Mine does that too. I can only see the fogging of headlights at night. Watch a big rig accelerate, and there is usually lots of black smoke. Same with the Ford, GM and Dodge trucks when they accelerate hard.

I think it's a normal part of owning a diesel, but I could be wrong. I noticed more smoke after replacing the turbo switch over valve and adjusting the IP rack dampener bolt. I figure, if they do not like the smoke, then quit tailgating.

My ALDA has not been touched. It still has the plastic cap on it.
