Hi All,

The car had a full service and fitted EGR restrictor plate - I must say it has helped 50% ! Thank you Chris for this great idea!!

The next one will be Terra Clean in January - fingers crossed.

Since the car had full service, I note it produces a puff of white smoke in the morning (when i first start the engine) only for 5 seconds and has bad smell too. but Its back to normal with in seconds - Hope this is not worrying ?

I also hear whirring sound from the engine / Steering when its cold - only happens when I turn the steering left / right ( 1st / 2nd gear and when its cold). is this something worrying or is it just the steering pump needs replacing ?

apart from the above its FAB no major issues.

Thanks

Thank you Chris - much appreciated.

Please can I check if you got any engine management light (or warnings) switched on after the EGR restrictor plate was installed ? 

Thank you

Abbas

Hi Peter,

Thank you for your reply. I have contacted few Terra clean services offered around Chester.

One of them advised me that the black smoke on acceleration can be because of faulty injectors (burring more fuel and not controlling the flow from the fuel pump).

This was a common problem with Jags up until 2004 reg.

I think i might try Teraclean first and see how it reacts to it.

Best regards

Hi all,

i have a Jag X-Type Diesel 2004, 85K. I See black smoke when i accelerate in 2nd & 3rd gear. 
​1 - cleaned the EGR valve
​2 - changed the air filter (used a performance filter)
​3 - there was split in the hose pipe from intercooler to the EGR - replaced that too.
However, I still see black smoke - not sure what do to ?

Please can some help, it will be really appreciated.
