    Soot deposit on petrol Leon FR exhausts

    Basically the exhaust on my TFSi FR usually has a coating of black soot on the bottom portion of both the exhausts every day (I do approx 86 miles each day).

  8. Excess soot production

    I've noticed of late that my good ol' tractor sometimes produces a large dose of soot, more than I've noticed in the past :think: Coming home from Liverpool on Sunday evening, I was trying to reproduce the soot output but I can't consistantly make it happen. Banging through 2nd, 3rd and 4th...
