    have you already made the basic routine maintenance?

    Change Oil, Oil Filter, Fuel Filter etc...

    have the nozzles cleaned, check nozzle spray quality and nozzle pressure.



    Compression test.



    Turbo pressure test. 0.48-0.82 bar

    Check / replace your air filter before you consider bringing your van to a diesel workshop.

    If this doesn't correct your problem, we can fix it.

    bros, thank you for the response. I had just a change oil, replacement of oil fillter & engine oil (mitsubishi oil I bought from a friend working at casa) only last week. Unfortunately kung kelan ako nag change ng oil, nagka problema. Is it caused by the oil I used? Before kasi ang gamit ko castrol, though Ive try to do the maintenance check you told me, baka nga dun ang cause.

    bros baka me known shop na affordable kayong alam na pwedeng kong puntahan, paki bigay naman, wala kasi akong makita dito sa bulacan area.

    thanks uli.

    how about Air Filter?

    ano ba ang viscosity nakalagay sa Mitsu oil mo? ano sa Castrol?

    btw, I don't think the oil brand has got to to with the smoke problem, but I still want to know.

    maybe they use some fuel additives while changing it?
