Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

    Hi lads any opinions you have for me would be great.

    Last night I was pulling away from a junction, not fast or anything and I could see a bit of white smoke behind me, not mad levels but a noticeable haze.

    I pulled in and it wouldn't do it again if I tried.

    So I drove it on again and pushed it on after a few mins and all the power was there and everything.

    No loss of coolant, oil etc or any mixing going on.

    It traveled to Dublin this morning for work without a hitch!

    I'm in that position where I'm not sure if I can trust it, you know :rolleyes:

    The DPF has been removed and the swirl flaps also.

    Always serviced on time with proper 5w-30 LL04 grade oil.
