Bought this car and noticed heavy black smoke on acceleration on the way home with it.
Things soon got worse and it now starts from cold, with the glow light on and in `safe mode`, with no turbo until it heats up, then I can turn the engine off and on and the glow light will stay out unless I put the heavily dark-smoking engine under load with fast acceleration, which causes the the engine to return to `safe mode`
I`ve cleaned out the egr valve and replaced the maf sensor, but problem still persists. Can you advise?
Thanks!
