Just for clarity I meant the BMW lump not the L series! That post appeared whilst I was replying

And it would also appear I was wrong on the m47 too! Quite a few occurrences in the 3 series it seems, usually when the oil is overfilled.

I've had several Peugeot/Citroen diesels never had a problem, is your diesel C5 DPF clogged, possibly from town driving or could the DPF additive be empty?

One question... What happens if you have an automatic? I take it you will just have to stand on the hard shoulder and wave goodbye to your engine?

Perhaps try snapping the selector into 4th? Or do they only have 1,2 and 3? Failing that, I'd imaging the best course of action to be to block the air intake...

Blocking the intake is your only option really, but it takes a brave person to stand infront o a diesel trying to do 8000rpm

Happened to me on my old mk1 zt when the seals give up on the high pressure pump effectively pumping diesel into the sump. When the sump filled and overcame the pcv system thats when it happened. Damn scary and mine was an auto, stopped it by slamming it through the gears guess I was lucky. New main seal in hp pump and took 14 litres out the sump which only holds 7? All was fine after I literally poured the remaining oil out the intercooler
