Video of car running here (http://www.iainel.co.uk/files/keep/Fumes.avi)
I've only noticed ths since the cold weather, so I don't know if it's normal or if it's highlighting a problem.
It runs fine and idles by itself, not noticed any drop in power, I've checked for gooey oil, oil in coolant etc which seems to be okay so it shouldn't be a headgasket failure? (It is losing coolant (only a few mm a day) but I believe there's a leak in the system.)
So anything that could be causing this excessive amount of fumes/moisture? I doubt the car behind me in traffic appreciates it. lol
Edit: Just seen bubbles of air escaping up in to the header tank. Will do a compression test later :(
