Smoking and loss of power
Noticed some smoke in the rear view mirror the other day, and have been watching since.
More smoke, loss of power, and a little hesitation?
Sounds like an EGR/intercooler pipe/injectors problem.
Just been out to have a proper look, opened the bonnet and saw this! Ahhh, that'll be the issue then!!

I was expecting to spend time and not find anything, but that's quite obvious. I was blaming supermarket fuel for the smoking, and filled up yesterday with Shell VPower.Richard

Wrap some Gaffe type tape round it to keep you going temp.It can when others can't,
It will when others won't,
It goes where others don't.

2 bicycle puncture repair patches glued on for air tightness, duct tape for strength, and all wrapped over with black insulating tape.
Probably don't need a new pipe! Richard
