3. CAUTIONS FOR DI ENGINE
1) Cautions for DI Engine
This chapter describes the cautions for DI engine equipped vehicle. This includes the water
separation from engine, warning lights, symptoms when engine malfunctioning, causes and
actions.
DI Engine 1.
Comparatively conventional diesel engines, DI engine controls the fuel injection and timing
electrically, delivers high power and reduces less emission.
System Safety Mode 2.
When a severe failure has been occurred in a vehicle, the system safety mode is activated to
protect the system. It reduces the driving force, restricts the engine speed (rpm) and stops
engine operation. Refer to "Diagnosis" section in this manual.
Engine CHECK Warning Lamp 3.
The Engine CHECK warning lamp on the instrument cluster comes on when the
fuel or major electronic systems of the engine are not working properly. As a result,

Water Separator Warning Lamp 4.
When the water level inside water separator in fuel filter exceeds a certain level
(approx. 45 cc), this warning light comes on and buzzer sounds.
Also, the driving force of the vehicle decreases (torque reduction). If these
conditions occur, immediately drain the water from fuel filter.

2) Cleanness
(1) Cleanness of DI engine fuel system
Cleanness of DI engine fuel system and service procedures ▶
The fuel system for DI engine consists of transfer (low pressure) line and high pressure line.
Its highest pressure reaches over 1,800 bar.

preciseness.
The pressure regulation and injector operation are done by electric source from engine ECU.
Accordingly, if the internal valve is stuck due to foreign materials, injector remains open.
Even in this case, the HP pump still operates to supply high pressurized fuel. This increases the
pressure to combustion chamber (over 250 bar) and may cause fatal damage to engine.
You can compare the thickness of injector nozzle hole and hair as shown in below figure (left
side). The below figure shows the clearance between internal operating elements.
The core elements of fuel system has very high preciseness that is easily affected by dust or very
small foreign material. Therefore, make sure to keep the preliminary works and job procedures in
next pages. If not, lots of system problems and claims may arise.

Water
separator
(2) Di engine and its expected problems and remedies can be caused by
water in fuel
System supplement against paraffin separation ▶
In case of Diesel fuel, paraffin, one of the elements, can be separated from fuel during winter and
then can stick on the fuel filter blocking fuel flow and causing difficult starting finally. Oil
companies supply summer fuel and winter fuel by differentiating mixing ratio of kerosene and
other elements by region and season. However, above phenomenon can be happened if stations
have poor facilities or sell improper fuel for the season. In case of DI engine, purity of fuel is very
important factor to keep internal preciseness of HP pump and injector.
Accordingly, more dense mesh than conventional fuel filter is used. To prevent fuel filter internal
clogging due to paraffin separation, SYMC is using fuel line that high pressure and temperature
fuel injected by injector returns through fuel filter to have an effect of built-in heater (see fuel
system).
System supplement and remedy against water in fuel ▶
As mentioned above, some gas stations supply fuel with excessive than specified water. In the
conventional IDI engine, excessive water in the fuel only causes dropping engine power or engine
hunting. However, fuel system in the DI engine consists of precise components so water in the
fuel can cause malfunctions of HP pump due to poor lubrication of pump caused by poor coating
film during high speed pumping and bacterization (under long period parking). To prevent
problems can be caused by excessive water in fuel, water separator is installed inside of fuel
filter. When fuel is passing filter, water that has relatively bigger specific gravity is accumulated on
the bottom of the filter.
Water drain from water separator ▶
If water in the separator on the fuel filter exceeds a certain level, it will be supplied to HP pump
with fuel, so the engine ECU turns on warning lamp on the meter cluster and buzzer if water level
is higher than a certain level.
Due to engine layout, a customer cannot easily drain water from fuel filter directly, so if a
customer checks in to change engine oil, be sure to perform water drain from fuel filter.
To separate the water from the fuel filter,
remove the fuel filter assembly first.

1. OVERVIEW
The components in fuel system supply the fuel and generate the high pressure to inject the fuel to
each injector. They are controlled by the engine ECU.
The common rail fuel injection system consists of fuel tank, fuel line, low pressure line which
supplies low pressure fuel to the low pressure pump (including high pressure pump), common rail
which distributes and accumulates the high pressurized fuel from the fuel pump, high pressure
line which connected to the injector, and the engine control unit (ECU) which calculates the
accelerator pedal position and controls the overall performance of vehicle based on the input
signals from various sensors.

2) Fuel System Flow Diagram
The fuel from the fuel tank is supplied to the fuel heater of fuel filter/priming pump and then low
pressure generated by the low pressure pump (built into HP pump) is transmitted to the HP pump.
The fuel pressure at the HP pump is controlled by the IMV valve, and the maximum allowed
pressure is 1,800 bar. The compressed fuel at the fuel pump is delivered to the rail, and injected
by the injectors according to the injection signals. The injection method is the same with the
conventional method; Fuel return by backleak which operates the needle valve.
The major difference is that the fuel return line is connected to the fuel filter inlet port, not the HP
pump venturi.
The pressure from the high pressure pump is increased to 1,800 bar from 1,600 bar, and the
pump is now installed to the cylinder head (cylinder block for previous model). The fuel pressure
is generated by the operation of intake camshaft and gears. The specifications for the IMV valve
and the fuel temperature sensor are not changed.

The engine ECU calculates the accelerator pedal based on the input signals from various sensors,
and controls the overall operation of the vehicle.
The ECU receives the signals from various sensor through data line, and performs effective air-fuel
ratio control based on these signals.
The crankshaft speed (position) sensor measures the engine speed, and the camshaft speed
(position) sensor determines the order of injections, and the ECU detects the amount of the
accelerator pedal depressed (driver's will) by receiving the electrical signals from the accelerator
pedal sensor.
The mass air flow sensor detects the volume of intake air and sends the value to the ECU.
The major function of the ECU is controlling air-fuel ratio to reduce the emission level (EGR valve
control) by detecting instantaneous air flow change with the signals from the mass air flow sensor.
Also, the ECU uses the signals from the coolant temperature & air temperature sensors, booster
pressure sensor, atmospheric pressure sensor to: a) determine injection starting point and set
value for pilot injection, and b) deal with various operations and variable conditions.
