Hi
Please could someone give me some advice if possible.
My Tigra's timing belt snapped approx 5 weeks ago. I took it to the garage with the RAC and it took approx 4 weeks to fix!
This was down to the head gasket, water pump, valves, timing belt set etc ( basically everything associated with that problem) being replaced. It cost me over £1000 which is more than the car is actually worth but i was in a catch 21 situation at the time as the bill just kept creeping up!!
Anyway the issue im havin now is when I start up the car alot of smoke comes out of the exhaust (greyish colour), it seems to clear slightly once im going but as soon as I stop in traffic etc its blowing out again, which is pretty embarrsing and no doubt choking the people in the car behind me :-(.
The smoke doesnt have a strong smell really and I dont get a fuel smell etc in the car.
Please codul someone advise me if they think this is an issue with the repairs I have had done or if its likely to be further work? Also if this is further work would you know approx if this is going to be a procey issue?
Any help would be much appreciated
Thanks
