RE: Smoke from Engine

I used to get that on a diesel Golf I had - it was just the DPF going through a forced regeneration and the DPF gets VERY hot. Either that or you have oil leaking onto your exhaust!

RE: Smoke from Engine

In winter I had this with my VOLVO. It was the preheater's exhaust Wink
I don't know if yours is fitted with a preheater and if it is cold enough...

Possibly preheaters not fitted in Australia! Laughing

RE: Smoke from Engine

Have you taken the car and the videos into a dealer for investigation? As a 2016MY it is still under warranty.

A Pangea Green New Defender 110 First Edition is now sitting on my drive alongside British Racing Green Electric Mini Cooper SE Level 3. After 21 years in my hands my TDI300 90 was handed on to the next custodian on 15 July 2022.

So there is a possibility that preheaters are installed.

RE: Smoke from Engine

I had some puffs of smoke, 1 came into the cabin too the first couple of regenerations that were done, Scared the shxt out of me as had been driving quite hard then came to a stop and saw smoke drifting in the cabin, till I realised it was probably the DPF.

If it does it more than a few times I'd get it checked though incase it's something burning/leaking on the exhaust.

Well, I don't know about the rest of Europe and especially where you live, but to my knowledge they don't even offer preheaters over here and it gets a lot colder than -2C.

RE: Smoke from Engine

I live near and work in Canberra, never heard of the need for a preheater and don't think we have them here in Oz. Never heard it getting below - 11 or -12 down this way.
