Diesel Fuel Injection System Help Desk

[Dieseldude]

Hi Dieseldude,

I just bought a 2006 Starex CRDI with around 50T mileage. The engine seems fine if I don't press on the gas pedal to the metal. But if I need the power and I step on it, the engine just blows thick black smoke. I recently changed the oil and air filter, but it still emits black smoke. On top of that, my fuel consumption is only around 6 or 7kms/liter. I would love to hear from you. Thanks.

Check air intake system for restriction and/or collapsed hoses.
Check turbo boost.
Check EGR.
