VW T4 mechanical help?
Posted by Far-Fix364@reddit | askcarguys | View on Reddit | 1 comments
I’m after some advice on a VW T4. My van is a 1.9td engine and when I put my foot down there is no power and black smoke shoots out the exhaust. From what I’ve seen online it looks to be a rich air/fuel mixture, I’ve done the easy things like changing the fuel and air filter but no change. It’s been at a garage for 3 weeks and they’ve not been able to source the issue. Is there anyone who has had this issue before and could possibly advise on what to do?

If the garage can’t figure this out I’d suggest going to a different garage.
They (or you) should be looking for split turbo hoses, clogged PCVs, and dirty/clogged sensors as a start.
Any vehicle engine light? Is this an OBD vehicle or too old?
