Tech Tips
Specified values in the following troubleshooting flowchart are for reference only. Variations in the Data List values may occur depending on the measuring conditions or the vehicle's age. Do not judge the vehicle to be normal even when the Data List values indicate a standard level. There are possibly some concealed factors causing the malfunction.
Check that the vehicle has not been modified in any way prior to the vehicle inspection.
This troubleshooting procedure checks for the cause of an obvious lack of engine power while the vehicle is being driven (such as the maximum speed being extremely low).

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
Explanation of Symptom
| Lack of Power | The power of the diesel engine is determined by the quantity of injected fuel and the quantity of intake air. The quantity of injected fuel is determined by the fuel pressure and the amount of time the injector assembly is open. Basically, the fuel pressure is controlled so that it reaches the target fuel pressure. The throttle valve does not restrict air flow volume, so the manifold absolute pressure is almost the same as atmospheric pressure when idling. At more than approximately 1500 rpm, the turbo starts to operate causing the manifold absolute pressure to become higher than atmospheric pressure. The manifold absolute pressure is controlled so that it reaches the Target Booster Pressure when accelerating the vehicle at full throttle. Also, when accelerating the vehicle at full throttle, the throttle is fully open and the EGR valve is fully closed, preserving the mass air flow. |

TAKE SNAPSHOT DURING IDLING AND 4000 RPM (PROCEDURE 2)
Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
Start the engine and turn the tester on.
Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Data List / Lack of power.
With no load after the engine is warmed up, take a snapshot when idling and at 4000 rpm.
Tech Tips
A snapshot can be used to compare vehicle data from the time of the malfunction to normal data and is very useful for troubleshooting.
Graphs can be displayed by transferring the stored snapshot data from the tester to a PC. Intelligent Viewer must be installed on the PC.
The shift lever should be in neutral and the A/C switch and all accessory switches should be off.

TAKE SNAPSHOT DURING LACK OF POWER (PROCEDURE 3)
Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
Start the engine and turn the tester on.
Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Data List / All Data.
Take a snapshot of the following Data List items with the intelligent tester during lack of power.
Tech Tips
A snapshot can be used to compare vehicle data from the time of the malfunction to normal data and is very useful for troubleshooting.
Graphs can be displayed by transferring the stored snapshot data from the tester to a PC. Intelligent Viewer must be installed on the PC.
Move the shift lever to 2nd gear and accelerate the vehicle with the accelerator pedal fully depressed (obey all laws and regulations, and pay attention to traffic conditions while driving the vehicle). Then, check the Data List with the engine warmed up and idling (the shift lever should be in neutral and the A/C switch and all accessory switches should be off).

Tech Tips
Examples of actual malfunctions (See "Diagnostic Help" menu):
Lack of power caused by overly low boost pressure
Lack of power caused by overly low MAF
EGR valve stuck in open position
For engine protection, exhaust gas or fuel economy related reasons, there are some ranges of engine operation where engine power feels like it flattens out, but this is not a malfunction.
The above values were measured under standard atmospheric pressure. The values are influenced by elevation, weather conditions, etc.
Standard atmospheric pressure is 101 kPa. For every 100 m increase in elevation, pressure drops by 1 kPa. This varies by weather.
The engine speed must be 1500 rpm or less before performing the inspection in which the accelerator pedal is fully depressed and the engine is accelerated to a speed of 3000 rpm.
Check for a lack of power during the driving test.

| Result | Proceed to |
|---|---|
| MAP is below 204 kPa at an engine speed of 3000 rpm | A |
| Difference between Fuel Press and Target Common Rail Pressure is 20000 kPa or more | B |
| Except above | C |
Tech Tips
The above values were measured under standard atmospheric pressure. The values are influenced by elevation, weather conditions, etc.
Standard atmospheric pressure is 101 kPa. For every 100 m increase in elevation, pressure drops by 1 kPa. This varies by weather.
The engine speed must be 1500 rpm or less before performing the inspection in which the accelerator pedal is fully depressed and the engine is accelerated to a speed of 3000 rpm.
If the turbocharger movement is not smooth, etc., the value of MAP in the snapshot taken during lack of power will not reach the target value.
When the accelerator pedal is fully depressed and the engine speed is 3000 rpm, the MAP should be higher than 185 kPa.

Check for abnormal disconnections, pipe and hose squashing, and any damage in the intake system.
Using your hand, check whether the pipes and hoses in the intake system are securely connected.
By applying soapy water and revving up the engine, air leaks from the intake system can be checked by checking for bubbles.

Note
When replacing the injector assembly for a cylinder, always be sure to use a new injection pipe.
Follow the procedure in the repair manual and temporarily install the injection pipes and nozzle leakage pipe, and then correctly position the injector assemblies. After that, tighten parts according to the torque specifications.
If the installation procedure is not performed correctly, injector assemblies may become out of position, which may cause the injector assemblies to deteriorate, resulting in malfunctions.
If an injector assembly deteriorates and malfunctions, other problems such as knocking, rough idle, etc. may occur.
If an injector assembly becomes out of position, it is possible that the seal between the injector assembly and injection pipe may become incomplete, resulting in a fuel leak.

READ VALUE USING INTELLIGENT TESTER (MAP AND ATMOSPHERIC PRESSURE)
Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
Turn the ignition switch to ON and turn the tester on.

Tech Tips
If MAP and Atmosphere Pressure have the same value, both are normal. If there is a difference of 8 kPa or more, compare the values to the atmospheric pressure for that day. The sensor whose deviation is the greatest is malfunctioning.

PERFORM ACTIVE TEST USING INTELLIGENT TESTER (ACTIVATE THE EGR VALVE CLOSE)
Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
Enter the engine and warm it up (engine coolant temperature is 70°C (158°F) or higher), and the A/C switch and all accessory switches should be off.
Turn the ignition switch off. Wait for 30 seconds and then restart the engine.
Turn the tester on.
Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Data List / MAF.
Read the MAF value displayed on the tester when engine idling.
Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Active Test / Activate The EGR Valve Close.
Read the MAF value when the EGR valve is closed using the Active Test function.
Tech Tips
If idling continues for 15 minutes or more, the EGR valve target opening angle becomes 0% (EGR valve fully closed). As this makes diagnosis impossible, it becomes necessary to drive the vehicle or to restart the engine.
Before performing the diagnosis, confirm that the EGR valve target opening angle is not 0%.
When "Coolant Temp" is 75°C (167°F) or higher during idling, the exhaust gas flows through the EGR cooler. If MAF does not change when the EGR is cut even though the EGR valve is operating normally, the EGR cooler may be clogged.
When idling while warming up the engine, the actuator operates and the EGR cooler is bypassed. However, if the connector of the VSV for the EGR cooler is disconnected, the EGR cooler is not bypassed and it is possible to check how clogged the EGR cooler is.

Tech Tips
If the EGR valve does not open properly or is stuck closed, the amount of intake air increases and combustion sounds and engine vibration may increase.
If the EGR valve does not operate due to clogging or disconnection of the vacuum hose, repair the hose.
If the EGR valve does not close properly or is stuck open, EGR becomes excessive and combustion becomes unstable. Also, there may be a lack of power. In this case, clean the electric EGR control valve assembly.
When cleaning the electric vacuum regulating valve assembly, use a piece of cloth soaked with non-residue solvent. Spraying the solvent directly onto these parts or soaking the parts in solvent may damage the parts.
