Pajero Sport Turbo VG + DPF Service — Kepong
A 2018 Pajero Sport 4N16 at 87,000 km came in with noticeable turbo lag below 2,000 RPM and a DPF warning light. OBD confirmed DPF blockage above 85%. The variable geometry vanes were carbon-fouled and sluggish. Work done: turbo off-vehicle cleaning (VG actuator freed and calibrated), DPF chemical cleaning on-vehicle, diesel oil change (5W-30 C3), fuel filter, and air filter. Post-service, turbo response improved significantly and DPF counter reset to healthy levels.
