Driving along a road with the car warm, but having just been stopped at the shop for say 30 mins. Had been running for about 5mins after leaving the shop and I was on medium throttle at about 65kmh and I looked in the mirror and it was like i had just started the car at -5degC. I could see the exhaust smoke in the rearview up around the rear window. It cleared rightaway, and was fine right after, even when revving... just one of those things, or impending doom?
Car has just 3100kms on it and had just been on a long journey this morning and early arvo, Ie over an hour each way up the coast and back. I'm trying to do more long journeys now as VW say my short round town journeys are not helping the rings bed in and I needed some sustained (and varied) revs. So up the coast on the Freeway and back on the old pacific hwy. Car has had two oil topups due to oil lights, one at 1350 and one at approx just under 2700.
Interested to hear thoughts, not panicing.
