Yeah, i think they did...but hey guys. I noticed something this morning that has me scared outta my mind. I was at a gas station fueling up and when i cranked up i looked in my mirror and i noticed black smoke. At 1st i dismissed the idea, but curiosity got the best of me so i shut down the engine and opened the door. well, wehn i started it up again i jumped out and walked to the back only to find black smoke coming from my exhaust. I revved the engine and so far it only comes out when i start it up. Now i had the oil changed about a month ago and i realized that its only like 100miles over due for another.Any clues to what could be the issue?

 

HOW MANY MILES ON THE AUTO? WHEN DID YOU HAVE A TUNE UP ? IS THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER STILL ON THE CAR??

 

Wel, it has 114k miles on it. I haven't had a tuneup and about the catalytic converters... I have no clue. I bought the car about a month ago and now im kinda worried...ok i take thatback...im scared bc i know that normally black smoke is not a good sign.
