When in the likes of 3rd gear and high revs there is no smoke I can see from the person behind me headlight. It’s only like when the car is pulling away it revs itself up a little and that’s when you see the smoke.


I’ve also noticed at 50/60mpg I use 5th gear too. I used to go straight up to 6th but holding off now. Higher revs tend to return better mpg
