Hi Guys, Ok so the car I purchased had been standing for like 9 months. It is very smokey, and the smoke does not dissipate quickly. The smoke is a whitey colour. I have taken the oil screw-cap off and there is no cream, also have taken off the coolant screw cap and from what I can tell...

For those of you that know Joss on here I am sure you are aware of his great plans for his GTA which is known amongst the GTA community as ‘Smoky Joe’ and we can thank Ned for that nickname! This is going to be a great project although it is going to take some time so this thread will be...

Ok so I brought the missus an 147 JTD MJet and it produces black smoke under hard acceleration. I know some diesels do this but this is too much I think. I suspected the car may have had a crap remap so I pulled the file, emailed it to a friend for him to take a look at. He confirmed the file...

Stilo JTD115 All the logs are in stock condition, only EGR is software and hardware OFF and idle speed is up to 900rpm. The car is an idea smokier than it should be, mainly noticeable between 1300 and 2500rpm With EGR On&Off at least i can see any difference in smoking All hoses and pipes are...

Hi All, I've just bought a 147 1.9 JTD 8v at auction (I know, I know...). On the face of it, all the problems seem fairly minor and a new cambelt/full service is going to happen at the weekend. One thing that did show up on the journey home was the military grade smokescreen behind me...

I had all this done and still the smoke is quite bad. Its done 42000 miles and I know that you do get smoke under hard acceleration but even in 5th from 50 - 70 its like a wood burner thats just had damp paper thrown on it. Could it just need a good service with a bit of engine flush I wonder...

'ey up. When I start my car (1996 1.6 8v Boxer) from cold, I get a lot of smoke from the rear until I have driven off and cleared it through. After that it is clean as a whistle, nothing on the overrun and only a tiny bit on high revs. Where's it all coming from?? :confused:
