Symptoms
Symptoms of a P0062 Mini Ii diagnostic trouble code may include:
- The engine oil will exhibit dilution from the ECUs attempts to increase engine temperature. Some vehicles advance the fuel injection timing slightly after top center to afterburn a small amount of fuel to increase exhaust temperatures. Some of this fuel enters the crankcase. When the ECU determines the necessity to regenerate the DPF, the service life of the oil be shortened significantly
- Faulty or damaged wiring
- Hesitation upon acceleration
- Engine surge
|
Possible Causes :
- Some aftermarket accessories and performance modifications
- A faulty oxygen sensor. This will set a code in itself, however, a faulty oxygen sensor does not automatically condemn the sensor. The code just means that the sensor signal was not within specifications. An air leak or any of the above will cause an erroneous signal. There is a multitude of O2 codes relating to O2 performance which gives a clue to the problematic area.
- Defective ECU strategies or components will prevent proper regeneration

Common Misdiagnoses
- Exhaust Gas Recirculation System Valve 1 Problem
- BBV Sensor Circuit Low Voltage Problem
- Transmission Engaged At High Throttle Angle Problem
- Cruise Inhibit Control Circuit Problem
- TFP Valve Position Switch-Drive Without Drive Ratio Problem
Repair Processes :
Replace the oxygen sensor that is downstream from the catalytic converter on the side of the engine that does not contain cylinder #1. Also, if a oxygen sensor code stating "heater circuit malfunction" the sensor has most probably failed.
Look for missing ground strap or a rusty ground where the fuel tank is grounded to the frame. Check for damage to the wiring harness connector.
Now, clear the codes and test-drive the vehicle to see if the code is reset.
