Black smoke and turbo boost hesitates

[kylezx7r]

2009 2.4 LWB 77k

Today I drove about 20 miles and all was fine. While I was at my destination the van was started and ticked over for about 10-15 mins.
Then I set off about an hour later to come home and straight away had a problem, the turbo boost hesitates it feels under powered and it's firing out a load of black smoke until the turbo eventually comes on boost then it pulls ok and the smoke clears

I had the EGR valve changed in November so shouldn't be that I don't think, or could it be the turbo or something else

Any help is hugely appreciated

Just been for another drive and still the same but I also noticed that if I Rev the engine when stood still it revs as if there is a misfire, then engine judder sand gives out a puff of black smoke.

Changed the air filter and fuel filter, engine runs exactly the same but now I have an engine management light on

Can anyone give any info on this?

You'll need to get the codes read by IDS....probably a stuck EGR but getting codes read will give and indication of what's going on...!

Exactly right sir, the EGR was knackered. It was just replaced in January so the garage I used replaced it yesterday again free of charge.

The garage I used was Durham diesel services and they were great. I would have expected to atleast pay for their time but they didn't charge me anything.

Result so is it fixed now?

I fitted the updated black egr as fitted to newer transits and mine is much better, no flutters etc

Is anything else required when fitting the newer style EGR valve Loot?

Smiling and fitting EGR valves doesn't usually happen in the same sentence..! One assumes a nice cuppa and biccies were consumed at the same time?? ...when I did mine some time back, I found it much easier to remove the manifold...cleaned out the manifold while I was in there too...Next time it goes south I might go the "black" type valve..!

I managed to fit the egr mostly 1 handed and gaskets and bolts from above i only removed the intake duct

Yes i know I'm a freak
