Hi,

First, please understand that this vehicle is not offered in the US with a diesel, but I will try my best to help.

Excessive black smoke from a diesel is normally caused by excessive fuel entering the combustion chamber. Have you checked the fuel pressure to make sure it isn't above the maximum pressure specifications? If not, that is where I would start.

Also, keep in mind there are other things. A plugged air filter, injector wear, or anything that can cause excessive fuel to the engine.

I hope this helps. Let me know if you have other questions.

Take care,

Joe
