hi all
Ive just cleaned the egr and manifold but its still v smokey when accelerating or stood then pulling off.
Acceleration ok but turbo seems to cut in late. Otherwise it starts and idles ok.
The car has been stood for last 5 week or so due to using 2 wheels will the egr or anything else have stuck, or has turbo had it

Thanks for any replies

check for splits in the intercooler pipe, its the large pipe from the bottom of the egr valve.if the pipe is split it will cause black smoke and a lack of power around 1800 rpm.

Had pipe off and no splits all vacuum pipes to turbo and egr ok
What do need to look at or do next?
could it be turbo, egr valve, air mass flow sensor/valve!! as a mate has suggested
