personally mate i would check your fluids oil and water and make sure they havent mixed

also just check you are still getting heat from your heaters

Take it to a specialist mate... my MY99 did that when I blew my 1st engine in it. Not saying thats what you've done, but sounds very similar to my problem... Covered the whole road and surrounding field in smoke/steam out of my exhaust. [:o]

Cheers,

did you have the car running prior to this without actually driving it,could be just moisture/fuel build up in exhaust,get that a lot with new cars because of so much stop start driving,

cheers guys i think its because ive had a full decat exhaust fitted too you can see the condensation now instead of the cat absorbing a lot of it  i took it out today and gave it some serious wellie then came back home smoke all gone thank god  scoob lives to fight another day grant

Well Grant I think it may be because you have silver wheels on the car just now instead of big gold ones,common problem wi they RAs they dont like it.
