Ok people. I changed my mad sensor and my other oxygen sensor on the pipe. My engine management light was on along with trac control light. Very sluggish upto 2200rpm. Tried disconnecting Battery for 15 minutes. Took it for a drive, used an obd2 to try and delete the code. But nothing. When I start it up white smoke comes out. I have run the engine and disconnected mad but it doesn’t cut engine out. Please help

was the MAF sensor faulty, what was the reason for changing it? You can normally just clean the MAF sensor and the throttle body yearly and thats good enough maintenance

If it smokes white, (more than condensation) it's most likely going to be your head gasket as it burns coolant. Common problem on this diesel.

Only on start up a quick puff of white

white smoke could be coolant leaking into combustion chamber or the car isnt burning the diesel properly.
