I've recently taken my car to the dealer for servicing and they changed the coolant tank as it was "leaking".
A couple of days ago I got terrible acceleration hesitation upon kickdown and got an EPC light and the car went into some kind of limp mode. The problem went away the next day.
Today, I realized for the first time under maximum acceleration that a cloud of white smoke was exiting my exhaust so now I'm thinking I have a blown head gasket as that is the only reasonable explanation as it is burning coolant so that tank was never leaking in the first place, it was just being combusted along with the air/fuel mixture.
What do you guys think? Will be calling the dealer tomorrow to have it checked out.
