Smoke on low revs
Hi there new to the forum and need some advice, currently on low revs and and motorway driving backing off the accelerator I get puffs of smoke from exhausts, blip the throttle again and it disappears, any advice or known issues?

Re: Smoke on low revs
Best thing to start with is to check your codes with VCDS or something. Sounds like a fueling issue, but there's a lot of sensors and other things that can cause that so to pin it down you'll have to check first if the ECU has fault codes stored in it.
