Oil overflow
Hello Torque Authority! I hope that this following message will not offend the hub: I’m struggling with an issue for far too long with both Toyota dealership and 3rd party mechanics, so I’ve figured to drop a question here. I own a 1.4L D-4D 1NDTV Yaris from 2011. I have always used high end diesel, even additional additives and made sure the regeneration occurs (I have enabled the indicator light to show me when it triggers). I end up with P2463 (soot accumulation) I also ended up twice with P252F (oil level over capacity). If I trigger a manual regeneration, the soot goes down to 15%. The first time the oil level went overboard, the following were replaced: gasket EGR cooler, gasket EGR valve, gasket EGR inlet, gasket EGR. The car accelerates normal, the engines runs smooth, the sound of the engine is constant as always. Have you encountered and tackled this before? Thank you in advance, Răzvan

@Alek Bielenda Hey! Thanks for jumping in! That is the default answer I keep on hearing. However, the last trigger happened mid February ( with the anual revision done in January ) while on highway. From a maintenance point of view, OEM oil, always changed on time, with premium diesel and shifting gears at 3k rpm. Even with shorter trips, I have the regeneration indicator active and 90% of the time it finishes the job. I am scheduled on the 3rd of March for an in-depth scan. While the helpdesk said they have an extensive check for my model, I couldn’t get much information about their procedure: The current suspect: - the 2nd DPF unit (I’ve learned today that my model has two DPF units) - the injectors (however the car revs just fine, the average fuel consumption is of 5.2L extraurban… so in my opinion this shouldn’t be the case). - EGR and pipes (should be clean from last time) It feels like I’m going in another circle.

New errors popped up: P252F + P2463 The dealership seems to flick me off, they point at new injectors and new DPF while the car runs smooth, starts smooth… and when the DPF finishes it cycles it cleans down to 15%. I didn’t hear anything on EGT, differential pressure sensor
