    Got a question Bros. My 2011, 13.5tkm ride gets smoky when I floor it. It doesn't get much Italian tuneups coz whenever I get to go to Alabang via SLEX or the Skyway, I'm with the wife and kids. So when I'm on my Ortigas- Makati route by myself, and I get a chance to open it up, I notice some smoke out back.

    Air filter was cleaned last 10tkm. Using ZiC RV FS oil. Caltex, Shell or Petron in tank.

    Kulang lang ba talaga sa hataw? Or am I missing something?
    Kulang lang malamang iyan sa hataw bro... Pero, natural lang ang kaunting usok when you floor it....

    Ang aming TCi, na medyo naihahataw ko,- wala namang (maraming) usok...

    Some guys are attesting that fuel helps here too,- like using Unioil's Euro IV diesel... Hindi ko pa nasusubukan dahil malayo ang gas station sa bahay namin...

    Unioil is likewise out of the way for me. Sasadyain pa talaga. But anyhow will try the Italian tuneup while the roads arent too full, and a side trip to Unioil.

    Yeah, sounds familiar. It's not black smoke, more like light gray. It's like you turned the fog machine on. Hahaha!

    But with the smoke comes the kick, so it's goodbye stunned chase car ;)

    Di na ulit nangyari today yung fog machine effect. Floored it once and did not see it. What I liked about the driver to work this morning, is that the GS seemed to be raring to go. A light dab at the throttle and it's off to the races.

    actually napansin ko na din ito dati sa santa fe ko. sabi sa akin sa casa e baliktarin daw yung catalytic converter at ihataw sa expressway kasi barado nga. ask ko kung pwede imbes na baliktarin yung cat e lagay ko sa reverse tapos saka ko ihataw sa expressway. medyo matagal nagisip yung mekaniko nila bago nya napansin na naka-ngiting aso ako

    yup, putol then weld ulit ng baliktad. ginagawa daw nila talaga, imbes daw na bumili ng new catalytic converter babaliktadin nila ang kabit.
