Hi clan , i hear your the best in the business on here so thought id ask. got a 2.0d 2008 v50 . it has single throttle body and cant see any signs of a dpf. we did find a dpf pressure sensor lying under a seat though when we bought it.

I had an issue where revs would stutter at 1800 to 2000 rpm, a few ways resolved that, disconnected maf, driving hard or towing. now disconnected egr and blocked it and its fine that way.

But my issue now is, and had it before the egr was blocked off. sometimes and getting worse now, the car doesnt start correctly, no throttle response, heavy black smoke out back, and some smoke from back of the engine, i think below the egr. throttle been cleaned but im told i should shave it a bit so it doesnt / cant stick. any other ideas, thanks
HEllo !
Yes that is typical of the throttle flap you talked about sticking , take the unit off and file around the edge of the flap both sides so that when it is shut you can just see the smallest amount of light through the edges ...
