I have never owned a diesel car before but mine blows a bit of smoke when started up and then clears when I get going, is this normal or is it a sign of the rings going in it? Is there a test i can do?

cheers

It does have a license plate so technically it is a street truck, that sets off car alarms and makes kids cry. lol
