LUBRICATION SYSTEM
Lubrication System
Components
Oil Pump
The 3.2L engine uses a variable
displacement oil pump. A conventional
oil pump has a linear output of
pressure based on engine RPM. The
oil pump in the 3.2L has a feedback
line that takes oil pressure from the
ladderframe and feeds it back to
the variable displacement portion of
the pump. At idle the oil pressure is
about 15 psi, as the RPM increases to
2000 the oil pressure will also linearly
increase to 44 psi. The oil pressure
stays at 44 psi for any additional RPM
increase above 2000 RPM.
28
LUBRICATION SYSTEM
Engine Oil Level and Temperature
Sensor
The 3.2L engine is equipped with
a engine oil level and temperature
sensor.
The sensor has 2 parts, a wire used
by the PCM to cycle current through to
determine oil level and a temperature
sensor. Currently only the temperature
sensor is being used for vehicles sold
in North America.
Oil Cooler
The oil cooler is mounted on the left
side of the ladderframe and uses
engine coolant to dissipate heat from
the engine oil.
The coolant and oil are separated by
multiple plates that create passages in
the oil cooler.
After the oil has been cooled, it exits
the oil cooler and travels through the
adapter to the oil filter.

AIR MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
Intake Side
Air is drawn through the air filter, past the Mass Air Flow and Temperature (MAFT) sensor. The MAFT sensor measures
the mass and temperature of the air entering the engine. Next, the air enters the compressor side of the turbocharger.
The air is compressed above atmospheric pressure, causing the air to heat up. The hot, pressurized air is routed through
an air-to-air Charge Air Cooler (CAC) which cools the air charge, increasing power capability of the engine. From the
CAC the air passes the Charge Air Cooler Temperature (CACT) sensor, through the intake throttle body and into the
intake manifold. Inside the intake manifold the air mixes with Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) gases (if the EGR valve
is open), and travels to the cylinder head.
Exhaust Side
Exhaust gases exit the exhaust ports and go through the exhaust manifold. The gasses enter either the turbine side of
the turbo or the EGR cooler.
Gases that go to the turbine side of the turbo spin the turbine wheel inside. The turbine wheel is connected to the
compressor wheel through their common shaft. Exhaust exits the turbine housing and enters the Single Brick System
(SBS). From the SBS the exhaust flows through the SCR then muffler and out the tail pipe.
Gasses going to the EGR cooler will either be directed around (bypass) or through the EGR cooler then directed to the
EGR valve. When the EGR valve is operating gases flow from it to the intake manifold where the exhaust gases are
combined with fresh air.

