I Always keep it maintained. It's really weird only at idle. And it comes from the exhaust. But only like 30 seconds. If I raise the rmp it throws more smoke then goes away. I hope it ain't the headgasket, although it don't overheat. I've never worked on k/f series before. I hope it ain't hard

If you pull off the radiator cap and start it up dose coolant soot out the radiator?

IDK, have you checked your fluids? If it's coming from the exhaust it most likely is either coolant or oil. Can you smell it?

Thank you very much for your help, thank you all. I actually live in NM. Well I scanned it at work and got a code p0410 and p0420. I looked it up on alldata and I can't remember exactly wat the codes where but neway i followed procedure on alldata and found that my air pump 60amp fuse was blown and a temp sensor at the bottom of the radiator was broken. I replaced that with a connector I had from a eg, hey it fit! Well all is good now. Thank u all again.

I know there like 5 bucks for the seals, but would u happen to know how much I would have to pay I can take the head off. Would I have to take the head off?

Also, look into an English class at your local community college. Not trying to be rude, but honestly I had a hard time reading your posts.

you talk alot without saying much.


what color is the smoke? does it smoke when you first turn it on? or only after a long drive? have you noticed your fluid levels being lower than normal?

i was going to say valve seals but dang already .. you must be beating the crap out of your car man .

My suggestion is bring it to normal opp temp and have a compression test on it just so you know what there at.

Second, pull your oil cap off while the engine is running and see if any smoke exits the valve cover.

Third, wen you see first site of smoke out the tail pipe quickly kill the engine and pull your plugs. You'll have the same smoke come out of whatever cylinder is causing the problem.

Lastly I'd say bring it to may shop cause this is the same method I used on another s2 but your not local.

Hope this helped gl.

Well I see it kind of blue I guess i can say. But the smell is Oil burning I know that for sure. And not when I first turn it on, it has to be warmed up pretty good. I can rev it to about 6500-7 and it won't smoke. I checked the breather hoses cause I thought maybe oil was going threw there but nothing. I only drive it on the weekends but I'll check the level tonight and see if it's below level.

If you need to take it to a shop, Science of Speed is probably where you want to go.
