DESCRIPTION
Faults and Symptoms of Common Rail Diesel Components |
Engine Control
Turbocharger SystemMain fault
| Turbocharger sub-assembly (compressor side seal ring, turbine side seal ring, shaft, oil drain)
|
Symptoms
| White smoke Excessive oil consumption
|
Glow SystemMain fault
| Glow system malfunction
|
Symptoms
| Difficult to start, rough idle, knocking, white smoke (when cold)
|
Data List
| Check the glow plug indicator light
|
Diagnostic Point
| Measure the resistance of the glow plug
|
EngineMain fault
| Loss of compression
|
Symptoms
| Rough idle (constant lack of power)
|
Data List
| Engine Speed of Cyl #1 to #8
- When cranking during the "Check the Cylinder Compression" Active Test, if there is a high speed cylinder (approx. 100 rpm more than the other cylinders) that cylinder may lose compression.
Injection Feedback Val #1 to #8
- If Injection Feedback Val #1 to #8 is more than 3 mm3/st, the cylinder may have a fault.
|
Diesel Injection
Injector AssemblyMain fault
| Blockage
|
Symptoms
| Rough idle, lack of power, black smoke, white smoke, knocking
|
Data List
| Injection Feedback Val #1 to #8
- When an Injector Feedback Val is more than 3 mm3/st, there may be a malfunction in the corresponding cylinder. Injection Feedback Val #1 to #8 can be read after idling for 1 minute with the engine warmed up (engine coolant temperature is higher than 75°C (167°F)).
|
- HINT:
- 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.
Injector DriverMain 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.
|
Poor Quality FuelMain fault
| -
|
Symptoms
| Difficult to start, rough idle (especially when cold)
|
Diesel EGR
EGR SystemMain fault
| - Does not move smoothly
- Does not close fully
|
Symptoms
| - Rough Idle
- EGR valve stuck closed: A loud turbocharger sound.
- EGR valve stuck open: Difficult to start (does not stall), black smoke, white smoke (when engine is cold), lack of power, jerking (If there is an excess in the quantity of EGR and there is a heavy load, when the vehicle starts moving, a lack of power will be felt. Also, when racing the engine, there will be some black smoke).
|
Data List
| Actual EGR Valve Pos, Actual EGR Valve Pos #2, Target EGR Valve Pos, Target EGR Valve Pos #2
- Generally, Actual EGR Valve Pos = Target EGR Valve Pos +/-5% (fully closed: 0%, fully open: 100%).
- Using the EGR valve Active Test, check whether Actual EGR Valve Pos follows Target EGR Valve Pos (the engine coolant temperature and intake air temperature should be considered when a malfunction occurs).
- EGR valve is fully closed when the ignition switch is ON (engine stopped).
- EGR valve opens to the halfway point at idling after the engine is warmed up.
- When the EGR valve does not close, MAF (Mass Air Flow) decreases when the vehicle is accelerated at full throttle. MAP also decreases in comparison to Target Booster Pressure. However, there is not a large difference.
EGR Close Lrn. Val., EGR Close Lrn. Status
- When leaving the vehicle idling, the normal range of EGR Close Lrn. Val. is 3.5 to 4.5 V.
- In cases when EGR Close Lrn. Val. is out of the normal range (3.5 to 4.5 V), it is possible that the EGR valve cannot completely close.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
- NOTICE:
- After replacing the ECM, the new ECM requires registration (Click here) and initialization (Click here).
- After replacing a fuel supply pump assembly, the ECM requires initialization (Click here).
- After replacing an injector assembly, the ECM requires registration (Click here).
White Smoke
| When the engine is misfiring, any fuel that has been injected but remains unburned is emitted as white smoke.
|
Turbocharger internal oil leak (Click here) If oil leak occurs from turbine side seal, large amount of white smoke will be emitted from exhaust pipe. Internal oil leak is not visible from outside of turbocharger.
|
1.CONFIRM CONDITIONS PRESENT WHEN WHITE SMOKE APPEARED WITH CUSTOMER |
Ask the customer about the conditions when the white smoke was emitted.
- What were the driving conditions when the white smoke was generated?
- Is the white smoke constantly emitted, or only occasionally?
- Does the white smoke occur only when the vehicle is cold, or when the vehicle is both cold and hot?
- Is the white smoke emitted just after starting the vehicle only, or does it continue while the vehicle is idling?
Determine the symptoms of the problem to narrow down the possible causes.
2.READ OUTPUT DTC (RELATING TO ENGINE) |
Connect the GTS to the DLC3.
Turn the ignition switch to ON and turn the GTS on.
Enter the following menus: Engine and ECT / Trouble Codes.
Read pending DTCs.

Text in Illustration*a
| Example
|
- NOTICE:
- Be sure not to check for white smoke indoors.
- HINT:
- If the white smoke is emitted only just after engine start and disappears later, the smoke is not from the turbocharger.
- If the turbocharger is the cause of the problem, regardless of whether the engine is cold or warmed up, there will be a large amount of white smoke to the extent that visibility is obstructed for a few meters in the area of the smoke (as shown in the illustration).
- Depending on whether there is oil mixed with the fuel, or whether there is unburned fuel present, the smell of the exhaust gas differs. When oil is mixed in, the exhaust gas smells like burning oil.
- When continuously traveling with the engine close to idle for 1 hour or more, such as when in heavy traffic, unburned fuel accumulates in the catalytic converter, and can produce white smoke when accelerating.
