:sad-smiley-047:My V70 D5 has started smoking for about 3 minutes when started from cold in the morning - it also seems lumpy and wont pull off until tha engine has warmed up a bit. Once it has been started in the morning it seems perfect for the rest of the day with bags of power and no smoke at all.

the smoke is unburnt fuel smoke - I did replace an intercooler hose 3 months ago as the old one had a split in it and the car has done 95000 miles and has a full service history. The cambelt was changed recently but it was smoking from cold before this was changed.

Any Ideas??

One or more faulty glow plugs is a distinct possibility.
