Not a clue mate, it only happens under heavy acceleration or full throttle so when pulling away from a roundabout or up a hill.

It's due back in to LR this week to be checked out, either that or I am driving it off a cliff

Here is a vid I took the other night. Not great as it's in Park and the wind is clearing most of the smoke. When driving it is a lot thicker...

The smoke started 3 days before the car lost power when it went into limp mode. Now the pipe is fitted the smoke has stopped and the power is back and the tail pipes are pushed again rather than black and horrid.
