Vehicle
Toyota Avensis
The European family saloon and estate, replaced by the Camry in most markets — a fleet car above all, so its population is high-mileage diesel. The 2.0 and 2.2 D-4D are the engines that matter, and the 2.2 in particular carries a documented piston and injector history that produces oil dilution and misfire codes on an engine with no ignition fault. Later cars use BMW-sourced diesels instead, so a 1.6 D-4D is a BMW N47 and wants BMW information rather than Toyota's.

Service information
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.
