Hi Boywonder.

You need to be boygrammer because holy crap I really have a hard time understanding what all that is about. Something about a lot of smoke when you were on the gas and the CE light flashing a few times and going out?

The first thing you want to know is what the CE code was which they should be able to tell you. Second get them to look at stuff like the oil seperator and see if it's leaking oil back into the intake in massive quantaties.

Also was the oil blue like buring oil from and old car? Or really thick white like a fog machine? OR just kinda white like grey when people step floor their old **************** boxes and theres lots of carbon?

Blue is oil so something is leaking oil in to the combustion chamber, thick white is coolant so could be a head gasket, grey is running rich. Oil and coolant into the motor can also be a blown motor as well. Definately not good, could be serious.
