P02D2 Diagnostic Trouble Code

Symptoms
Symptoms of a P02D2 diagnostic trouble code may include:
- Hesitation upon acceleration
- Excessive exhaust leak
- Rich or lean exhaust
- 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

Possible Causes :
- Defective ECU strategies or components will prevent proper regeneration
- The Mass Airflow sensor is a hot wire that senses the volume of air entering the intake manifold. The computer uses this information to control fuel mixture.
- Some aftermarket accessories and performance modifications

Repair Processes :
With the valve disconnected, the red voltmeter lead should be attached to the IMRC valve power wire and the black voltmeter lead connected to ground.

Look at the plug wires to make sure they are not burnt or laying on the exhaust.
