Smokey every time i start my 2003 97k td4.
First time on a cold winter morning or tenth time of the day.

Feels flat for a couple of seconds then clears with a rev.
Goes like a train other than that.
She's still under a local dealer warranty.
Any help will be most welcome.
Ta very much.
 
i have a 2006 td4 auto hse and when i brought it i was supprized to see a bit of smoke on start up as my old one a 2001 td4 auto gs never did ,LR told me it was normal it is the way the engin is set up for the emissions ,whether that is true or not i shall find out , as i need to cleen the whole intake system out as it is all cloged up, but they did say it would get worse as it got colder and it did.
 
Thanks.
Still snowy and cold or raining around these parts so i ain't had much time or weather to do much.
I think a check and clean of intake an glow plugs might be in order.
