Hi all,
New member here, with Sprinter 316CDi motorhome.
You have probably heard it all before, but can anyone point me in the right direction of a cure please?
Just recently, our van has been kicking out black smoke on accelleration (and cruise) and seems down on power / torque. It will get up to speed, eventually, but doesnt seem to have the power it used to have.
I dont THINK the turbo has gone (hope?), but am baffled as to the cause.
Unfortunately, the van does get laid up for about 3 or 4 months at a time.
Any ideas folks?
Cheers
Carl
