    1. Engine Control

      Table 1. Intake System
      Symptom and Corresponding Main Fault
      • Lack of power (no black smoke) due to air filter blockage or crushed or leaking air duct

      • Black smoke (no lack of power) due to leakage between the turbo and intake manifold

      Main fault Loss of compression
      Symptoms Rough idle (lack of power always)
      Data List

      Injection Feedback Val


      • When an Injector Feedback Val is more than 3 mm3/st, there may be a malfunction in the corresponding cylinder.

    2. Diesel Injection

      Table 4. Fuel Supply Pump
      Main fault -
      Symptoms Difficult to start, engine stalling, rough idle, lack of power
      Data List

      Common Rail Pressure, Target Common Rail Pressure


      • Common Rail Pressure is within 5000 kPa of Target Common Rail Pressure during idling with the engine warmed up (engine coolant temperature is higher than 70°C (158°F)).

      • If the fuel pressure is 20000 kPa below the target pressure, then a lack of power will be felt.

      • If the fuel pressure is below 25000 kPa, then idling will be rough.

      Tip:

      The fuel pressure changes at engine start, but is approx. 25000 kPa at engine start after the engine is warmed up.

      Diagnostic Trouble Code Even if Common Rail Pressure is below Target Common Rail Pressure, a DTC will not be stored.
      Table 5. Injector Assembly
      Main fault Blockage, increase in fuel injection volume
      Symptoms Rough idle, lack of power, black smoke, white smoke, knocking
      Data List

      Injection Feedback Val


      • When an Injector Feedback Val is more than 3 mm3/st, there may be a malfunction in the corresponding cylinder. This value can be read after idling for 1 minute.

      Tip:
      • When the sliding resistance of the internal parts of the injector assemblies (i.e. armature shaft, command piston and plunger) has increased due to internal contamination, injection quantity will increase at high common rail pressure due to a delay in injector assembly closure.

      • When black smoke occurs due to contamination of the injector assemblies, there are usually other symptoms, such as engine knocking noise at cold idling, rough idling, difficulty starting, etc. which are also present when the common rail pressure is low.

      Main fault Circuit fault: The injector assembly does not open.
      Symptoms Difficult to start, rough idle, lack of power, black smoke, white smoke, knocking
      Data List Same as injector assembly
      Diagnostic Trouble Code When the injector driver has a fault, some DTCs may be stored.

      Data List

      Common Rail Pressure, Target Common Rail Pressure


      • Slowly raise the engine speed from idling to 3000 rpm with the vehicle stopped, and check that Common Rail Pressure follows Target Common Rail Pressure. If the fuel pressure sensor malfunctions, the actual fuel pressure may deviate from the target fuel pressure. (However, the value may not deviate even when a malfunction is present).

      Diagnostic Trouble Code When the fuel pressure sensor has a fault, some DTCs may be stored.

    4. Diesel Throttle

      Table 10. Diesel Throttle System
      Main fault Stuck, does not move smoothly
      Symptoms
      • Stuck closed: Lack of power, difficult to start, rough idle, engine stall, black smoke. These may occur when stuck almost fully closed.

  1. Explanation of Symptom

    Black Smoke

    The fuel used in diesel engines has a higher boiling point and evaporates much slower than that used in gasoline engines. Additionally, the fuel is injected directly, so the air fuel mixture in diesel engines is formed in a very short period of time and is less homogenous. This is why diesel engines must operate with a larger air fuel ratio across the entire operating range. An insufficient quantity of air results in imperfect combustion and increased particulate (soot) emissions.

    When the accelerator pedal is depressed, a large amount of fuel is injected. As a result, the air fuel ratio becomes rich. In this relatively rich environment, fuel droplets lacking in oxygen burn imperfectly producing soot, which is emitted as black smoke. In order to prevent black smoke production, the maximum injection quantity for a given intake air mass is limited (final injection quantity is limited by MAF).

    Black smoke is emitted when either 1) a lack of oxygen is present during combustion, or 2) Too much fuel is injected for a given intake air mass and the air fuel ratio becomes temporarily rich.

    REMOVE DEPOSIT (ELECTRIC EGR CONTROL VALVE ASSEMBLY)


    1. Remove the electric EGR control valve assembly (Click here).

    2. Visually check the electric EGR control valve assembly for deposits. If there are deposits, clean the electric EGR control valve assembly.

      Tip:
      • 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.
