Lots of blue smoke, primarily after idling then under acceleration.

Well I guess Ill give the speech on this one.

As EVERY SINGLE other person will ask;

Fuel in oil
Poor Economy
Loud Engine
Loss of power


BAD INJECTORS

Theres a small chance its something different though.

Dont worry your covered by a 7 year 200,000 mile warrenty. So you pay nothing.

Also fill out a sig it will help people out who are trying to help you.

hehe. you have options. 1. gather diagnostics from a programmer, or autoscan thingy. check balance rates. (this is not solely responsible for the determination of bad ones, but a good start) 2. get vehicle to dealer, explain symtoms and get them to check fuel system. many here have experienced taking vehicle to more than one dealer to get the truth. i did. 3. do nothing

average time of losing vehicle is one week. i waited two due to "backorder" of injectors.

yes I forgot to mention that many dealers will lie so they dont have to do injectors.

I had to wait one day.
