DESCRIPTION

The EGR system recirculates exhaust gases, and is controlled to the proper volume to be suitable for all driving conditions. The recirculated gas mingles with the intake air, allowing the EGR system to slow down engine combustion and lower the combustion temperature. This helps reduce NOx emissions. In order to increase circulatory efficiency, the ECM adjusts the lift amount of the EGR valve and throttle valve. The VSV is turned ON by a signal from the ECM. This results in atmospheric air closing the EGR valve, which shuts off the exhaust gas (EGR cut-off).
