Well I panicked... I spoke too soon about the fate of my 560Sl.Well it seems the mechanic found that I had a faulty transmission modulator that was sucking oil into the engine and causing the engine to smoke on first start up. It was also 1500 miles and I used a quart of oil. Not bad according to the mechanic. So, I guess I'll still be holding onto it.