Turbocharger
The 3.2L uses a Variable Geometry
Turbocharger (VGT) operated with a
PCM-controlled electric actuator. The
turbocharger does not incorporate a
wastegate.
32
AIR MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
Charge Air Cooler (CAC)
The CAC is located in front of the
radiator and below the A/C condenser.
The CAC is an air-to-air heat
exchanger used to reduce the
temperature of the compressed air
from the turbocharger prior to entering
the combustion chambers. Cooler
air is denser (improving volumetric
efficiency), resulting in increased
power.
Intake Manifold
The intake manifold directs
pressurized air from the CAC and
mixes it with exhaust gas from the
EGR for distribution to the cylinder
head.
33
AIR MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
Crankcase Vent Oil Separator
The crankcase vent oil separator is
attached to the right rear of the valve
cover.
The engine crankcase vent oil
separator separates the oil from
crankcase vapors and returns the oil
to the crankcase through the valve
cover. The vapors are routed to the air
tube before the turbo inlet.
34
AIR MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
Glow Plug System
Glow Plug Control Module (GPCM)
The Glow Plug Control Module
(GPCM) is located on the drivers side
under the degas bottle next to the
PCM and TCM. The GPCM provides
battery voltage for the glow plugs, then
modulates the voltage to maintain
temperature. The lower the coolant
temperature, the longer the preheat
time.
Once the engine starts, the glow
plugs enter an afterglow phase. The
afterglow phase helps to improve
idling and reduce hydrocarbon
emissions. The afterglow phase only
operates at engine speeds below 2500
RPM.
Glow Plugs
The glow plugs are mounted in the
cylinder heads and are accessible
Glow Plug when the intake manifold is removed.
The GPCM supplies the required
current to each glow plug, based on
commands from the PCM. Ground is
provided through the glow plug body
to the cylinder head.
35
AIR MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
Variable Geometry Turbocharger (VGT)
Turbocharger control is based off an air system model that produces a desired intake pressure to meet the power
requirements requested by the operator. The PCM commands the turbocharger actuator to achieve the desired intake
pressure to meet the driver’s demands (pedal position, engine load). The air system model considers engine temperature,
air temperature, EGR operation, RPM, and engine load.
Intake Compressors
The turbocharger has a single
compressor wheel and single turbine
wheel on a common shaft.
36
AIR MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
VGT Actuator
The 3.2L VGT actuator uses an
electronic motor to move the vanes on
the exhaust turbine. The VGT actuator
is commanded by the PCM, based on
a desired manifold pressure.
37
NOTES
38
AIR MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR)
The EGR system allows cooled (inert) exhaust gases to re-enter the combustion chamber, which lowers combustion
temperatures and Oxides of Nitrogen (NOx) emissions.
EGR system control is based off an air system model to estimate the percentage of exhaust gases in the cylinder. The
PCM looks at engine temperature, intake pressure, modeled exhaust pressure, RPM, and engine load to determine
the EGR flow rate. The PCM uses the ratio of Manifold Absolute Pressure (MAP) and Exhaust Back Pressure (EP) to
estimate a desired EGR valve position. The desired position is compared to the actual position and the duty cycle is
adjusted to meet that desired position for the required EGR flow rate. If the rate is not achieved with EGR valve position,
the intake throttle valve closes to a desired position, reducing intake manifold pressure. Reducing the intake manifold
pressure increases the pressure ratio allowing more exhaust to fill the intake manifold at a given EGR valve position.
As more exhaust gases are introduced into the intake manifold the amount of air measured by the Mass Air Flow and
Temperature (MAFT) sensor is decreased.
The 3.2L has a cold side EGR valve due to it being after the EGR cooler. Once past the EGR valve, the exhaust gases
are directed to the intake manifold.
The PCM controls the EGR cooler bypass solenoid which turns vacuum on or off to the actuator on the bypass door.
The Exhaust Gas Recirculation Temperature (EGRT) Bank 1 Sensor 2 measures the temperature of the exhaust gases
leaving the system for cooler effectiveness, bypass control and other hardware protection.
39
AIR MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
EGR Valve
The EGR valve receives a duty cycle
signal from the PCM and sends
a variable voltage signal from the
Exhaust Gas Recirculation Valve
Position (EGRVP) sensor back to
the PCM to indicate actual position.
Internally, it has a single valve. When
the EGR valve opens exhaust gases
flow around the valve and to the EGR
valve outlet pipe connected to the
intake manifold.
EGR Cooler
The EGR system uses an EGR cooler
before the EGR valve.
The EGR cooler wraps around the
rear of the engine.
The cooler EGR temperature reduces
NOx emissions.
EGR Flow
Exhaust gases enter the EGR cooler
bypass area where the bypass door
directs the gases through the EGR
cooler or through the bypass. Exiting
the EGR cooler/bypass the gases
enter the EGR valve. If the EGR valve
is open the gases proceed to the
intake manifold for mixing with fresh
air.
40
AIR MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
EGR Cooler EGR Cooler Bypass Valve
Bypass Passage The EGR cooler bypass valve alters
the flow of EGR gases to bypass the
cooler at all engine speeds and low
engine torque. The vacuum controlled
valve is solenoid controlled by the
PCM.
If the PCM determines that it does
not need to cool the exhaust gases,
it commands the Vacuum Solenoid
Valve (VSV) to close the bypass valve
and route the exhaust gases through
EGR Cooler the bypass tube to the EGR valve.

