yup piston rings, common on our cars!!
yeah i'm almost at 180k and have the same problem......
Yep same here at 150k... it slowed/stopped for awhile when we replaced the head and gasket ,but, came back after a few break in miles. Nothing major just an occassional puff...
actually, smoke upon startup and extended idling is going to be from worn valve seals / guides.
very common.
If you replace the head with a rebuilt , will it come back? how soon?
6g's unite !
ps i dont own a 6g
