Most common problems, symptoms & fixes for the ATJ engine.
Engine ATJ is known for reliable performance but can face common issues like EGR valve clogging, turbocharger wear, and injector problems. Diagnosis includes checking for rough idling, loss of power, or excessive smoke. Use a diagnostic scanner to read fault codes. Preventive maintenance involves regular oil changes with quality oil, timely replacement of air and fuel filters, and cleaning the EGR system to avoid carbon buildup. Turbocharger health can be preserved by allowing the engine to idle briefly before shutdown. Injector issues may require professional cleaning or replacement. Addressing these promptly ensures longevity and smooth operation of the ATJ engine.
