Black smoke coming from exhaust when I accelerate.Particularly bad when accelerating in 4th & 5th gear. Plume of smke from exhaust. The acceleration is also slow probaly due to this problem.I believe this may have been a probel with the Jaguar X TYPE,Any help greatly appreciated.
I had this problem and thought the fuel filter oil filter needed replacing so i have just had a service done but problem is still there but not as bad. been told it could be the AGR valve or a split pipe going to it which recuirculates unused fuel back to burn again. therefore unspent fuel is coming out of the exhaust causing the black smoke. i am still looking for the answer aswell, hope this helps.
X-type 2004 2 litre diesel estate 84K miles - fine until last six months when black smoke appeared on accelerating - jaguar garage replaced air and fuel filter (£156!) even though air filter was only six months old - blamed volcanic ash and then bad diesel fuel !Did not solve problem and taken back in today and now suggest that the Exhaust Gas Recirculating Valve should be replaced at a discounted cost of (£196!) they admit that first attempt did not work but that it is a matter of elimination. Any advice anyone?
same car, same year,same problem.. i looked at the jaguar forum site and found that this is a common problem, advice was to remove the egr valve and clean it, along with the inlet ports. i removed the egr valce and cleaned it today (it was thick with soot) but did not get time to clean the inlet ports. problem still there. a lot of folk have fitted blanking plates to bypass it and are reporting no problems. a few have removed the vacum pipe so the valve stays shut, again with no reported problems. im cleaning ports tomoz and ill let you know how it goes after.

It got a split in the intercooler pipe replace it and no more smoke. It at the front left of the engine attached to the EGR valve and is about 3inch wide
Hi
I think you willfind that there are flaps inside the inlet manifold that work off a motor these sometimes become detached from the linkage. this will give you lack of power and black smoking.
Check the air filter a dirty /blocked air filter will restrict the engines breathing,also when was the diesel fuel filter replaced if its blocked it will give of smoke as well..
Hi i have a Jag Diesel 2004, 85K. i See black smoke when i accelerate in 2nd & 3rd gear.

2 - chnaged the air filter (used a performance filer)
3 - there was split in the hose pipe from intercooler to EGR - replaced that too.
