Hello,

If your malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) or "check engine" lamp is illuminated you will need to pull the Direct Trouble Code(s)(DTC)(s) for us. Here is a link for you to go to if you are unfamiliar with how to do this:

Black smoke is usually a sign of your vehicle's engine getting too much fuel. I have included a link below for you to go to about this condition.

Please pull the DTC(s) and get back to us with what is/they are. We will be able to provide you with specific guides to get the problem fixed.

Thanks,
Alex

Hello,

I have included all the factory diagnostic troubleshooting guides for all of the Direct Trouble Code(s)DTC(s) that were listed in the picture that you sent. They look like they are all related to each other, so read the guides carefully, as they will explain which are related to which. Once you get one or two fixed they will start to fall like dominoes. Please get back to us with what you are able to find out.

Thanks,
Alex
