smoking at tickover and in slow traffic

Disco 3 on a 56 plate while stopped on tick over and in slow traffic. car starts to smoke and smell of fuel, OK at normal driving except a little lack of throttle response. have blocked EGR values and no intercooler pipe problems. any ideas?

As above, textbook injector problem or (rarely) a compression issue leading to incorrect injector fuelling. Land Rover - Turning Drivers into Mechanics Since 1948

Does it start fine from cold, or is it still lumpy and Smokey until it warms up? My D3 Build Thread

They are around £220 each IIRC, though you may be able to have your existing ones reconditioned My D3 Build Thread
