Hi All
On my way to work earlier about a mile from home when setting off from traffic lights I heard rather loud bang from the exhaust and black began to come out.
There were no red warning lights and the temperature gauge stayed where it should.
I pulled in opened the bonnet expecting a clue to it all but nothing, everything looked and sounded fine.
After that she drove like a pig kept throwing black smoke out when trying to accelerate. still no lights etc. But seems as if not enough air or fuel getting through the system.
Any thoughts and help welcome!
Please help cheers
 
If it has a turbo i would be looking at that or the pipes to and from the intercooler.
Thanks, just checked hose underneath the throttle body and it’s got a rather large split in it. It happened last year and I chose the less expensive hose. Won’t be doing that again.
Thanks for replying

That would kind off cause the black smoke , the price of some of the hoses is extortionate
