i presume this is a td6, on top of the engine at the back is a breather system housing which has got a filter inside. the unit is supposed to be changed annually and only costs 30 quid, thats most probably the cause of the pressure build up. get it changed and see if that helps the smoking issue aswel, if you need to see a picture so you know what to look for go on famous four web site and go to the 322 section and look under service items.

Thanks arron for reply changed what you said bought a kit for £13-50 which Inc filter and seals works perfect now many thanks for that I have one more fault now which is when I drive the car from cold as it reaches 50mph it hits a flat spot with no power for a few seconds and then picks up. Any ideas.

is it rev related or speed related, if you use it in manual/sport mode does the flat spot happen at a certain rpm or only at 50mph in top. at 50 mph the torq converter locks so could give the impression of a flat spot momentarily i suppose.
