I bought my gt tdi 130 at the end of january, since then i got the trusted map from r-tech and had smoke issues ever since.
R-tech soon noticed that the intercooler was bust and a few pipes had blew the clips.After that i Fitted a forge FMIC and a allard egr delete. i also changed the afm for a new one just to be safe. the car still smoked after this but nowhere near as much.
By this point i thought the turbo one was on its way out.
What other things could the smoke issue be, im now being told dirty injectors.
Can anyone shed any light??
And a pic of how my car is just for something to look at

I've seen a few mapped diesals around my way that like to smoke, is it not just something that happens when tuning a diesal?
Not too clued up on diesals but I just thought it was something that happened?

Should see it when you get tuned diesels at trackdays, there was a Fabia at Combe the other week and the soot on the back must've been a few millimetres thick

Things belching out black smoke look mean!! Some rapidly fast leons. Put a de cat on it, so it makes that funny noise!
