    no warning lights.
    fuel economy varies... sometimes around town im getting 22/23mpg and sometimes i'm getting 28/29mpg... But on the motorway its not bad I get around 35/36mpg.
    Is this right?

    When was the last service done?

    Last service was done at kwik fit, but not to sure if this was done properly. Do you think a service maybe the answer?

    Smokes white, this happened when I was trying to start it. It only happened the once, and a few months after kwik fit were let loose on it.

    Dont think its service related at that length of time.
    I would first get the injectors and pipes looked at and a pressure test wouldnt go amiss!
    If the injectors/pipes are leaking it wont run to well and you may well get some smoke.
    Do you get any excessive black smoke from the exhaust?
