The variable swirl valve actuator operates when
turning the ignition switch ON/OFF position to
open/close the swirl valve. In this period, the soot
will be removed and the learning for swirl valve
position is performed.
Swirl: This is the twisted (radial) air flow along the cylinder wall during the intake stroke. This
stabilizes the combustion even in lean air-fuel mixture condition.
Swirl valve
E. Features
Swirl and air intake efficiency
To generate the swirl, the intake port should be serpentine design. This makes the resistance in air
flow. The resistance in air flow in engine high speed decreases the intake efficiency. Eventually, the
engine power is also decreased, Thus, the swirl operation is deactivated in high speed range to
increase the intake efficiency.
Relationship between swirl and EGR
To reduce Nox, it is essential to increase EGR ratio. However, if EGR ratio is too high, the PM also
could be very higher. And, the exhaust gas should be evenly mixed with newly aspired air. Otherwise,
PM and CO are dramatically increased in highly concentrated exhaust gas range and EGR ratio
could not be increased beyond a certain limit. If the swirl valve operates in this moment, the limit of
EGR ratio will be higher. -
-
F. Relationship between swirl and fuel injection pressur
The injector for DI engine uses the multi hole design. For this vehicle, there are 8 holes in injector. If the
swirl is too strong, the injection angles might be overlapped and may cause the increased PM and
insufficient engine power. Also, if the injection pressure is too high during strong swirl, the injection
angles might be overlapped. Therefore, the system may decreases the fuel injection pressure when the
swirl is too strong.

(11) Wide band oxygen sensor control
A. Overview
For diesel engine, combustion is not performed at the optimum (theoretically correct) air-fuel ratio and
the oxygen concentration is thin in most cases. So the wide-band oxygen sensor is used for this kind of
engine, and this sensor is a little different from the one that used for gasoline engine. The combustion in
diesel engine is controlled by fuel injection volume. Therefore, the wide band oxygen sensor should be
used in diesel engine. This sensor measures the air-fuel ratio in very wide range, and is also called full
range oxygen sensor.
The wide band oxygen sensor measures the oxygen density in exhaust gas and sends it to ECU to
control the EGR more precisely. -

D. Operation process
When the differential pressure sensor detects the pressure difference between the front and the rear
side of CDPF, the sensor sends signal indicating the soot is accumulated and the post injection is
performed to raise the temperature of exhaust gas. The amount of fuel injected is determined according
to the temperature of exhaust gas detected by the rear temperature sensor. If the temperature is below
600°C, the amount of fuel injected is increased to raise the tem
perature. If the temperature is over
600°C, the amount of fuel injected is decreased or not controlled. When the engine is running in
low load range, the amount of post injection and the amount of intake air are controlled. It is to raise the
temperature by increasing the amount of fuel while decreasing the amount of intake air.

E. Cautions
Use only specified Engine Oil (approved by MB Sheet 229.51) for CDPF. -
Use only specified engine oil (Low Ash Oil) ▶
The vehicle equipped with CDPF should use specific engine oil to improve the engine performance
and fuel economy, and ensure the service life of CDPF. -
Issue with normal engine oil ▶
Sulfur, one of the contents of engine oil is burned and generates soot that is not regenerated by the
DPF. This remains on the filter as ashes and keeps accumulating. Eventually, this ashes will block
the filter. -
Benefit for specified engine oil ▶
Minimized the sulfur content of engine oil which reduces the service life.
Improved fuel economy and emission level of CO2 with high performance and low viscosity.
Increased service life of engine oil with high resistance to temperature. -
-
-
Problems when using unspecified engine oil ▶
The service life of filter may be reduced by 30% or more by the ashes accumulated on the filter.
The fuel economy may be reduced because of engine rolling resistance, frequent regeneration of
DPF. -
-
These problems are also caused by oil with high sulfur content, such as tax exemption oil and
heating oil, etc. *

1. FUEL SYSTEM SPECIFICATION
Use Only Unleaded Fuel Rated at 89 Octane or Higher ▶
Fuel quality and additives contained in fuel have a significant effect on power output, drivability,
and life of theengine. Fuel with too low an octane number can cause engine knock.
Do Not Use Methanol ▶
Fuels containing methanol (wood alcohol) should not be used in vehicle.
This type of fuel can reduce vehicle performance and damage components of the fuel system.
Vehicle Fueling from Drums or Storage Containers ▶
For safety reasons (particularly when using noncommercial fueling systems) fuel containers,
pumps and hoses must be properly earthed. Static electricity build up can occur under certain
atmospheric and fuel flow conditions if unearthed hoses, particularly plastic, are fitted to the fuel-
dispensing pump.
It is therefore recommended that earthed pumps with integrally earthed hoses be used, and that
storage containers be properly earthed during all noncommercial fueling operations.

1. OVERVIEW OF EXHAUST SYSTEM
When you are inspecting or replacing exhaust system components, make sure there is
adequate clearance from all points on the underbody to avoid possible overheating of the
floor panel and possible damage to the passenger compartment insulation and trim
materials.
Check the complete exhaust system and the nearby body areas and trunk lid for broken,
damaged, missing or mispositioned parts, open seams, holes, loose connections, or other
deterioration which could permit exhaust fumes to seep into the trunk may be an indication of
a problem in one of these areas. Any defects should be corrected immediately. -
2. OVERVIEW OF MUFFLER
Aside from the exhaust manifold connection, the exhaust system uses a flange and seal joint
design rather than a slip joint coupling design with clamp and U-bolts.
If hole, open seams, or any deterioration is discovered upon inspection of the front muffler and
pipe assembly, the complete assembly should be replace, the complete assembly should be
replaced.
The same procedure is applicable to the rear muffler assembly. Heat shields for the front and rear
muffler assembly and catalytic converter protect the vehicle and the environment from the high
temperatures that the exhaust system develops.
3. OVERVIEW OF CATALYTIC CONVERTER
When jacking or lifting the vehicle from the body side rails, be certain that the lift pads do not
contact the catalytic converter, as this could damage the catalytic converter. -
Use of anything other than unleaded fuel will damage the catalyst in the catalytic converter. -
The catalytic converter are emission-control devices added to the exhaust system to
reduce pollutants from the exhaust pipes.
The oxidation catalyst is coated with a catalytic material containing platinum and
palladium, which reduces levels of hydrocarbon (HC) and carbon monoxide (CO) from
the exhaust gas. The three-way catalyst has coatings which contain platinum and
rhodium, which additionally lower the levels of oxides of nitrogen (NOx). ·

1. OVERVIEW
▶DC 5-Speed Automatic Transmission
DCAG 5-speed automatic transmission is an electronically controlled 5-speed transmission with a lockup
clutch in the torque converter. The ratios for the gears are realized by three planetary gear sets. The 5th
gear is designed with a step-up ratio of 0.83 as an overdrive. The selector lever is controlled by
electronically and mechanically. The gears are shifted by the corresponding combination of three
hydraulically actuated multiple-disc brakes, three hydraulically actuated multiple-disc clutches and two
mechanical one-way clutches. This electronically controlled automatic transmission adjusts the operating
pressure to provide proper shifting in relation to engine power. This function improves shifting quality
significantly. And, the driver can select "S" (Standard) mode or "W" (Winter) mode according to the driving
conditions. This automatic transmission provides two gears even during reverse driving. The internal
sensors and controls are connected to TCU by cylindrical 13-pin connector.
DCAG 5-speed automatic transmission offers the following advantages:
Improved shifting quality
More gears
Extended working life and reliability
Reduced fuel consumption 1.
