Srt-8 Smoke on start up

So i start the car up after sitting over night and the damn thing smoked badly enough the embarrass the heck out me. $45+ for a car that smokes with only 1000 miles on it, i don't think so. anyone else have this problem? if it does it again i guess i'll take it bak to the dealer i've only had it a week. My grandmother's cordba used to do that to me, hated it.

RE: Srt-8 Smoke on start up

sounds like the fuel injection system is leaking by and filling the cylinders over night and when u start the car its "loaded" up . This was a problem for us older guys back in the good ole carborator days. Also the early fuel injection systems sometimes had bad "Cold Start Valves" causing loading. Hopefully its an easy fix. Take it back and let them look at it asap. Glenn
