condensation?
« on: 11 April 2008, 11:30:41 »

From when I start my car up, to turning it off (ten miles later after usual work run) There is always a "condensation" "smoke" coming from exhaust? My astra usually does this but goes away once engine is fully warm. Any ideas??  :-?

That's not unusual in cold weather.   Could be that the Omega exhaust is hotter than other cars when it exits the tail pipe and the water content then condenses out as it cools.
