2001 S80 T6 I have black some coming out of exhaust

Post by Aoiex »

So sometimes when I gas it I have black smoke coming out of my exhaust and have no clue why. I have been smelling maybe coolant for the past few weeks. I'm not sure if it is coolant or not. If anyone could help me out on this problem so I can get it fixed fast that'll be great!

trust me, if you had coolant coming out, you would know. (plume of white smoke)

If its black, you might have to add some oil treatment stuff like marvels mystery oil until you figure out really why this is happening
