You didn't mentione what model of Safri you have. Is it the 3.0L DICOR? Maybe your injectors are getting clogged (bit unlikely) or the ECU needs a remapping.

Try adding System D injector cleaner at the next tankfull. This should also help.

Just 2 days after a smooth performance, its back to black smoke when I try to accelerate a little harder.

Now, to the question: I have driven M800, Zen and Honda City for over 7 years, I have not really changed my driving style after moving to a diesel vehicle - is there any need to change? How different is driving a diesel vehicle to a petrol vehicle??

Thanks!
