It's not had the latest PCM update, but that wouldn't fix smoke on start-up - plus I object to paying for a software update to fix problem with Ford's map. They should do it for free! You wouldn't get a computer manufacturer charging for an update, and it's no different.
It's not got an EGR, so that's not at fault.
It starts on the button every time and drives fine, so I see no reason why the timing should be out. It's mint when it's warm/hot.
It's nothing obvious, I've tried all that. I just wish someone had a clue what could be causing it!
do you get any diesel knock when you start it?
