#1: 1.4hdi soot like coming from exhaust Author: SuicideBoi666, Posted: Wed May 22, 2019 12:21 pm ---- Well i own 206sw 1.4hdi changing oil,filters every 10000km car has 288800km with original motor,i noticed when going uphill in second gear there's soot like coming from exhaust its not a black cloud just a blackish smoke,i mostly drive in city sometimes coutryside roads 70-80kmh,i think that it just needs highway speed for like 10mins or so.Should i be worried or i need to get car inspected or im just beeing paranoid about "normal" things.

I'd look at the EGR valve and also maybe try and inspect the catalytic converter. I think this is more of a filter on the hdi. Ours collapsed eventually but I never had the sooty smoke.

It always passed the emissions test on the MOT though so it was never a problem.
As you change your filters regularly you should be OK with it for the MOT.
I always changed the air filter every 5,000 miles too as that is often neglected and a culprit for bad black smoke on diesels.
Fortunately this model of car is not fitted with a DPF filter so under the tighter MOT rules now it is allowed to emit visible smoke as opposed to none being allowed for DPF models.
