I have a 53 plate tdci that has been spewing out thick black smoke whilst cold & although it starts it doesn't always accelerate. Once warm the car drives like a dream. I took it to a garage that specialises in diesels, injectors & pumps. They put it on a machine it said no faults, despite filling the workshop with smoke.
They then took the injectors off & tested them, 2 came back with a fault so they reconditioned them & cleaned the other 2, but this still hasn't fixed the problem& the bill currently stands at £500 plus vat & they don't know what it is but want to run more tests.
Has anybody got any ideas. I begrudge paying £600 when they haven't fixed it.
