I had a bad MAF sensor, cleaned EGR and Intake Manifold, changed air filter now I have 0 black smoke, but before that I could block road with smoke for a full minute if there is no wind xD

My M47TU engine started vibrating more last year, in the last month it has started shooting loads of black smoke and the turbine was hardly kicking in anymore with acceleration taking truly painfully long. I'd put my foot all the way down and wait about 30 seconds or so to get to the desired speed. I also noticed that when the engine was cold it performed better or as if nothing was wrong. Now I did occasionally get a check engine light which would go away on its own and come back. On a scan a MAF fault and DME fault showed. I changed the MAF as that is one that does not get cleaned! Once contaminated, you need a new one (on my 3rd one), also changed the gasket that goes onto the turbo inlet air pipe because it was shredded. Performance has improved, the turbo always kicks in albeit still a bit late and definitely not back to normal power. As well as still a lot of smoke, although a bit less than before, except on really hot days when it darkens the past in the rearview mirrors. Noticed blowby on the flex exhaust pipe, lots or oil squirting from the exhaust recirculation pipes that goes on the EGR. Next step is to remove the EGR and that pipe and clean them both as well as having the flex pipe replaced. Will see if these solve the issues.

[@CyesH-we6oo]

Are you getting a lot of blow-by in your crankcase?

[@ChrisKsan]

@@CyesH-we6oo No, I finally solved it. Besides the turbo inlet gasket, it was also the egr inlet pipe which was cracked and leaking air. Replaced that as well and the engine returned to normal.

What an awesome video!!! Thank you so much, I’ll be doing all of those methods this week!

[@marcelocristian3626]

Thanks buddy i have those problems with my 7.3 powerstroke ford excursion and also the glow plug diesel module is not working. I have to eliminate the black smoke that is my mission

[@chrisburn7178]

Thanks for this checklist. I get smoke and rough running accelerating from low RPM which clears up at higher RPM, with a Volvo D4162T. Hoping I don't have to go as far as injectors to clear it up.

My 2005 Mercedes Benz diesel giving black smoke and pushing gas pedal all the way not a acceleration coming in Any possible tips please Thanks a million in advance

[@jacquespoirier9071]

a very important cause it intake manifold or intake valves plugged with soot coming from EGR system, it is why i fear the VW software " adjustment" to conform federal requirements, the NOx content was too high ( an indication for high combustion temperature ) so an easy way to remedy is to increase the EGR shot more economical than install a DEF injection system but with the result that the engine becomes soot plugged much before the end of its useful life meaning that the probability that the engine needs deep service at the charge of the owner is significantly increased

[@aroyogeckster4794]

Why noone ever talks about old, cracked rubber boost pipes? You cannot see the damage until its under pressure and you cant get pressure without the load.

I got a Toyota Yaris off my dad and it’s making tons of black smoke under emissions test, I recently serviced this a few months ago too

Hi I have a ford mondeo from 2004 and the garage changed my injectors and the injection pump and since then my car it’s sending a lot black smoke under acceleration… do you have any idea why this happens?😢

Thank you so much ❤

Hi I have black smoke coming from my X3 e83 deisel turbo there is alot of oil in the turbo pipe and and temperature sensor in the turbo charge pipe will this oil get into exhaust and burn the grey smoke it's only on hard exceratuon I think the turbo oil seals have have gone

[@MechanicBase]

That does sound like oil seals in turbo. Have it checked as soon as possible.

Thanks for the information. Now i know how to get black smoke 😅

[@Skeptic-Professor]

You missed the most obvious. Check air intake pipes for any splits it’s also an easy fix.

[@harwoods11]

And.... Vacuum pipes
