I topped up with fuel tonight, and after backing into the drive way I noticed some smoke under the car (and a warm kind of smell - not burning) kind of in the area under the drivers seat after I turned off the engine. It cleared fairly quick.

I restarted it and pulled it forward, before getting out and shining a torch under. No smoke, nothing dripping or looking wet.

So I backed it up again, turned her off, and once again I had some slight smoke briefly from the same area.

It is a chilly night (you can see your breath), but I have never noticed this before.

Any ideas??? Or am I starting to worry again over nothing??? Reformed

Nothing to worry about ..........its just the FBH working in the cold weather

Cheers guys, I was starting to worry. The smell was odd! Just found it weird as I have never noticed that before. Reformed

Just be sure it's not the magic smoke from within the electric system. Once that escapes, nothing electrical will work until you replenish it.

I thought it was too warm today down in the tropical south for the FBH to cut in, certainly more than 5C.down there in the tropics 2018 Mini Countryman Cooper S E All4 PHEV in Melting Silver - it’s whisper quiet in EV and polluter modes
