My 4.5 has recently started to let out a small amout of blue smoke when i take the revs high in 2nd and 3rd gear ( 6-7000rpm)from somwhere in front of the gear stick.. any ides what this might be?? I'm always carefull to warm the engine properly before taking it above 3000rpm and keep daily checks on oil levels etc

I had this on my C8ERA when it had a gearbox gasket leaking. The fluids were drippin onto the hot exhausts and smoke was comin through the transmission tunnel. May be worth a look underneath... my fluid was a red colour.
