Running Rich, smells like a boat engine

Hi,



My Transporter 2.0 TDI 2012 smokes and smells like unburnt diesel.

I've done alot to try to mitigate the problem.
I've changed to new injectors, turbo, egr, intercooler but problem still percist.
New dieselfilter. No water in diesel.

The van doesn't use oil or water.

I filled the tank with 50/50 diesel and kerosene and the smoke and smell went away !
So clearly it is a diesel problem.

Can it be the high pressure pump?
Or a sensor like the fuel temperature sensor or maybe the fuel rail pressure sensor?

The engine is running fine despite this problem.

I have VCDS

Any thoughts?
