OK I got home today and smelled oil, looked under the hood and their is a poll of diesel laying on the manifold, only code is a P1263 which I understand is one of the glowplugs.

Overall runs well, though does through smoke from the back (3rd cylinder?) when lay on throttle

Advice, its going into the dealer tomorrow and want to know what I should expect so I dont get skinned anymore than they are going to do.
