Maserati Ghibli
The executive saloon, and the Maserati most likely to be a diesel — which is the fact that changes everything about diagnosing one, because that engine is the VM Motori 3.0 V6 also fitted to the Jeep Grand Cherokee and the Chrysler 300. Its EGR, turbo and particulate-filter patterns are documented under those badges in far more detail than under this one. The petrol V6 is a different world again, built by Ferrari.

Information, not instruction
CarGeek is a reference, not a service manual. Its pages are written from public sources and from what other people have found, never from a manufacturer's own service information, so they can be wrong or incomplete for your particular vehicle. Some of what they describe carries real risk: high voltage, fuel under pressure, stored energy, hot and moving parts.
Have anything you intend to act on checked by a trained person against the manufacturer's own procedure for your vehicle. Nothing here replaces that procedure.

What makes one worth reading:
- The car — make, model, year and engine. The same fault behaves differently on each.
- What you measured, not only what you replaced.
- What actually fixed it — or that nothing did, which is worth knowing too.
