Better you get Forscan. Check codes for glow plugs and DTC for no consul lights.
There is no SCV on the 2012 E5 - there is a pressure control valve on the HP pump.
Transits are not all the same. 2011 Mk 7s were changed from E4 to E5.
Different coloured smoke and smell can indicate source.
Check for pulsing at the oil filler.
Info' re' your vehicle can be put in the signature. Mileage at year, RWD, FWD etc.

Was DRRB 74 KW 100 HP 100 cv. Now CYR5 125 HP. PCM could still be for 100 HP.

You don't have to have a fault light on to have fault codes stored....you still need to check for any historic or current fault codes, if any are stored, they may give a clue as to what/if any issues will be.

As tranmx2 mentions, Euro-5's don't have an SCV like the Euro-4's. Have the injector "adaptions" been carried out..??

Injector adaptions are a service function, Forscan or IDS can do them.

Twin batteries..?? If so, check the front one.....Check for poor earths behind the passenger headlamp, under the PCM.
