The horizontal opposed cylinder configuration is frequently offered as an explanation, but answer me this ... I have had two different VW beetles with opposed 4s and never had anything like the same smoke issue, nor have I heard of people with Subarus (also opposed 4cyl) having smoke on startup. This seems to be a phenomenon pretty much restricted to Porsche 6cyl. Even the old 356 4 cyl didn't do it, as far as I know. I don't get it, really. Last edited by Ronzi; 08-08-2005 at 11:32 AM.
