I have a 1.9 DCi Megane Dynamique,
it went for its mot on Thursday last week, ever since then, there is smoke bellowing from the exhaust once the engine warms up, I thought it may be in need of an oil change, or possibly the oil seals have gone, can anyone offer any suggestions please?

Re: Smoke from exhaust
As part of the emissions testing, the engine can get revved quite high..
If the engine was a bit fragile, it could have damaged something.
I'm thinking "turbo", here..

Hi there,
keep checking oil and water levels daily.
What colour is the smoke? this may give us a clue.

Re: Smoke from exhaust
When was the oil changed and what oil/filter were used?
Any warning lights recently?
Is it on the original turbo?
