Help please before I take it to the stealers, my 01, 1.8 petrol Hippo 54k has decided to take up smoking.
Had the head gasket replaced 1500 miles ago, all seemed ok until it started losing power when it was warm, after a short journey when switched off for a around 30 mins, jump back in and its all juddery.Abs light was staying on longer than usual & also the emmisions light would come on for around 5 mins after starting it then go off.
Changed the idle vavle and throttle sensor, still no change then today it decided to Smoke the street out when reversing off the drive, the smoke is white and plenty off it, checked water and this is half empty no oil in it, so presume this was the smoke, checked oil this is still ok with no gunk in as in head gasket failure.
Any ideas please.
