hi i have this corsa d 1.3 cdti on a 58 plate when you start it it smokes for a short time and is smelly then clears and no smoke and drives ok, if you stop and leave it for an hour or so it does it again thought it might be valve stem oil seals but cant understand the smell (possible unburnt diesel)anything to worry about ? anybody got any ideas, thank you.
