There's still smoke coming from me motor when I start up and take off. Should I be coming in to see you?

How many miles, and how much smoke, as you will always get a wee bit....

It's coming up on 4000 miles and it's hard to say how much smoke to be honest. It still smokes into 2nd gear.

Col, is the engine using any oil :question: do you even check it ;)
It might just be water vapour that's burning off

<looks indignant> I did check it. It's dropped a lil but it's not emptied it or anything. :)

To assist your friendly mechanics you're gonna have to advise how much oil you actually put in to keep it at the same level.
Only then can you really tell if your engine is using oil, it may be a drawn out process, but, should you have any claim in the future at least it is well documented
So, get your dealer in on it now, apart from just discussing it here on NMS :I
