Hi there, just wondering if anyone that owns a Ford Focus TDCI LT 2008 has noticed plumes of good old diesel smoke bellowing out the exhaust? ... It starts around the 2500 rpm mark ever so slightly getting progressively worse throughout the rev range around the 3000 to 3500 mark when it is very noticeable particularly at night in the cars headlights behind .... I have owned the car for 3 weeks now brought it through a dealer (X ford exec demo 17,000km on the clock in smicko condition and it had it's 15,000 service when I picked it up) .... don't get me wrong I don't thrash the living christ out of it but at times you need to give it a bit for what ever reason and this is what I get ! ....... I know that diesels tend to chug a bit of smoke but is this normal for a vehicle of it's age and technology I guess is what I am asking?