FUEL SYSTEM
The Diesel Delivery Module (DDM) located in the fuel tank contains a turbine electric fuel pump that delivers fuel flow at
low pressure to the fuel filter.
The Fuel Conditioning Module (FCM) contains a fuel filter, water separator, injector back pressure valve, low pressure
switch and a thermal recirculation valve. The fuel filter cleans the fuel and separates water. The fuel filter housing
contains an air bleed on the dirty side of the filter that allows air to escape back to the fuel tank return line. The filter
also houses a bi-metal thermal recirculation valve that allows warm fuel from the engine to enter directly to the dirty side
of the filter to help melt paraffins that can deposit and plug the filter in cold conditions. Filtered fuel will pass through a
fuel pressure switch to make sure proper fuel pressure is being supplied to the high pressure fuel pump and the fuel
vaporizer (exhaust injector) fuel pump. The low pressure switch warns the driver when the fuel pressure falls below a
preset limit which can be caused by a malfunctioning electric pump or restriction in the supply line including a dirty filter.
This protects the engine fuel injection equipment from damage
When fuel reaches the high pressure fuel pump, the Internal Transfer Pump (ITP) ensures the fuel is delivered to the
high pressure pump with a specified mass flow. The fuel temperature is read while the fuel is in (or exiting) the high
pressure pump. The Fuel Volume Control Valve (FVCV) meters the flow of fuel to the fuel rail. A single high pressure
fuel line to the high pressure fuel pump transports fuel to the fuel rail. Individual high pressure fuel lines connect the
fuel rail to the five fuel injectors. At the end of the fuel rail is the fuel rail pressure sensor. The sensor reading is used
by the PCM to adjust the FVCV to meet the fuel pressure demand. Injector return fuel meets with fuel return out of the
high pressure fuel pump and goes back to the fuel filter/water separator. The fuel filter/water separator element housing
contains a pressure valve to generate back pressure for proper injector operation. If the return fuel temperature is
greater than 38˚C (100˚F) then the thermal re-circulating valve sends the fuel through a fuel cooler and back to the tank.
If the fuel is cooler, the thermal recirculating valve supplies return fuel to the fuel filter inlet.
*The 3.2L engine does not use a pressure control valve. The fuel pressure is completely regulated by the FVCV.

amount per stroke is constituted from
a pre-injection amount and a main-
injection amount. This distribution
brings about a soft combustion
operation of the diesel engine.
The use of the Piezo actuators allows
for:
• Extremely quick response times.
• The injection on and off time can be
acutely controlled.
• Repetition is quick and accurate.

FUEL SYSTEM
Injector Non-Injection
The fuel, which comes from the rail
under high pressure, reaches the
control chamber (2) and the high
1 pressure chamber (3) of the injector
4
via the high pressure fuel delivery port
(1). The passageway to the fuel return
5 line (5) is blocked by the mushroom
2 valve (4). High pressure fuel and a
spring keep the mushroom valve
closed. The hydraulic force, exerted
F1 (F1) through the high pressure of the
fuel on the nozzle needle (6) in the
control chamber (2), is greater than
the hydraulic force which is exerted
on the tip of the nozzle (F2), since
the surface of the control piston in the
control chamber is greater than the
surface of the tip of the nozzle. The

EXHAUST SYSTEM
Exhaust gases exit the exhaust ports on the right side of the engine and are directed to the turbine inlet of the
turbocharger and to the EGR Cooler bypass valve. The hot exhaust gas and heat spins the turbine wheel inside the
turbocharger. The turbine wheel spins the compressor wheel via their common shaft. Exhaust exiting the turbine is
directed to the SBS and exhaust system. Some of the exhaust from the exhaust manifold is directed to the EGR cooler
or bypass via the EGR cooler bypass valve. The EGR Cooler bypass valve routes the exhaust gas flow to the EGR
cooler and EGR cooler bypass. The PCM controls the operation of the valve routing the gases through either the EGR
cooler or EGR cooler bypass. After the gases flow through the EGR cooler, the EGR valve controls if the exhaust gas
flow goes through into the intake manifold. The exhaust gas enters the intake manifold and combines with the fresh air.

EXHAUST SYSTEM
Single Brick System (SBS)
On the 3.2L Transit the Diesel
Oxidation Catalyst (DOC) and Diesel
Particulate Filter (DPF) have been
integrated into a single catalyst called
the Single Brick System (SBS). The
SBS is a highly engineered aluminum
titanate that both oxidize hydrocarbons
in the exhaust and captures
particulates.
The DOC oxidizes hydrocarbons in the
exhaust and generates heat for the
SCR and DPF to function properly.
The DPF is a catalyst that traps
particulates, reducing the amount of
black smoke emitted from the tailpipe.
The three modes of DPF regeneration
are active, passive and manual.

