Hello all.I've had my 96 855 t5 for 6 weeks from a dealer and ive noticed when on full acceleration in 4th and 5th gear at high revs i leave a massive trail of light coloured smoke down the motorway.normal driving i cant see much.The oil level has dropped to minimum from full in that time frame also.
looks like a warranty job for the garage.
cheers
