The exhaust gas control system is provided to improve warm-up and heater performance. This system actuates the exhaust gas control valve VSV, which is attached to the exhaust manifold. It increases the exhaust pressure to increase the exhaust temperature and engine load, in order to improve warm-up and heater performance.
The exhaust gas control system operates when the warm-up switch is ON, and all the conditions listed below have been met.

– The EGR is operating.
– The coolant temperature is below 70°C.
– The ambient temperature is below 5°C.
