Scania DC16 Common Engine Problems

Increased oil consumption

– More often observed on modifications with high mileage or with aggressive operation.

– Causes: wear of oil scraper rings, turbocharging or crankcase ventilation.

 

Leak from under the cylinder head (CH)

– Occurs due to thermal loads, poor-quality cooling circuit or aging of gaskets.

– May be accompanied by a leak of coolant and exhaust gases into the cooling system.

 

Problems with the EGR (exhaust gas recirculation) system

– Coking of the EGR valve or cooler.

– Leads to a drop in power, environmental errors, contamination of the intake.

 

Turbocharger failures

– Due to oil starvation, bearing wear or dirt ingress.

– A typical symptom is a whistle, loss of boost, smoke from the exhaust.

 

Injection system malfunctions (XPI)

– Malfunctions of the unit injectors, high-pressure fuel pump or sensors.

– Possible EDC errors, difficult starting, uneven engine operation.

 

Clogged diesel particulate filter (DPF)

– Especially in urban or short-term modes of operation.

– Regeneration or forced cleaning is required.

 

Wear of belts and tension rollers of attachments

– Noise, vibration, possible breakage and loss of charge/cooling.

 

EDC MS5 / MS6 errors (if any)

– Occur due to problems with sensors, wiring, CAN bus.

 

Overheating due to clogged radiators or thermostat failure

– Especially common in hot climates or with a dirty cooling system.

 

Fuel leaks (tubes, seals)

– Mainly in the area of the ramp or injectors, can cause odor and loss of pressure.
