Hi all.
My viano has had problems for a while now. It smokes heavily under acceleration.
It's fumey on idle but under acceleration of over half way pressed pedal it chucks out lots and lots of black smoke.
it's been to a few garages but no Merc specialists yet.
I know it has a slight leak in a intercooler pipe but garage thinks this isn't enough to cause the amount of smoke.
I have changed various bits, injectors, air filter, ect.
so question is, is there any chance the fuel pressure is too high somehow? I'm thinking it's an electrical problem of some sort.
should mention it has no codes.
I do plan for it to go to a specialist but it's in constant use at the moment and it drives fine, just smokey.
any advice would be appreciated.
cheers
