Most common problems, symptoms & fixes for the CRTD engine.
Engine CRTD is known for issues such as carbon buildup on intake valves, EGR valve clogging, and turbocharger wear. Diagnosis involves checking for rough idling, loss of power, and increased fuel consumption. Use diagnostic tools to read fault codes related to the EGR system and turbo performance. Prevention includes regular use of high-quality fuel, timely oil changes with manufacturer-recommended oil, and periodic cleaning of the intake system and EGR valve. Solutions often require cleaning or replacing the EGR valve, decarbonizing intake ports, and inspecting or replacing the turbocharger if performance is compromised. Early attention to symptoms helps avoid costly repairs.
