Many KTBs (Kriegstagebuch) clearly state that Diesels would smoke heavily at flank speed. Even used to lay smoke screens while evading. Sometimes ships could actually "smell" that uboats where close.
The smoking is confirmed by veterans in this German forum:
uboot-netz.de
(awesome resource for German speakers, with marine personell answering questions, unless classified.)
