ok so now when i was driving the car to the dealership today and my buddy was driving behind me and he said that the smoke stoped comming out. and the exhaust is starting to not smell like fuel anymore. they said that they cant see the car till wensday. it doesnt seem like the car has any drivibilty issues. so i'll have them run the test soon and let you guys know.

good sign that the smoked stoped, but i wonder what caused it in the first place, hopefully they wonbt find anything. still do a compression check to make sure.

ok so the car looks drives and smells the same from the exhaust now i dont get problems just dont fix them selves. maybe putting a load on the car gave it time for the ecu to reset itself....or somthing like that. still going in to get it tested thanks for all your help guys keep you posted..

sounds like a headgasget......also if you have a blown turbo...white smoke can appear from the exaust...but with only 1k on the car...i would bank that its probably a headgasget
