i was driving down the street and punched it and noticed a cloud of smoke out the rear and just wondering if that was normal. parked the car and hit the gas hard again and nothing

 

Was that the first time you punched it in a long while, if so, it is possible you were simply cleaning out some buildup in the engine.....if it is white smoke, I worry about the head gasket

 

If it's white smoke, it's probably just water vapor. Haven't you noticed that almost every car on the road has that coming out the rear when it's chilly out until they've been running a while?

Also, your exhaust will smell very strongly "sweet" if you're burning coolant (head gasket), and you'll be losing coolant (check coolant level daily).

I wouldn't worry about it. Just water.

Then again, you were there and we weren't... so maybe that cloud of smoke really was of the unusual type and it wasn't just a shot of water coming out of the exhaust and vaporizing on your hot tailpipe.

 

Actually you were smoking the tires!

 

thats what I think he did .

 

most likely just water vapor and steam because its so damn cold where you are.

 

I dont think it was the head gasket then it would smoke everytime i hit the gas, the car sat for like a month and i ve driven it just not hard for awhile. Oh well if it blows up its under warranty!!!

 

lol nothing will blow up, these engines take a lot of abuse, it's just water vapor, with the weather and humidity lately, i'm not surprised... my GS would smoke from my house to the next 3-4 miles because of the humidity (that's in the garage too!)

 

had that happen to me a few times but not no more... i wanted to make sure nothing was wrong so i took it in to the dealer and they had my car over night and so on and couldnt find a problem nor the smokeing didnt happen but what did happen they wasted my gas and was on E when i picked it up! LOL
