Hi, I have a 2.0HDI Expert which was doing the exact same thing as yours, blowing thick black smoke, sluggish and loss of power on gradients, a hissing sound and surging. I replaced the air flow meter but that didn't help. I was told to replace the turbo but a turbo expoert told me not to as it would blow white smoke if it was faulty. I was then told to replace the injectors but a diagnostic test showed them to be functioning fine. I was then told to look at the intercooler which had thick sludge at the lower left pipe. I replaced it today - Sunday 12th July and it is now driving like a new van. It now pulls me up gradients with ease in 4th and 5th instead of having to drop gear to get to the top. I got a replacement from Euro Car Parts for £147 inc VAT. To tell if this is your problem, look through the gaps in the lower section of the bumper at what looks like the radiator and look for sludge over the inside of the bumper and all over the pipe where it joins the back of the radiator (intercooler). Also open the bonnet and look down behind the grille for the same sludge. Hope this sorts it for you. Barry, Newtownards, Northern Ireland.
Please could someone assist me. i have a peugeot expert van 2 litre hdi .however when driving it the van smokes really badly and there is a slight loss in power. also the turbo works intermitently. thanks keith
Hi
If you get surging, it's usually a problem with the injectors......
I have/had the same problem, lots of black smoke and the Peugeot garage couldn't find a fault, new EGR valve, I've been quoted £700 for reconditioned pump and injectors.
Took it to a garage in High Wycombe called PFT Partnership that have the state of the art diagnostics machine, everything fuel wish was ok BUT he heard hissing from the Intercooler and low and be hold there was a large crack in it.....£450 (Including fitting and diagnostics)later and the old van is running fine......fingers crossed......
How do i remove the turbo from a peugoet expert hdi
Hi anyone help, just bought a 2lt hdi expert 03 plate, after its been running for a while if i turn it off it wont start again for 1/2 hour, also its juddering in 2nd as if its mis-firing
cheers
There is a good chance you have a hole in your front rad not the one that holds the water the one that runs iar to your turbo sorry mind gone blank can not think what its called but if you rev your engine tou will hear a blowing noise at the front end don,t try repair it they are about £70
My Peugeot is doing the same thick black smoke when I accelerate in 2nd Gear. If I go through the gears without putting my foot down it is fine. Had a diagnostic test found nothing please help

Hi. I have a 2001 Peugeot Expert 2.0 HDI van. My van started throwing out black smoke, I replaced the Air Sensor (Air Mass Meter) and it seemed to settle down. Now it's worse than ever and I'v also lost power, it will not climb gradients. I have a dignostic code P0930 or P0910 coming up, it tells me that someting is running too high. I'm baffled, any advice would be really appreciated. It starts first time every time from cold, and will run fine. It's just when I start moving and accellerating. Thanks People.
