Hi, I have a Vauxhall Astra 1.6 8 valve which has recently stated to get very smokey on start up and now when idling or sat in traffic, when at speed it runs fine and there does not seem to be any smoke. It does use a fair bit of oil, but that seems to be a known thing with these cars, I have been reading through other forums and there seems to be conflicting problems mentioned by different people.

As its 10 years old I dont want to take it to a garage and get a massive repair bill more than its worth.

Any Help please