The fuel vaporizer system glow plug is
mounted in the aftertreatment system
before the SBS.
Fuel is delivered by the fuel vaporizer
system pump and injected by the fuel

the PCM commands a regeneration.
The fuel increases the exhaust gas
temperature in the SBS to burn off
particulates in the DPF.
Note that the fuel vaporizer system

EXHAUST SYSTEM
The following can be negatively
affected by not using the
recommended API rated engine oil:
• Increased particulate matter in the
aftertreatment system may cause
more ash build up in the SBS
• More frequent DPF regenerations
• Reduction of SBS service life
• Engine oil system
Regeneration Process
As soot gathers in the aftertreatment system, the exhaust begins to become restricted. Regeneration is the process in
which soot is burned off from the inside of the SBS. Regeneration can be commanded by the PCM or the scan tool.
The PCM starts regeneration of the SBS if the soot load exceeds a calibrated value and other conditions such as engine
temp, fuel temp, and in the case of active regeneration vehicle speed are met. The PCM determines the load condition
of the SBS, based on the exhaust gas pressure upstream of the SBS. The DPF pressure sensor provides the pressure
input to the PCM.
This soot can be cleaned by passive, active, or manual regeneration. Manual regeneration is performed using the IDS.
Passive Regeneration
Passive regeneration takes place when exhaust temperatures exceed 300°C (572°F). This process does not affect
engine performance and is transparent to the driver.
Active Regeneration
Active regeneration occurs when exhaust temperatures are insufficient to achieve passive regeneration and the PCM is
indicating the need for regeneration.
The PCM automatically activates the DSI vaporizer, fuel vaporizer to raise exhaust temperature to begin regeneration
while the vehicle is in motion.
Engine performance is not affected by active regeneration, however the engine or exhaust tone may change.
Manual Regeneration
The IDS can be used to perform a manual regeneration of the SBS in the shop and set the ash value under stationary
conditions to clean and calibrate the system. The Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) may illuminate when service or
maintenance of the SBS is necessary.
CAUTION: The manual regeneration of the SBS produces high temperatures in the exhaust system. Due to high exhaust
gas temperatures, always follow the Workshop Manual Cautions, Warnings, and procedures when performing a manual
DPF regeneration.
Frequency of Regeneration
The mileage between regenerations varies significantly, depending on vehicle usage. On vehicles that are rarely are
driven above 24-32 km/h (15-20 mph), the regeneration process can be temporary disabled, so it can be performed at a
different time.
Post Regeneration
After regeneration, the PCM reads the pressure at the DPF pressure sensor and compares it with a calibrated value.
Non-Burnable Ash
Over time a slight amount of non-burnable ash builds up in the SBS which is not removed during the regeneration
process. Ash comes from the fuel, oils and other materials that remain after the DPF regeneration process. The SBS
may need to be removed for ash cleaning and replaced with a new or remanufactured part.
Handle the SBS with care. Dropping the SBS may cause internal damage.
73
EXHAUST SYSTEM
Selective Catalyst Reduction (SCR) System Operation
The SCR system reduces Oxides of Nitrogen (NOx) present in the exhaust stream to Nitrogen (N2) and Water (H2O).
The SCR contains a ceramic catalyst washcoated with copper and iron on a zeolite substrate. At the inlet of the SCR
catalyst is a port for the reductant dosing module, followed by a grate diffuser and a twist mixer. When Diesel Exhaust
Fluid (DEF) is introduced into the system, it finely atomizes in the grate diffuser and mixes evenly with exhaust gases in
the twist mixer. During this time, the heat of the exhaust gases causes the urea to split into Carbon Dioxide (CO2) and
Ammonia (NH3). As the ammonia and NOx pass through the ceramic SCR catalyst, a reduction reaction takes place and
the ammonia and NOx are converted to N2 and H2O.
The engine is able to run leaner and more efficiently because of the ability of the SCR system to eliminate high NOx
levels produced under lean conditions.

EXHAUST SYSTEM
Reductant Dosage Control Module
(RDCM)
The RDCM controls all aspects of the
SCR system. The RDCM monitors the
NOx modules, calculates the amount
of reductant required to reduce NOx
levels in the exhaust stream, and
commands the reductant injector to
provide the calculated amount. The
RDCM also monitors and controls
the reductant pump assembly,
the reductant heaters and sender
assembly. The RDCM communicates
with the NOx sensors and the PCM
over the Controller Area Network
(CAN) circuits.
Reductant Tank
The reductant tank stores the
reductant or DEF. Under normal use
it needs to be refilled at the same
interval as the oil change.

Reductant Dosing Module
The reductant dosing module
is controlled by the RDCM. The
reductant dosing module injects
reductant into the exhaust system to
reduce NOx coming out of the tailpipe.
The injector is made to resist the
corrosive properties of the reductant.
Reductant Pump
The reductant pump supplies Reductant Pump
reductant to the dosing module. One
unique function of the pump is that
when the ignition is turned off, the
pump pulls all the reductant out of the
lines. This prevents damage to the
lines if the reductant was to freeze.
