Urgency and Driving Considerations SPN 520373 indicates a malfunction in the Aftertreatment Outlet NOx Sensor, a critical component of the Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) system. While immediate vehicle shutdown is not necessary, prompt attention is crucial. Driving Recommendations: Short-term driving is possible, but prolonged operation may increase emissions and potentially damage the engine. Schedule a

Urgency and Driving Considerations Fault code SPN 105 indicates a problem with the intake manifold temperature sensor circuit. The urgency depends on the specific failure mode indicator (FMI): In our workshop, we've seen SPN 105 faults crop up fairly often, especially on European makes. Just last week, I was diagnosing a Volkswagen Jetta that came

Urgency and Driving Implications SPN 625 is a critical fault code related to Controller Area Network (CAN) communication issues. The urgency of this fault depends on the specific Failure Mode Identifier (FMI) associated with it. In most cases, SPN 625 requires immediate attention and may necessitate stopping the vehicle. In our workshop, we've noticed SPN

Urgency and Severity SPN 111 indicates that the coolant level is below the normal range. The urgency depends on the Failure Mode Identifier (FMI): FMI 1: Coolant level is very low. This is critical – stop driving immediately and check coolant level. Continuing to drive risks severe engine damage from overheating. FMI 18: Coolant level

Urgency and Severity SPN 157 indicates that the fuel rail pressure is lower than the commanded pressure. While it may cause hard starting, low power, or even prevent the engine from starting, in most cases you can continue driving cautiously to a repair shop. However, if the engine is significantly down on power or won't
