I brought my '98 Cutlass to a garage immediately when I noticed smoke coming from under the hood. The mechanic said my power steering hose had ruptured and the fluid was burning. He replaced the hoses, said he cleaned it out. However I drove the 5 miles back home from the garage today and there’s still white smoke coming from the same place. Is this residual fluid burning off from the previous leak, or is my problem more complicated?
“Is this residual fluid burning off from the previous leak, or is my problem more complicated?”
1) Probably. 2) I doubt it.
It should get a little better each run. Have them re-check it.
