Smoky TDi

(1/2) > >>

Range Rover Blues:
Quick question for the Deisel gurus, our TDi is running ok, just that if I've been driving "carefully" for a while then I pull away from traffic lights or roundabouts for example it smokes like the proverbial.

Is there anything I should be checking?

It's still got the particl filter in the exhaust but has a 1 box sport/utility system fitted, big intercooler and I know the pump has been tweaked but not how.  Head is skimmed and the injectors are brand new.

138,000miles recorded.

Any suggestions?

clover:
I'd say it was normal for a tweaked motor with a bigger inter-cooler. All the ones I've followed chucked black smoke out when under load especially. Anything other than black smoke then I'd say you definitely have fueling issues.

trecfive:
Give it death occasionally,it will blow the cobwebs out of the exhaust

wizard:
Put a new air filter in and a bottle of fuel treatment in the tank and see how thing go.

wizard :twisted:

Range Rover Blues:
Ok, thanks guys.  the Air filter is a K&N which I've just cleaned so I'll see how that goes.
