Hi peeps got an update,

Drove the car off boost today for about 10 minutes in the morning and evening and smoke seemed to be a bit better???? weird.... power and response still seems fine and the car is running as it always has....
took the oil filller cap off and there was some kind of vapour coming out that dispersed quickly, cant tell if its smoke or not...
It is still smoking a bit but definately better, ]
another thing i meant to ask is, i seem to get funny readings off the dipstick, one side is 5 or 6 inches up the dipstick and the other side is saying im just over the maximum mark.
Just to be clear, when i was driving home on the first day it started smoking i stopped to check the oil and the dipstick just had a little drop of oil on the end about 5mm up, so i put in about 400ml of the mobil 1 oil just to get it home.
This car is confusing a times, but definately going to get it in for a compression test and drive it like miss daisy in the mean time....
ill update as things develop...
