•  Diesel particulate filter clogged
―  Difference in pressure between exhaust gas pressure before and after passing diesel particulate filter is high
―  Soot cannot be removed by compulsory diesel particulate filter regeneration
•  PCM malfunction

Diagnostic Procedure

STEP

INSPECTION

ACTION

1
VERIFY FREEZE FRAME DATA (MODE 2)/SNAPSHOT DATA HAS BEEN RECORDED
•  Has the FREEZE FRAME DATA (Mode 2)/snapshot data been recorded?
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Record the FREEZE FRAME DATA (Mode 2)/snapshot data on the repair order, then go to the next step.
2
VERIFY RELATED SERVICE INFORMATION AVAILABILITY
•  Verify related Service Information availability.
•  Is any related Service Information available?
Yes
Perform repair or diagnosis according to the available Service Information.
•  If the vehicle is not repaired, go to the next step.
No
Go to the next step.
3
VERIFY RELATED PENDING CODE AND/OR DTC
•  Switch the ignition off, then ON (engine off).
•  Perform the Pending Trouble Code Access Procedure and DTC Reading Procedure.
•  Are any other PENDING CODEs and/or DTCs present?
Yes
Go to the applicable PENDING CODE or DTC inspection.
No
Go to the next step.
4
VERIFY PM ACCUMULATION AMOUNT IN DIESEL PARTICULATE FILTER
•  Access the following PIDs using the M-MDS.
―  PM_ACC_DSD
―  PM_GEN
•  Start the engine and race it at 3,000 rpm until the PM_ACC_DSD monitored value stabilizes.
•  Is the PM_ACC_DSD monitored value twice that of the PM_GEN monitored value or more?
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Go to Step 6.
5
INSPECT EXHAUST GAS PRESSURE SENSOR NO.2
•  Inspect the exhaust gas pressure sensor No.2.
•  Is there any malfunction?
Yes
Replace the exhaust gas pressure sensor No.2, then go to Step 12.
No
Go to the next step.
6
VERIFY PM ACCUMULATION AMOUNT IN DIESEL PARTICULATE FILTER AFTER COMPULSORY DIESEL PARTICULATE FILTER REGENERATION
•  Perform the "COMPULSORY DIESEL PARTICULATE FILTER REGENERATION".
•  Access the PM_ACC_DSD PID using the M-MDS.
•  Is the PM_ACC_DSD PID value approx. 0?
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Compulsory diesel particulate filter regeneration is completed:
•  Replace the catalytic converter, then go to Step 12.
7
PERFORM FUEL INJECTOR INJECTION AMOUNT CORRECTION
•  Perform the "FUEL INJECTOR INJECTION AMOUNT CORRECTION".
•  Is the fuel injection amount learning completed?
Yes
Go to Step 9.
No
Verify that the implementation conditions for fuel injection amount learning are met, and re-implement the fuel injection amount learning.
•  Fuel injection amount learning is completed:
―  Go to Step 9.
•  Fuel injection amount learning cannot be implemented:
―  Go to the next step.
8
VERIFY IF FUEL INJECTION PRESSURE MALFUNCTION IS POSSIBLE CAUSE
•  Inspect the supply pump and verify the fuel supply line for clogging.
•  Is the fuel supply line normal?
Yes
Replace the fuel injector, then go to Step 12.
No
Repair or replace the malfunctioning part according to the inspection results, then go to Step 12.
9
VERIFY IF EGR VALVE MALFUNCTION IS AFFECTED
•  Access the following PIDs using the M-MDS.
―  EGRP
―  EGRP_ACT
•  Start the engine, race it at 3,000 rpm, and idle it.
•  Does the monitor value of the PID item EGRP conform to the EGRP_ACT PID value?
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Inspect the EGR valve.
•  If there is any malfunction:
―  Replace the EGR valve, then go to Step 12.
•  If there is no malfunction:
―  Go to the next step.
10
VERIFY IF INTAKE SHUTTER VALVE MALFUNCTION IS AFFECTED
•  Access the following PIDs using the M-MDS.
―  ISV_POS
―  ISV_DSD
•  Start the engine, race it at 3,000 rpm, and idle it.
•  Does the monitor value of the PID item ISV_POS conform to the ISV_DSD PID value?
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Inspect the intake shutter valve.
•  If there is any malfunction:
―  Replace the intake shutter valve, then go to Step 12.
•  If there is no malfunction:
―  Go to the next step.
11
INSPECT TURBOCHARGER
•  Inspect the turbocharger.
•  Is there any malfunction?
Yes
Repair or replace the malfunctioning part according to the inspection results, then go to the next step.
No
Replace the fuel injector, then go to the next step.
12
VERIFY DTC TROUBLESHOOTING COMPLETED
•  Always reconnect all disconnected connectors.
•  Clear the DTC from the PCM memory using the M-MDS.
•  Access the following PIDs using the M-MDS.
―  PM_ACC_DSD
―  PM_GEN
•  Start the engine and race it at 3,000 rpm.
•  Is the PM_ACC_DSD monitored value twice that of the PM_GEN monitored value or more?
Yes
Repeat the inspection from Step 3.
•  If the malfunction recurs, replace the fuel injector.
Go to the next step.
No
Go to the next step.
13
VERIFY AFTER REPAIR PROCEDURE
•  Perform the "AFTER REPAIR PROCEDURE".
•  Are any DTCs present?
Yes
Go to the applicable DTC inspection.
