I started my 325i up after 2 weeks of not using it at all, due to my leg being in plaster.

I was a bit concerned as initial start up there was a bit of a splutter and then it was great, engine was fine, although it was kicking out a bit of smoke at med - high revs, which smelt a little like like carbon/ burning.

I let it get to operating temperature and revved it throughout the range.

You think it will be ok? Does it just need a bit of a blast to get the crap out?
