Hello folks,

Some days, let’s say 10% of time, on startup I hear a loud screeching noise, just like Starter noise I suppose.

And then sometimes it’s is also followed by a bit of white smoke. It happened today and I took photo of exhaust, attached.

AOS was changed at dealer 2 years ago.
No oil leaks under the car.
A bit coolant leak from front left radiator.
I was running the engine with a bit overfilled oil for couple months until I removed some of it thelast weeks.
