- This video talks about the reasons why a Diesel Particulate Filter gets blocked and the best available method to get this problem fixed.
TUNAP was the first company to develop and patent a no-removal particulate filter cleaning system. Our technology allows blocked filters to be cleaned without removing them. This saves a large amount of time and will saving £100's in repair bills.

Best advice ever I got from my father, 40+ years experience as diesel engineer working with diesel engines up to 100000bhp :
Use good fuel, proper maintenance oil and filters, every time you drive it get it up to temperature and floor it, burn off residue !!
Also for gasoline, engines are not made to drive around for 5 minutes @ 1600rpm.
I drilled a 4 inch hole in mine. Fixed the problem.
Did the lights come on dash?
Just one hole John 👍
And wht about malfunction lamp after this type of solution
@@enginemitrI was want to ask the same question
I found the best way to fix mine was to buy a petrol car, never had a problem since.
We're forced that way anyway. In some European countries they're already forcing drivers towards electric cars by increasing taxes on fuel cars and decreasing the ones on electric ones.
@@mirola73 They already do so in the UK, why do people think electric is so clean? Why is it so hard to find LPG in the UK?
Its a con!
they're phasing out petrols aswell
I have a 1997 Peugeot 205 1.8 d 44 kW... it never had problems about exhaust. Is It possible that i chose the right car?
Another additional cost to the motorist, just brilliant.
I kind of got that impression after I bought my VW Passat TDI. I have not gotten it out for a long drive often enough, and now I have DPF issue.
@@KR-ki9hw long drives help the DPF issue short drives and turning it on and off make it worse
Thats great but if the dpf has had too much back pressure for too long, be prepared for cracked baffles. In which case the whole unit is screwed.
where can I buy this dpf cleaner in Europe
Where is tuneap centre in Birmingham
Hey guys can clean with sgrassatore manually???
Where can i get someone to particulate my Audi here at Newcastle
Can this work out for diesel trucks too
How much for 2008 BMW 530d M Sport?
Where yous based in the Uk?
does a 2006 prado carry a dpf???
If you have to flush out the filter by blowing hot exhaust fumes through it, then why does it exist in the first place?
this is why you're not a mechanic.
And why must we need to apply DEF? Is it not for the same reason why DEF was implemented?
Who stocks this product in the uk?
What if your def is clogged
I idol a lot being a hotshot trucker. Sometimes it takes as long as 600-700 miles of straight driving until check engine light will go off. I use Sea Foam.
What is Sea Foam? I also have Exhaust Filter Full on my dashboard. It's Ram 3500. Dealership says it will cost me $2300 for parts and labor to fix the problem. I do HotShot as well and other sources say I should drive it on the freeway for 15 to 20 minutes at a constant speed but this has not worked. I don't know what to do now
@@williambadu1628 the dealership is gonna fuck you. Guaranteed. Sea foam, look it up on you tube. There’s a couple of different ways to use it. You got this buddy.... be safe.
@@domaniquemcneal2229 I have the same problem and my 08 Duramax LMM goes into limp mode after 5 min no matter what so I don't get enough time to get the exhaust hot enough to clean the filter. ..will seafoam work even in limp mode?!...
@@Savagewon44 hard to say. I would dump about 5 or 6 bottles of sea foam in your tank, then run it and let the regeneration take place. It definitely needs that regin.
@@williambadu1628 I have the exact same truck with same problem. What did you end up having to do to fix the problem?
Thhhheeeee best way to clean a dp filter is to take a reciprocating saw and cut it clean off. 😂😂😂😂👍👍✌✌
mr.18436572 yeah. All this emissions garbage is a waste of money, and it kills the fuel economy.
@@HateTheIRS So true so true. For the price of a new diesel truck with the dpf nowadays I would seriously consider a low mileage well maintained non dpf truck instead. ✌✌
Just quit buying crap fuel and use a good quality additive before your oil changes and you'll be fine. I'm so sick of people talking about doing deletes. Deletes do more harm then good in modern diesels. These aint 1980's diesels guys. Coking turbos, clogging injectors, blocking up liquid cooled EGRs is just a sign of bad maintenance and not knowing how to keep your rig from spewing out noxious crap. Get real people. Those of you doing deletes and cutting all this stuff off of your trucks are the reason why they put all this crap on there. One more thing to note. You guys may have powerful trucks but they smell like ass. If you have to cut all this stuff off to get power maybe a diesel engine isn't for you.
@@joshtheking1772 fuk off dickhead none of it has any affect whatsoever on the environment its money grabbing bs
@@vevohoeyo "fuck" and "effect". If you educated yourself, you would appreciate that Josh Goode is right.
Looking at your post I'm guessing you're about 14/15?
or where from can I order this dpf cleaner
I guess I am kinda randomly asking but do anyone know a good place to watch new series online?
@Jude Steven flixportal
@Malachi Nikolai Thanks, signed up and it seems like they got a lot of movies there :) Appreciate it!!
@Jude Steven glad I could help xD
Gesmond farrugia all you need to do is get some redex or any engine treatment and put that in the fuel tank and to clean the filter out is drive you car at motorway where you are at in 4th gear to get exhaust red hot to burn the carbon out? You can ask any mechanic about it
How much is the additives to add to the tank every three visits ?
The average cost for the DPF Additive is around £15.99
Shouldn’t the fule companies mix this into there fule?
@@Giggler. too logical 🤣
Additive should be in fuel,the system introduced the dpf system to be compliant with emissions laws
How do I get this product and can you send to Oman
How do you clean it in a ford kuga
I have been told nor use supermarkets fuel have put the additive stuff in over £100 of expensive fuel and iam still losing power
Get the engine fully warmed up and drive from one motorway junction to the next in third gear, at 4000 rpm without going into the red on the rev counter. Check you have sufficient engine oil in the engine before doing this process. Once the engine feels more eager to rev, the dpf should be less clogged with soot. See th-cam.com/video/5KGIOcUmYE0/w-d-xo.html
Is this "Snake Oil"?
Treatments like theese often use some kind of liquid catalyst, organometals, to lower the ignition temperature of the soot particles -so if they are serious it should work. At lest that is how in-fuel cleaners work as far as I know...
Absolutely. Never had any luck with these. If a manual regen doesn’t work, the DPF is cooked, and needs to be replaced.
Tunap ~ Tune up hmmmm
Does this process remove the ash as well?
Problemas no.tanco do gaz
Wouldn't the ask just blow out the exhaust? Oh wait its not a petrol car.............
Where can i get this done

