To my knowledge it is a non servicable component. still pining for my 3dr, no removeable hardtop, no drop glass tailgate, no roof rack, no pockets everywhere to stow all that man kit |

Is it possible to have some sort of problem with the EGR valve but the only symptoms you have is the smoke coming out from the exaust? (car power is ok i think) Freelander 2 GS TD4, Stornoway Grey, Manual, called BEAST!!! |

Might be worth checking for leaky turbo hose / air filter as this can cause black smoke. |

hi guys, i ve seen this happen when the clip falls of the electronic actuator and the waste gate on the turbo never opens, this could well be your problem. they all do that! |

Hi, I'm new here, I've got 2010 LR2 E-type, diesel with manual gearshift from january this year (6000 miles). Can someone jelp me about this: namely when I put a middle to hard acceleration on the pedal I've got a plenty of smoke (gray or mid-black). The cars behind me are in cloud of smoke. Is this normal for a new car or something is wrong? In the service gave me an unsatisfied answer (the car is new, the fuel is bad etc.). Please someone direct me what to do? |

The power is enormous, just the cloud of smoke. As I read few other posts about the gentle acceleration till 2000 revs and then "give a hell" I've noticed a reduction of the black emmission. Is that the way this diesel should be driven? |
