Hi all,
Have a 2007 2.0 tdi which I'm very pleased with apart from an annoying glitch. On the first start of the day it stutters into life and there is a puff of whitish smoke from the exhaust. After that any other start ups are fine. The motor uses no oil or water but the previous owner told me it had been remapped for economy. The mileage is 117k. Would it pass an mot because I believe that any smoke from a diesel is a fail ? Any help appreciated. Just to add the car runs fine and pulls like a steam train.
Thanks in advance.
