2.0 TDI exhaust

[gregozedobe]

only when i give it a bit, and then only sometimes... (done 4,500km)

Any particular pattern to the "sometimes" ? Eg if it only ever happens when you take off hard after idling for a while (eg at lights) then it might be valve seals.

Is your engine's performance (power) consistent and OK, or does it vary or is it a bit slower than other cars with the same engine and gearbox ?

Does it use any oil, and does it use more around town or in highway running ?

I noticed after a few days of revving past 3,000 in gear shifts, seems to be less smoke now. Maybe just needed a cleanout!
