I believe that is pretty normal for a diesel of any age or make, so I personally would not be worried. I do hope it sounds glorious when you're giving it the beans n blowin your smoke! |

Thanks for your feedback, really appreciate it, never having owned one before I was getting worried that there might be a problem.

Most diesel's with no DPF will smoke a wee bit until the turbos spool up after that there should be little or no smoke unless of course it has been aggressively mapped then it might smoke a bit. Cayenne Turbo "S" 521bhp Standard |

I treat the smoke as a proper smoke screen. If someone is tailgating me then I stomp my foot on the accelerator and by the time the smoke clears, I've vanished over the horizon and they wonder where I went!! |
