Default Blue Smoke

Question! I have blue smoke coming out of my S when I start it, and at times when I step on the gas. Friends are telling me it might be my piston rings. Any estimate on how much this would cost to check, replace, or any places you recommend around SJ?

Ah yes, AAA is mandatory, and don't forget to pay extra for the 100+ mile tow, and ask for a flat bed.

Only one of the four tows is good up to 200 miles. The others are good for up to 100 miles.

We waited 4 hours for a standard tow truck two weeks ago. Not fun.
