I have a 1.4 8v corsa b and its seems very smokey lately. Ive got a performance airfilter on it but ive changed back to standerd for mot* sake. and my car is still really smokey till youve been driving it for 5min. Just wondering why its doing this? it has done 111,000miles

I also put alot of redx into £5 worth or petrol wuld this be causing my smoke prob?

Cheers

If it goes away after 5 mins and it's white it is steam. It's not a problem and is normal when you burn petrol.
