The 2003 TD4 failed the MOT today because of the level of smoking. Bluish smoke and the rev pickup is so sluggish. I'll be honest and say I haven't changed the oil in 2 years, but the vehicle has had the EGR blanked off and the crank case breather changed to the BMW one which does not have the replaceable filter so I doubt it is that being blocked.
If you sit at traffic lights and rev the car, the smoke is rather shocking and everyone (quite rightly) stares in disgust.
Car also seems to be much faster first thing when driven cold, as soon as the engine warms the performance seems to drop through the floor.
Any help as to what it could be or what to try would be most welcomed.
Thanks
