At 191,000 km, it's not unusual for the pipe (likely the exhaust or DEF system components) to have accumulated soot and other deposits, especially if it hasn't been cleaned before. The buildup can affect the efficiency of the emissions system over time, even with good maintenance habits...
The Exhaust Gas Temperature (EGT) sensors can indeed get fouled up with soot over time, especially with high mileage like your 258,000 km, which can result in incorrect readings like the 999.9°C spike you saw. Cleaning the sensor as you did is a good, cost-effective solution that can often...
NOx (Nitrogen Oxide) sensors play a crucial role in monitoring and controlling emissions in modern diesel engines, including your EcoDiesel. If they are not functioning properly, the engine control unit (ECU) may not be able to correctly manage the exhaust aftertreatment system, which includes...
Since you replaced the transmission and fuel lines, it’s possible something indirectly related to the braking systems was disconnected or disturbed. Here are a few things you can check:
