Hi guys I'm new here and have bought a non running mk 4 titanium x tdci  ,I was told injectors but as usual most people say that  so ,here goes I cleaned the inlet ,egr,and throttle body  they were very gunged up but not blocked as such ,checked the actuator on the turbo and it looked to be working and free but not using the ignition to see if it was moving and it seemed fine   SO I went for a start. I first just tryed but nope. So got the easy start out. "Something that I don't usually use"  got it started   won't rev up and dies unless I give it gas  and I have a lot of smoke from the turbo area at the back of the engine  but being myself I can't tell where exactly its coming from  DPF blocked perhaps  

So iv got someone coming to plug in his diagnostic machine  I was just wondering if there's something that might stop the revving like a blocked something  or a maf  sensor or something like that  , believe it or not I am a mechanic but iv always been petrol  not diesel   I'm under no illusions that anybody that's not a computer can help but hey   , you don't ask you don't know  !  ,1 thing I did notice was there's no glow plug light when I turn it on,,    I did do a self test on the dash and it gave me 10 fault codes but I have no idea from when or what   

Thanks for any help I can get  cheeRS

First thing to do is gat a Laptop, and download FORScan and learn how to read all of the DTCs

Buy a good ELM327 lead from TunnelRat Electronics to connect to the OBD port.

FORScan:  https://forscan.org/download.html

Well, don't just read the codes as some may be old historic or ones created by someone previously working on the fault. Make a note of them, then clear them, and see which ones  come back, these ones will be more useful to you. 

If my diagnostic guy dosent get anywhere ill do the forscsn  approach  ill prob need it to recode the injectorsc if i need to
