    Hi all just not long bought this r56 cooper. It was running well but now it seems to blow ample after idling for a few mins. Then rev it it smokes doesn’t do it when driving . Just when you stop and let tick over for a min. Then give a rev and puffs smoke out exhaust.
    Any ideas? Was told possible valve stem seals. It’s done 78k miles
