Its really just a burnout mistaken for a runaway diesel by the internet! You have to make up the facts if there is none provided.

I'm not sure it would pass the smoke test!

It is I suppose another argument for fitting a quality aftermarket sealed intake system, since I doubt that the factory system would enable the engine to be choked.

Not on my VW..... being a diesel it has a tendency to eat its EGR cooler causing excessive bore wear and oil consumption...... be green and replace the engine around 80k miles. Or blank and emulate... Whistle
