DIAGNOSIS
The vacuum modulator controls the throttle flap in the
throttle body.
Three vacuum modulators are installed in total, while only
two vacuum modulators are installed for D27DT engine
without CDPF. For the D27DTP (POWER UP) engine, only
one vacuum modulator for controlling VGT turbocharger is
installed since the vacuum modulator related to EGR is
deleted.
The vacuum modulator for controlling throttle body reduces
the amount of intake air by reducing the air passage when
the soot is burnt in low load range of engine.

The turbocharger bearing has been changed from normal
pad type to oil pocket type since the exhaust pressure ex-
ceeds the limit (2.5 bar) when CDPF is installed.
For the turbocharger for CDPF, there is a name plate on
the turbocharger indicating “CDPF”.

(oil pocket type)
The ECU operates the vacuum modulator for con-
trolling throttle body to control the amount of air
using the input values from the temperature sen-
sors and differential pressure sensor.
The throttle body is normally open. When the soot
is burnt in CDPF, the engine ECU performs the
post injection and the flap in the throttle body is
closed to decrease the amount of intake air to
the combustion chamber. Therefore, the tem-
perature of exhaust gas is increased and the
combustion temperature (approx. 600°C) is
reached in CDPF.
For more details, refer to the control logic on the
next page.
