puffing smoke on 5.3 progressive
Hey guys, I'm new to the site but need some help. I have a 06 Mote SS with the 5.3 progressive V8. Everything is stock except for a magnaflow exhuast. I recently noticed while driving down the interstate that right when the car goes from 4 cylinder mode to 8, I get a good puff of smoke out the tail pipes. It only lasts for a second or so, but it is enough that I can see it in the rear view mirror. Has anyone ever experienced this? If so, what did it end up being?
Any help is greatly appreciated

they havent ever recalled them. they have a fix out for it now but if you are out of warranty you have to pay for it and they wont do the fix unless it is using oil. DoD is pointless anyway. it saves like 2 mpg and is annoying once you drive awhile.

yea stops the oil burning atleast from what i have heard. i cant speak from experience. i am getting a pcm tune from will at overkill to disable mine. I think most all the handheld tuners will turn it off too. I want to get mine tuned out before it starts just incase
