Hi all
1st time on the forum. I have an 07 2.5lt nav which will not start. I was driving it for about an hr. I was coming into a town so I slowed down and turned a corner put it back into 3rd and went to power on and it was like the waste gate was not opening and lost about 60% power and all of a sudden it started blowing a lot of black smoke and I could smell the unburnt diesel. So I pulled up and switched it off. Have a look under the bonnet seem to be fine. So I get back in and start it up and go to take off and it just wanted to stall. I finally got going when I got to about 2200rpm it was making a really bad rattle like the engine couldn't release the exhaust gas. While all this is going on its blowing a s#*t load of black smoke. I limped it to were I was staying the night which was about 6ks then turned it off and let it cool over night. Went out this morning to see what's going on and now it wont start. It just coughs and spluters and gets to about 500rpm then dies. It has a crook EGR valve which I found out the other day because its thrown an engine light. I no that because I borrowed my uncles scan tool
Any ideas thanks
