some if you low on oil and when you step on the gas then it gave you smoke and you can also smell oil tho... so check on your oil's also.

if your exhaust is leaking then you can feels by step on the gas pedal while you drive.... when you step on gas pedal... if your car make lots of noise and you didnt gain any accelaretion or if you didnt see your car speed up quick and you hear your motor makes lots of loud noise then you have a exhaust leak somewhere under the down pipe or muffler tho....

another suggestion is that.... sometime when your cat. converter is not good and those thing inside the converter is torn apart by pieces by pieces then it does give you that problem too... so another thing you can do is try to untight your exhaust and take a look inside the converter see if those those i dont know what they call but if you see inside the converter and you didnt see anything and all you see is a light on the other end then it means that its bad need to replace that and it solve the problem... sorry if i didnt makes anysense alright... cause i just got back on this forum... so i kind of slow this day... but please correct me if i wrong and didnt make sense alright. thanx.

first... is the light turns on on the brake.... light... on your cluster.. if so then double check on your brake fluid... or is it the lights come the voltage.... if it came out on the voltage or the battery then i pretty sure that your alternative if bad or poor... this is another thing that happen on my car tho.. the positive wired that connect on my alternater.. that by itself on the alternater.... its broke inside the wraper... it got strap or cut inside so there loosing the juice when i accelarated or when i roll on a bump road... so try to check on that one wired by itseft ontop of the alternater tho... hope this help....
