Hi Guys,
Spent a lot of time in the garage this weekend!
Bashed up at 160k
The next morning I noticed an oil patch on the drive so took the TIP + EGR off and re seated the oil line, I then started the car forgetting I had taken off the other end!!! TIT

Hey guys,
Thanks for the links.
I have done the N75 test and its not that, it turns on and off fine. So its now down to sticky VNT (likely) EGR being broken / half open, although I'm not convinced that could cause boost spikes.. but defo the black smoke.
