focus tdci loss of power

[Pittersuk]

Hi all

I have a problem with my 2003 focus tdci it seems to lose power at 3000rpm then kicj back in again , as well as excess smoke ou the back.

Ive heard it coul dbe the EGR valve but im not sure can anyone help?

yeha mines only in second gear at its worst, the smokes not that bad only when i boot it.

Seriously! I took the egr valve apart last night it was full of sticky black carbon, i cleaned it out a bit. That didnt make any difference though and i had the injectors re calibrated at the weekend that didnt help!

I read somewhere i could be the turbo hose but i have no idea!

My mpg seems to have fallen aswell

mmmm it does need a service, i now have the oil light flickering on and off when i use the accelerator?

This happened a few months ago, and i liffled the oil up and it just keeps happening, seems to happen if i drive the car hard!
