I've noticed that when i'm boosting above around 4000rpm, there's crap flying out of my exhaust. It kinda looks like a cloud of dust or something and it doesn't happen everytime i'm boosting.

My car doesn't have smoke on startup, or spit that crap out under about 4000rpm.

Can anyone enlighten me on what it could be and how i might be able to fix it?

Yeah you might want to look at a new engine, new turbo or the fuel your using...

Could also be need for a service, you havnt serviced it enough or just new oil.. could also be a seal but i doubt it as you would see smoke on start up ..

so you got abit to look at but hopefully its just oil hey

i know i'm running waaaay too rich, so hopefully that's just the problem. it seems like it only does it once or twice after starting up before clearing up.

i'm in need of getting it serviced - so that could also contribute to it.

I was installing the numberplate on the rear of my car and looked in the exhaust and could see the insides of my canon were coming apart. I used a pair of pliers and pulled all this perforated metal out that was blocking the outlet. Then started the engine and gave it a few revs and all this fine dust came out in a big cloud. The canon is obviously rooted but its not noisy so meh

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By Duncan · Posted

      Before I get to the test day, just to finish off the android head unit. This is a demo from car start up....the standard/host system takes a few seconds to boot (same as all v37) but Android comes up quickly. In this vid I'm using the delivered launcher but have set the default to Agami since which is easier to navigate when if use primarily 5 apps. You can see the host system still takes over when required eg putting it in reverse, and you can switch between Android and not by holding the back button 3 sec. It is pretty responsive (fast) but you can see I had to press harder than expected a couple of times.  I still have the phone connected to the stock system, and that also seamlessly takes over Android music playing. v37-android-demo.mp4 The bigger reason that I put this in though is so that I can use Ecutek directly on the head unit. That gives me a dash with logging (up to 20MB only), high and low value warnings on any parameter etc etc. I've run a USB cable from the Ecutek OBD dongle to a USB input on the unit, easy. v37-ecutek-demo.mp4   The unit did freeze on the launcher the other day, I think Agami was trying to verify the license when it didn't have a data connection...will monitor and report back if there are any other problems but so far I'm very happy with the upgrade.

      So 10/10 times that code is coil packs? I mean if that's the case ill drop the $400USD or so to replace them. I didn't know these cars threw codes before the issue became an issue.
