Engine makes popping sound then smokes happens
Hi all,
Is anyone familiar or has this happen to them? My engine has made a popping/firecracker sound when I unlock the car and them smoke appears. It smells like exhaust. This usually happens when the engine is still warm. I just had the intake hose/manifold replaced after the code P2279 came up on an ODB II scanner. This popping sound happened twice before the manifold was replaced and it just happened again after the manifold replacement. What's going on? My car has 151K miles.

I don’t understand, your inside , you open the door , then it Pops? Or your outside a running vehicle and you unlock the door ? What does the code scanner say ? Where is the smoke ? How does it drive ?
