Hi guys, i have a c class 220 cdi avantgade 2003, with no pdf. I have recently note that too much black smoke come out of the exhaust when accelerating especially on the second gear(manual transmission, 6 gears). Everything else is O.K. No oils consumption, filters changed regularly, good...

Hi I was driving my car quite hard when suddenly a big white smoke came from the back. The smoke was so big that I blurred other cars behind me. I checked underneath the car and I could see some oil along the exhaust pipe. Any ideas would really help. Thanks :)

While out and about today I noticed on pullaway car was chucking out puffs of greyish sometimes black smoke I checked all hoses and they are fine although I think the hose from turbo to intercooler may need replacing it's incredibly soft and feels quite thin. I then checked all the sensors and...

Hi my car failed on smoke test 2008 S320 diesel, Smoke was 5.340/m Limit is 3.00/m I recently replaced a cracked inter cooler hose so hopefully this was contributing to the problem, but is there anything else I can do to reduce smoking? Car was nice and warm for test? Thanks C

Clouds of grey smoke and now the engine won't turn over, is it the head gasket ? It tries to turn but can't.

Me again! My W126 500 SEL permanently gives off white smoke and water droplets from the exhaust no matter how long I have driven for. (like start up on a cold day but all the time) I was thinking it is one of the symptoms of the Cylinder Head Gasket needing replaced however I am confused as...

Hi. Sorry, know next to nothing about cars so might struggle to articulate this. Got an 09 plate e220 Cdi. Fine most of the time, drives well but on hard acceleration I get a huge cloud of black smoke. Accelerates fine otherwise. Worried it might be something nasty. Any help/advice...

Hi all, i bought my first Merc clk 270cdi 2004 a few weeks back, and have just noticed it does smoke alot (black smoke). sometimes there is hardly any smoke other days there is more than normal. I have used injector cleaner industrial strength that seemed to work for a day. I have cleaned out...

Hi, I just got to work a few minutes ago and there is a fair amount of white smoke coming from center of the car when I parked up. It doesn't smell like burning rubber but there is a little bit of a smell coming from it. Other thing I noticed is the radiatior fan (I think) was working really...

Hi lovely people. Just want some advice. I will set the scene. Was driving home from work today all was fine and dandy. Came off a round about and round the bend, after I got past the bend I put my foot down and the autobox kicked down as expected and I accelerated. The car got to 4k rpm...

Hi all, I have an E320 CDI 56 plate which recently has been turning over fine but taking a while to start, on start up occasionally it will blow a big puff of blue smoke which lasts for a few seconds. I've been told that the battery has probably had it, but would this also be connected to the...

I really hope this is not really bad news.........have noticed on accelerating from standing start grey smoke......accelerate hard on motorway.....can generate a smokescreen! only lasts for a second or two at most then clear. No smoke when pottering around normally....:( Any ideas.....I'm...

Long shot I know but I'm in need of a Smoke Silver OS (driver's side) side skirt to fit an N reg W124 Estate. I think the saloon one would fit. Ta!

Hi all, I've had a long on going issue with my 55 plate CLK 270 smoking on acceleration and wondered is it just because I don't do the mileage to warrant a diesel? I do about 6 miles daily to work which isn't far and prob about 20miles on motorway once a fortnight, car was fine in service...
