So in the past few weeks i have posted up several threads about my car smoking!. it was on every trip and only for 5 - 10 minutes and would stop. No loss of power or problems associated with it.
THEN
The weekend noticed my reverse sensors wouldn't switch of and that my reverse light was on all the time. my diognosis is faulty switch which i am going to get changed in a couple of weeks when car goes in for service. So my temp fix was to pull the fuse on the Reverse light circuit. How ever it works as a temp fix but my Engine light is now up on the dash and the glow plug coil light flashes constantly. all goes out when i put the fuse back in so i know its all associated.
NOW
since i have done this and the car is used several times a day, the car has not smoked at all! whilst this is great, i cant see a link to my random failure of the reverse switch and a smoking engine.
one for Mulder and Sculley i think....... thoughts please
