What causes a Land Rover Discovery to smoke when you start it?
depends on the color of the smoke. black/gray/brown. probably oil. it is not abnormal for a disco with some miles on it to smoke alittle on start up. the problem is when it is constant after the motor has warmed up. Keep a frequent check on your oil. If you are loosing more than a quart every 3ooo miles then, then do a wet and dry compression test on the engine. Other causes than can cause smoke are: old air filter, fowled spark plugs, old oil, bad gas, some type of substance getting on the exhaust system.(check for leaks), If the smoke is white like steam, then the problem could be a cracked head gasket. I have a 96 with a 130k on it. it smokes alittle on start up, then stops. no oil loss. It is a common problem, but of no real concern. hope it helps. gotta love a rover. duboff

There was a recall on early MINI Coopers for the wiring harness underneath the front seats being too short.
When you slide the seats all the way forward, it caused the wires to either break or for the connectors to snap.
You might get a dealer to replace it with the newer harness and then reset the light for free. They actually should but not all will.
The only way to turn off the light is for a dealer to reset it once the wiring problem is corrected.

What causes a Range Rover to blow white smoke?
Generally speaking, black smoke is fuel; blue/grey smoke is oil; and white smoke
is water. Heavy white smoke is trans fluid. On a Range Rover it can only be water. The bad news is you have a blown head gasket or worse, depending on the year. if your Rover is 4.0/4.6 you could also have a slipped sleave in your engine block. This is common on higher millage engines, but I have seen it as early as 55k miles. Perform a block test to verify. Also remove the center 2 spark plugs on each side and check for pink/orange discoloration that looks like coolant.
