Vehicle inspection
|
|
|
Hello everyone
cannot pass MOT due to the high level of CO (exhaust). Hyundai Sonata 2013 2.0 turbo.
Changed candles (New, by wine code)
I cleaned the throttle and tank.
Filled in new oil.
Installed a new catalyst ...
3 different diagnostics with computer - no errors at all.
MPG went from 22-23 to 18-19
After all these manipulations, the measurement is still above the permissible norm. I measured the CO several times, and each time the values are very different - from slightly above the norm, to - significantly above the norm. I changed the lambda (first o2 sensor) twice (put both times used ones). On the tablet, during the lambda diagnostics, the values rapidly changed from minus 2-3 to 5. Is this still a lambda?

CO is burned fuel so what you are looking for is an over rich mixture but not related to the ignition system.
First look at the mechanical condition of the engine. Do a complete compression test. Make sure the turbo isn't dumping excessive oil.
After that start looking for ways it can be getting over fueled or over oiled.

No, external leaks would not cause that but I would look a little deeper at the PCV system to determine if crankcase pressure could be causing both issues.

PCV would do it usually a reason hope not plain worn engine? There's supposed to be a vacuum however slight, in "crankcase" if pressure it pushes oils out weak spots like "valve covers" you didn't specify but up top says enough.
Clogged PCV or too much blow-by for it to handle a famous cause and bummer if so,
