    Is it normal for a 307 hdi 90 to leave a cloud behind me when accelerating
    even when fully warmed up?

    To be honest I don't look! But I think I would have noticed if it was
    there? Suspect it's the same engine? Mine's done 37K now and still
    going OK but flat spotting just over 3000 after major 36000 service?



    cheers,

    Mine does. Curiously, it's much more noticeable in VERY warm weather (in
    Italy, for instance), but only if I look in the rearview mirror while
    accelerating.

    That's right mostly in warmer weather and only noticible when really giving
    it a bit of stick and looking in the mirror.

    Is it normal for a 307 hdi 90 to leave a cloud behind me when
    Well the HDi 110 engine defintely does. Most (all) diesels do, unless they
    aren't fuelling enough for the boost they are running. It's normally
    noticeable in the headlights of following cars at night.

    My 406 HDi 110 doesit when it's hot and sunny. You can see the very light
    smoke out of the exchaust.
