Is there anybody out there that may be able to shed some light on a frustrating problem I have with my 110 2.5lt turbo-diesel.
The symptoms are as follows:
Sometimes on starting the following happens, the engines races at an alarming speed and there is a thick cloud of smoke comes from the exhaust. If I depress the accelerator there is no difference, but the engine starts to make clattering noises.
This continues for 2-3 minutes and then it clears itself. I have replaced the turbo for a re-con unit. But has made no difference. Has anybody experienced anything like this, who could give me advice. This is starting to become expensive.
Cheers
