Hi all, have noticed my 1z 1.9 tdi has become smokey, black smoke, compression good, loads of power etc.. does not use loads of oil regularly serviced and done 100.000. is this ok
Hi, its a E TDI (german conversion ecu etc) had a friend behind me in wales camping the other week who also said it was a bit smokey too.
loads of power, runs nice but smokey..
diag plug and vag-com definitely worth it if you ask me - I'd check your intercooler pipes, and inlet post-maf and see if you have a slipped clip somewhere. Limp mode tends to kick in in higher gears and higher speeds, so you might not have caused it to kick in yet..
