I was trying to keep it light earlier. To go more in depth the car:
*Will smoke pointing
*Is more prone to smoking within the first five minutes after cold start, vehicle has to sit around for a couple of minutes. The only example I can think of was getting held up by a school bus offloading twenty kids recently.
*Seems stickier in throttle response until after approximately x<5 miles. I feel something but if in sport mode of pressed it will pull well. No smoke
*Can be annoying to start when hot. EVery once in a while it will take more than a sensible wrist flick of action on the key. This maybe normal but I have my doubts. Its rare, about one in twenty starts and seemingly no pattern since I have started a log. I typically run RDShell 92 (r+m)/2 gas.
*Does not smoke period under any driving condition other than the as described here and the first post. Tested conditions include all levels of accelerator input in any of the three drive modes up high grade hills, long decent jaunts to 130mph, or level ground runs up to a ton. While under heavy acceleration I can "whip" the throttle up (less input) for a second or so and then reapply max input. Nothing
*The transmission is doing fine :)
*Its been 500>x miles since I ran the battery of test and I have not seen it smoke on startup. It smoked at start up a single time before I started noting details and not once since.
There is a hill with only one side, dead end short residential road where I live visibility for a couple of miles and change. It was graded and paved, well. fun!
