Strange execessive smoke

Asked by jahan Mar 23, 2010 at 07:09 PM about the Volkswagen Sharan

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

My Sharan 2003 started giving whitish smoke coming from a small pipe which is opened just infront of left passenger side back tyre. There is no extra noise the way a leaking exaust would give. I left it with a local Mechanic today .He said he has never seen any thing like this before. Any such experience or any suggestion what might be the cause?

    Not the mechanical one, obviously, but the other, with what looks like an electrical opening. I cannot find any switch for that, nothing in the manual. Is it even possible?
