My car smokes pretty bad in the morning when its cold and then sometimes when i downshift it smokes white. The guy whos doing my clutch said it was probably my rings which i know is pretty expensive to fix. Will it cause a problem if i keep driving like this?

what exhaust are you running stock or aftermarket? Cat or Test pipe

RE: Thinking of selling.
 

aftermarket 3 in full exhaust no cat i think

your probably running rich. I doubt its the rings. But a good idea would be to try and do a compression test just to rule out any engine failure issues. Do you have a check engine light? oh and what are your mods

Are you sure its 'smoke' and not just steam?

RE: Thinking of selling.
 

catless exhaust will smoke alot too. Do a compression test post the Numbers we can tell you if your motor is healthy with that. I bet its nothing to worry about but without seeing it I cant be sure of course

alright. something is ****ed up. My car is huffing oil from the exhaust which it always has done but now the smoke kind of smells like gas. Im gonna sell it but what exactly is the problem?

RE: Thinking of selling.
 

is cause you have no cat. All turbo cars burn a little oil , even my Evo. all turbo cars with no cat smoke out of the exhaust, and all turbo cars run rich , and depending on mods and the car somtime rich enough that it smells and can burn your eyes (like my Evo)
