Abstract

See full text

In an engine with a supercharger, a low pressure loop EGR apparatus includes a EGR passage to allow part of exhaust gas discharged from a combustion chamber of the engine to an exhaust passage to flow as EGR gas in an intake passage to return to the combustion chamber, and a EGR valve to regulate a flow of EGR gas in the EGR passage. The EGR passage has an inlet connected to the exhaust passage downstream of a turbine and an outlet connected to the intake passage upstream of a compressor. An ECU controls the EGR valve while the engine is in a predetermined operating condition, and determines whether or not the EGR valve is failed based on changes in intake amount in the intake passage during control of the EGR valve.
