Hey guys I really appreciate the replies
I’ll try and answer them all in one message , so I took it to my garage last Saturday as I was concerned about the smoke etc he checked everything , he said I have a very small oil leak, which I’m booked in for , to sort that out and an oil change , I don’t know if that could be causing it . But with the smoke is wasn’t bothered at all, he just said it’s cold outside that’s why you can see it .
it’s really hard to describe , it’s not thick white smoke , it’s almost transparent like when someone is vaping and you see the vape dissolve into the air, it’s just first thing in the mornings I notice it , I’m going to check when I leave work today at 2:30 , if it does it I’ll take a video .coolent doesn’t appear to be going down, everything is as it should be engine wise , it’s very strange , as I’m not getting any other issues , temp rising , high revs on idl etc the car drives superb still and performs well.
i will be back with a video soon , thanks for all the help so far guys 🙂

So I just went out and started the car and revved it and nothing lol typical , could it be it’s still warm from when I drove to work this morning? I just don’t understand how the garage said it’s normal lol

Is the smoke white/grey or blue? Does it get worse during hard acceleration? Is there a thick coat of soot on the spark plugs?
I haven’t checked the plugs , I’ll check them today , no no I wouldn’t say it’s any of those colours , the only way I can describe it as vape smoke 💨 , I’ll try and get a video

Hey guys
Hope everyone is good, I’m new to the forum as only having owned an Audi a year or so. I’ve had an 2001 s3 and recently bought the A3.
so I have a 2005 A3, 2.0 8p with 87k miles.
I seem to have this problem when idl and pulling off from lights, I get smoke from my exhaust , it’s not cloudy white smoke , more like if someone was vaping behind my car 🤣
coolant levels fine
oil level fine
engine sits at 850/900 idl
when warmed up temp is 90 and no more ,
no lag or loss of performance , it’s just this Smokey problem I seem to have .I don’t know if it’s cold or it’s just cold outside . We haven’t had any warm weather for me to tell any difference lol
has anyone encounter the same problem ? Thank you
