Fit a snorkel.

At a guess you have got water into your air filter and it has then been sucked up the air intake pipe.:doh:

Got a snorkel fitted mate and there was hardly any water at the site any way. Seems to be the actuator has seized is this a common problem on the 300 ?

Not usually. My TD5 is forever doing it though. Have you tried gripping the rod with a pair of pliers and moving it backward and forwards. The black smoke sounds more like a restriction in the air intake system to me. Check all the turbo hoses for splits or for de-laminating on the inside.
