It's protection deteriorates and falls on the exhaust which causes smoke

What about from underneath, any oil drips showing around bellhousing etc. You should be able to put the vehicle into extended height, open one of the doors to stop it dropping down and slide underneath with a torch and have a good look round, you might need to remove the under tray but that’s a straight forward job 2011 TDV8 Vogue SE |
