the warning light actually says air leak? definately sounds like you've got an air inlet problem.. Mines petrol, but im sure black smoke on a diesel is badly burnt diesel?
Start at the filter and work back. Sounds like you either have a blockage, or you're losing air where you need it most (i.e between the turbo and cylinders). Probably the latter if theres actually a warning light to tell you this. Cool idea lol

Hi jb as st says check boost hose but make sure nose clips are good ,they have a habit of stripping threads
