Check the operation of the injectors, run test 10 Poor injector operation.
If the fault is still present
Check the conformity of the accelerator pedal position sensor, the brake pedal sensor, the atmospheric pressure
sensor, the exhaust gas recirculation valve, and the damper valve (see Interpretation of statuses and
Interpretation of parameters).
Check the consistency of the signal for the air flowmeter, the engine coolant temperature sensor, the fuel
temperature sensor and the engine speed.
Check the connectors, the continuity, and the absence of interference resistance of the air flowmeter (apply DF056
Air flow sensor circuit), the engine coolant temperature sensor (apply DF001 Coolant temperature circuit), the
fuel temperature sensor (apply DF098 Fuel temperature sensor circuit), and the engine speed (apply DF195
Camshaft sensor - engine speed consistency).
Check:
– That the diesel filter is not clogged.
– That there are no leaks on the high and low pressure diesel circuits: run test 3 Low pressure circuit check.
– The connection of the oil vapour rebreathing circuit.
– The rail pressure regulator (MPROP) (jammed - stuck), apply the interpretation of command AC011 Rail
pressure regulator.
Check the engine timing (and the position of the high pressure pump sprocket). See the procedure in the
Workshop Repair Manual if necessary.
Test the high pressure fuel circuit:
Run the scenario SC035 High pressure fuel circuit fault finding (see Interpretation of commands).
If the fault is still present, contact the techline.

ALP6 External leaks from the fuel circuit
NOTESBefore analysing this customer complaint, check that there are no faults, and the
conformity (or otherwise) of the parameters and statuses, using the diagnostic
tool.
If the customer complaint is not eliminated, perform the following checks.
IMPORTANT
Please observe the cleanliness guidelines and safety advice.
Procedure for checking for an external leak on the fuel circuit:
Clean away traces of grease with clean thinner and wipe the part or parts concerned with cleaning cloths.
Start the engine and increase the engine temperature until the diesel fuel reaches 40/50°C.
Stop the engine and check for traces of grease on the part or parts concerned.
If this is the case, replace the part or parts concerned.
Bleed the fuel circuit and continue the checks.
Does the priming bulb show traces of grease?
(Visual and tactile inspections)
Check the assembly of the components and the
condition of the seal at the union of the two
components, if the leak is at the seal.
Replace the part or the parts concerned.
Bleed the fuel circuit and continue the checks.
Check the counter pressure valve located on the
fuel return line, after the injectors. Does the diesel filter show traces of grease?
(Visual and tactile inspections)
Do the fuel return pipes show traces of grease?

ALP8 Oil leaks from the turbocharger
NOTESBefore analysing this customer complaint, check that there are no faults, and the
conformity (or otherwise) of the parameters and statuses, using the diagnostic
tool.
If the customer complaint is not eliminated, perform the following checks.
Check the area around the turbocharger
Note:
An oil leak does not correspond always to a fault of the turbocharger, the oil leak can arise from the area around
the turbocharger.
Depending on the vehicle type, the best visual access will be either from above or from below.
1. Do not start the engine.
Check the area around the turbocharger and identify the origin of the leaks.
Clean the oil traces on the turbocharger.
2. start the engine and let it warm up for several minutes.
IMPORTANT
If the air filter was previously removed, refit it before starting the engine (risk of aspirating foreign bodies into the
air inlet circuit).
Accelerate with no load several times, progressively increasing the duration before releasing the accelerator pedal.
Visually inspect the exterior condition of the fuel supply pipes and the turbocharger oil return and the area around it.
Identify the origin of the leaks.
Is an oil leak present at the air compressor inlet or outlet?
YESNO

Run test 2 Air line at the turbocharger.

Is the vehicle equipped with a particle filter?
Start the engine and warm it up at idle speed for 10 min.
IMPORTANT
If the air filter was previously removed, refit it before starting the
engine (risk of aspirating foreign bodies into the air inlet circuit).
Perform several rapid and brief accelerations under no load.
Note:
The presence of smoke is often normal.
It is the quantity, density, colour and persistence that are deciding
factors.
Is the exhaust outlet producing abnormal smoke?Perform the fault finding of the

ALP11 Particle filter warning light comes on too often
NOTESThis ALP is specific to Vdiag48.
Before dealing with this customer complaint, check that there are no faults
except DF312 Speed request, and check the conformity (or otherwise) of the
"parameters" and "statuses" using the diagnostic tool. Deal with the other faults
first.
If the customer complaint is not eliminated, perform the following checks.
Have the last 10 regeneration attempts failed?
Is the mileage of PR412 Mileage of last successful
regeneration less than all the parameters of group 2? (PR794
to PR803 Stored regeneration failure no. 1 to no. 10)Is at least one status in group 1
= STATUS4?
Symptom not
confirmed
Are all the regeneration failures linked to engine cut-off?
See parameter ET706 Stored engine status no.1 to ET715
Stored engine status no.10 (E.g. ET706 STOPPED)
Check the exhaust pipe for leaks or blockage. Repair if
necessary.
