Check your crank case filter LLJ500010 located in the rocker cover underneath the air filter, they can block causing crank case pressure and smoke. Try removing the oil filler cap with the engine running, if there’s a lot of back pressure its likely to be this small filter. |

If it is the above filter, replace it with a later BMW vortex one. Never have to change it then….

I can’t remember mate, years since I had my TD6 and garage swapped mine. It’s not the air filter it’s the crankcase breather…. It tends to get missed when servicing and gets blocked. BMW changed it but had sold Land Rover by then.
