Please give us all the history and info on your car. Year,Miles,service done,previous problems,flooded?,gas used,type of driving it got,short trips,hard driven,ever thing you can.

its 2004 drive 28000 km and it stood still for some months and it is driven short trips some times hard but usually smoothly i think the car has never been flooded

JRichter

that's never good on a rotary engine if it was never started during these months...

Did it start behaving like this when started for the first time after it was sitting?

atliing

nope it was running fine for long time after it stood still and it was this summer when it stood this happened this all started with idle problem the engine started to miss the rpm down for a sec and it was always like it was dieing you know.... :S

JRichter

I would check the plugs for a start. What color is the smoke? Is it throwing a check engine light?

atliing

yep it flashes engine light but after few sec it get still th smoke is white mayby little blue but mostly white

Old Rotor

When it's cooled down check the coolant level. It might have a leak into the combustion chamber.

atliing

if the cooland lvl is pretty low and it is leaking in to the combustion chamber. what can i do??

Just top it up, but if it is a leak it is serious.

Rebuild if it is actually into the housing.

it isn´t leaking i went to the dealer and he scanned it in the computer and it said that one rotor isn´t making exploses because of spark plug dose not work right
