Smoking

Post by phillster »

Hi,

Just done a nice long trip in my new 406, car done really well and soo comfy on the motorways just cruising along at 70.

I noticed one thing tho on way home today, the traffic was really bad on the motorway and the car was sat idling for longish periods or going very slow and when i accelerated to pull away again to higher speeds it smokes for a little while before clearing, is this normal on the car or do i have a problem if so wat could it be?

Cheers
Phill
