Still Smokey Diesel - Extended warranty cover?

The chips dont alter the turbo boost, on turbo diesels, the boost is around 18psi anyway. This is preset via the wastgate, so unless the chip can unscrew the regulator and adjust it then it can only alter the fuel coming into the engine!

The VAG TDI's do. The turbo pressure is regulated by an electronically controlled valve.

What you state is true for the old skool engines like the PSA XUD. Then again these can't be chipped - hence the infamous screw mod.
 
does it leave soot tracks? if so its really ill.

does it drink like a fish?

you have a mitsubishi thing right? my sis has a shogun, possible same/similar engine, that doesnt smoke.


did you put millers injector cleaner in it in the end? that worked a treat on both my audi and merc. audi had a wobbly idle, it fixed that, the merc smoked on full bore, it stopped the smoking

by smoking i meant a light haze in ppls headlights (who were usually rapidly disappear in my mirror). good engine, shame the car was pap
