Hi All,

My car is running rough, a diesel 159. The engine was rebuilt last year after the timing belt went etc etc.

Later 2 injectors were changed and the other 2 checked, all within '' parameters ''. Compression test done, all perfect. The flaps were removed when the engine was rebuilt cause one of them broke.
DPF replaced last year.

But, it runs rough, a bit smoky at starting too, Power is still fine but its a bit rough under acceleration too. Garage cant figure it out.

Any ideas ?

Hi OP

I had a similar issue with my GT a while back. For me it turned out to be the EGR. It was running rough for a while but power was still there, then one day, lost power altogether. Replaced the EGR and solved the issue.
