Hi Everyone, been reading the forums for a while trying to get to know more about my new car ( 98 1.8t Avant Auto in Paradise Green ) and have found answers to most things but just have the one question.
When we first start the car and until its up to temperature i get a fair bit of white steam/smoke from the exhaust when you accelerate. I have been keeping an eye on the water and oil levels but neither seem to be dropping. I am getting an intermittant error from the maf in vagcom and will need to get a replacement for this soon but could this be the cause? Only other thing i can think is that its some kind of condensation in the exhaust which i could understand in a stainless one but not on a standard.
Any ideas would be most appreciated
