Have you dipped it and is it losing oil and you're having to top it up? Blue smoke is never good. In diesels blue smoke usually means burning oil i.e. seals might be wearing out. Bring it in to them and get it checked or it'll be costly in the long run. Also a quick google suggests they might even try putting an additive in your oil that swells the seals and temporarily 'fixes' the blue smoke - until around about the time your warranty expires Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meath_Villan Posted May 20, 2013 Share Posted May 20, 2013 thats what I was thinking bof but if I "log" the problem during the warranty if it happens soon after I would have legs to stand on that the problem wasnt fixed the first time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BOF Posted May 20, 2013 Moderator Share Posted May 20, 2013 Sounds plausible. It definitely sounds like it's worth a visit either way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ford go one step further with the Galaxy, no spare at all, they just give you a can of tyre weld foam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If not why didn't you just get it repaired?Go get a second hand one next time. I pay less than £17 a tyre on my Galaxy buying new tyres is daft.New tyre on my car £130 for a "top brand" a part worn with about 3-4mm of tread on costs less than £20 and lasts me a good few months of heavy use Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
