Normal for a cupra r? im having mine checked out friday seems large amounts of white smoke/steam, can't smell anything funny, not losing oil or coolent (did top it up months ago when it beeped hasn't dropped) doesn't seem down on power but i wouldn't know as i've not owned it long the car has done 48k, but always very smokey? warms up to 90 in 5 mins then fans kick in, i thought it might be condensation as i wash the car alot but it should clear up surely after a long drive, when you rev the car gentley smoke is released sitting in traffic waves of smoke can be seen in the rear view, then it will calm down on idle, then pull away and smoke
booked in for cambelt and TIP upgrade but before i spend out £492 im going to get it checked?
worried it could be head gasket, turbo on the way out, bought it in december its got FSH and have had it serviced last month
any other suggestions? blocked oil breather pipe, knackered exhaust 52plate
running it with super unleaded all the time, i think previous owner just used cheap stuff
i hate cars
or maybe im worrying about nothing? i just don't know being a new owner
