Air Cleaner
A nonwoven, full-fabric type air cleaner filter element is used.
A cyclone pre-cleaner has been provided in the air cleaner case. This cyclone pre-cleaner has a screw shape (turbinated blade) and gathers dusts which has rather big size in a dust cup by swirling the inlet air. The dust cup is removable, so the dust gathered can be disposed.*

Diesel Throttle Body
Two link-less type diesel throttle bodies in which the diesel throttle control motor and the throttle position sensor are integrated are used.
In the diesel throttle control motor, a torque motor (rotary solenoid type) is used to control intake throttle.
A non-contact type throttle position sensor is used in the throttle body.

Intercooler
An air-cooled intercooler is used in order to lower the intake air temperature, improve engine performance, and to realize cleaner exhaust gas emissions. It is located directly on top of the engine.*

EGR Valve
Two linear solenoid type EGR valves are used. Also, a dual-valve mechanism is used to cancel the effects of the exhaust pressure during actuation, in order to realize quick response.
An EGR valve position sensor is provided in the EGR valve. This sensor enables EGR valve control at a higher level of precision by detecting the amount of lift of the EGR valve.

EGR Cooler
A water-cooled type EGR cooler is used. That lowers the exhaust gas temperature to recirculate the great amount of exhaust gas, realizing the reduction of NOx.
In the water-cooled type EGR cooler, water flows the five-layered gas passage to cool down.

Turbocharger
Variable nozzle vane type turbocharger sub-assembly consists primarily of a compressor wheel, turbine wheel, nozzle vane, unison ring, DC motor and nozzle vane position sensor.
This turbocharger sub-assembly has realized great improvements in low-speed torque, maximum output, fuel consumption, and emission reduction. These improvements have been accomplished through variable control of the nozzle vane position, and an optimal velocity of the exhaust gas inflow to the turbine at all times in response to the engine condition.
The ECM outputs a signal to the turbo motor driver, which actuates the DC motor, to control the nozzle vane position.*1

| *3 | Nozzle Vane Position Sensor | *4 | DC Motor |
| *5 | Unison Ring | *6 | Nozzle Vane |
The exhaust gas from the exhaust manifold goes through the nozzle vane inside the turbocharger housing, and flows to the exhaust pipe through the turbine wheel. The speed of the turbine wheel (supercharging pressure) differs depending on the flow velocity of the exhaust gas going through the turbine wheel and the flow velocity of the exhaust gas is controlled by the opening. In such a time like idling, when the exhaust gas is less, the nozzle vane is almost fully closed, but as there is a slight clearance between the vanes, the exhaust gas flows through this clearance to the exhaust pipe. Therefore, there is no bypass.

Exhaust Manifold
On the models compliant with EURO 5 emission regulations, along with the use of the exhaust fuel addition injector assembly, an exhaust manifold pipe is provided to each exhaust manifold. This prevents fuel injected into the exhaust port from entering the EGR control.

Exhaust Pipe
A stainless steel exhaust pipe is used for weight reduction and rust resistance.
2 oxidation catalysts are used on the front exhaust pipe to clean the HC and CO.*1
4 oxidation catalysts are used on the front exhaust pipe to clean the HC and CO. *2
2 oxidation catalysts and 2 Diesel Particulate Filters (DPF) are provided in each front exhaust pipe to capture Particulate Matter (PM).*3
A ball joint is used to join the front exhaust pipe assembly and the center exhaust pipe assembly. As a result, a simple and reliable construction for reducing vibration has been realized.
