Citroen Jumper 2016: Black smoke, engine light and loss of power - experience with boost pressure system problems wanted

Hi guys, I have a strange problem with my Citroen Jumper diesel engine (built in 2016). Smokes black when accelerating, check engine light is on, loss of power, cranky engine, jerking when accelerating, loud hissing and whistling when accelerating, stuttering at idle and shaking when idling. I suspect there may be a problem with the boost pressure system. Does anyone have any experience with this? How did you get this solved at the garage? Any help would be great!

Good afternoon guys. For now I've fitted a new airflow meter or MAF and a new MAP sensor and the car is still the same, barely any improvement.... I'll keep investigating when I can, I'm short on time..... a question, the turbo on this engine I think is at the back, is there easy access from below? Recommendations? Thanks to everyone A greeting

Check the vacuum lines and the turbocharger control valve for any signs of wear or damage, as these can affect turbo performance and cause the P0299 code. Accessing the turbo from below can be challenging, so ensure the vehicle is safely lifted and supported if you attempt this. If you're unsure, it's best to consult a professional mechanic. Let us know how it goes or if you have more questions.
