    Yes, at the dealer they had it up on blocks and tracks off, they checked all rollers, idlers, drive motors etc, then they checked turbo, injectors, injector pump, muffler and air intake. The engine does not blow any smoke!! They think it is a pressure flow problem but have said they cannot find...

    just checked both case drain filters again and they are absolutely mint,so i cleaned them just to make sure and nothing came out,so i just tried it without them in to make sure they were not restricting flow and no change so that rules them out
