Welcome Erik :)

I think the key to keeping the 2.2 engine in good health is servicing, a minimum of stop/start short journeys & a bit of luck ! Some have been hit hard in the pocket & others nothing at all ......

To be fair mid-2009 (for Avensis) on cars don't seem to have the hg etc. issues. that can afflict a small but noticeable % of the earlier ones.

DPF is now empty, ( no errors, i use a emulator )

EGR is now working anymore ( also no errors ) ( http://www.lexusownersclub.co.uk/forum/topic/66990-blocking-egr-valve/page-4 )

Car was taking 1 liter for every 15km now it is taking 1 liter for every 17km !

And car is running better. Turbo spools better. And i think more power .
