Has the software been altered to delete the DPF sensors? Could it be trying to regenerate? Thinking it has a blocked DPF.

The smoke was always there, and just as bad. I thought that it was the DPF being clogged that was causing the problem as it only seemed to blast out smoke as the Turbo kicked in, and it felt like it was blowing the DPF clean.
Sadly, that isn't the issue.
