Have taken appreciated advice-changed fuel,oil & air filters but still smokey. If I start from cold without exceleration there's no smoke. Exceleration in neutral produces dark puffs. Pull off can be very weak & smokey from cold until turbo kicks in (Which can take a few minutes sometimes.) She runs smoothly & without signs of smoke once up and running (Did 370 kms weekend) However sometimes if I stop and rev up she smokes - but pulls away clean. Smoke seems to be associated with periods of power loss. Any more ideas folks-the whole family love our new baby?
