Note:
The malfunction "P0327 / 16711" is set if the output voltage of the knock sensor is too low (below 0.2 V) (coolant temperature
over 20 C (68 F)/ engine speed greater than 3500 RPM and engine load greater than 16%). The ignition angle is then
retarded by 12 crankshaft in the knocking areas of the map (engine load greater than 40%).

Notes:

Recognition condition for the malfunction "P0401 / 16785" (mech. valve continuously closed) is a coolant temperature over
72 C (162 F), an open idle switch, a throttle angle less than 42.5 , a vehicle speed between 70 km/h and 105 km/h (44
and 66 mph), an EGR duty cycle greater than 50%, an engine speed between 1500 RPM and 3300 RPM and an engine
load between 23% and 60%. If all these conditions are fulfilled and the EGR temperature signal is less than 50 C (122
F) for longer than 34 sec, the malfunction "P0401 / 16785" is set.
