Hmmmm? Is it petrol or deisel?

Either way, black smoke always indicate a running rich condition however temporary.

Default black smoke

hello , i have had the mazda 6 2.0 diesel for 6 months was fine until it started to blow out black smoke every time its revved a little hard and is getting worse,

fuel cleaner done
oil change done
fuel filter done
oil filter done

starts smoking at 3,000 revs like its burning oil so is this injectors,turbo or something worse

117000 on clock,serviced regularly doesnt seem to be much power loss either just leaves large puffs of black smoke at the back at idle or when on long drive , go faster>smoke>go even faster = more smoke!

any help appreciated, thank you

Please don't hijack another persons thread no matter how old it is, start a new topic like you just did the Mazda 6 forum, makes it easier for everyone to find the answers they need
