up on diesels when the engine is cold at idling as the engine is emitting gases at a fairly low temp...then when it warms up and during acceleration you get the white smoke for a short period.21 year LR veteran > D2 GS 2003 > D3 S 2006 > D3 HSE 2009 > D4 HSE 2013 > D4 HSE 2015 > D5 HSE 2018 > DS HSE R-Dynamic P300e 2021