Crazy, you buy a diesel for better economy, to save money at the end of the day. Do you save money ? DPF, EGR problems, more expensive fuel, city charges, the threat of more expensive road tax in future. What’s the point ?
Full throttle for 45km.
Thanks
Nice way to blow up engine too.
Worse advice ever ..
A good long hard drive will help , I'm sure the full throttle bit was a bit of fun 😜
Best analogy for DPF’s is Wheatley being bolted to Gladdos in Portal.
I'm from Texas and I'm not sure this is even English!
aym frome teyxesse aynd ahv neyver played Pordal
@@toddfarrill5783 Ok let me educate you, Portal is a computer game released by Valve in the mid 2000s. It runs on the same game engine as Half Life 2. In Portal 2 there is the robot ball called wheatley that was created to be an idiot, and wheatley managed to take control of the whole scientific facility that created him. Previously in control of the facility was Glados, a clevar but mean robot potato. When wheatley gets control of the facility he manages it poorly and nearly lets the nuclear reactor powering the facility explode. You (the player) manage to get Glados back in control at the very last moment saving the facility and sending wheatley to the moon.
If you have a computer and spear time I highly recommend you give Portal 2 a playthrough, it's fun, challenging and really gets your brain thinking as there are lots of puzzles.
@@toddfarrill5783it’s less of a location thing and more of a hobby thing
Paldies labs video!!!
I got good results with Tunap 989 nozle power wash, much easyer cold start, much less of diesel, the exhaust smell better of good buring , more power from.the engine
I recomand fore the fuel service , lite Toyota do
Petrol fill up? It said that instead of diesel
Sounds like my Audi TDI
i clicked on how to clear the filter, not an ad to something that then needs a agent in the fuel. 😂
No bollox lads what's the bottom line here, my mechanic quoted me 550 euros to fix my DPF , does this Tunap liquid work ??
Best way to clean it is to remove it. It wont break again 100%.
We would not advise the DPF being removed with the new MOT changes in the UK that started on the 20th of May. Now if there are any signs that the DPF has been removed the car will automatically fail its MOT and you will need a brand new one installed.
You won't pass an MOT ever again.
Now imagine everyone does it. Now imagine you and your parents and children inhale this and suffer long term respiratory system damage.
Please set a good example and encourage people to use a filter
@@millanferende6723 Now imagine bigger fuel consumption, shorter engine life span, forced dpf regen that uses even more fuel to burn off trapped particles, truck going into limp mode whilst on job, large repair bills and fuck off!
Just put it back on just before the MOT is due?..wouldnt that solve the problem/.
I bought a 2014 Vauxhall Vivaro Van with low milage for the use of Courier work, taking out a loan to do so, and this DPF thing has been a ROYAL PAIN IN MY ASS every few weeks to a month. I take it in to be sorted with a garage, they clean it out and regen the DPF, costing me £75 a time, a couple of weeks later, bastard warning lights come on again, sometimes with a "STOP" light too, which just stresses me out. Had a chap come and do a thorough clean out of the fuel system and DPF, 6 weeks later, same shit. I can't sell on, I'd be without the van as I use it every day for work (which I also use for band work on weekends) I don't get it, I see these vans used all the time for courier work, is this a thing of my van or are they all like it? At the end of my tether I am!
Run it with archoil d-max fuel addative
@@stevepower6710 Thank you. So is that every tank full or every so many tank fulls?
It's per litre 25litres of fuel add 25ml of 6400 d-max. Also try 2ehn and hybrogen together works for me had no issues with my dpf and only do local trips Go to oilem.com all info on there. Website powerenhancer.co.uk and get 10% off. Maybe worth adding a more aggresive cleaner if you are having problems 1 bottle to 40 litres of diesel should clean it out. Hope it works.
@@stevepower6710 Thank you again. But I was wondering is this every time I fill the tank? I generally put £100 of V-power Diesel in once a week.
@@steevidrums ok have you changed your engine oil ? Make sure you use the right engine oil as this will cause you issues. Also is the engine worn ? Any smoke out the back. ? Injectors can also cause it. Try dipitane this is another addative that has been around for 30 years. Have a look on the internet at it 👍

So what would the cost be to have a DPF cleaned?
Hi Claire, It depends on the vehicle but would normally be anywhere between £200-£350.
Lots of same ones available on the net, you can do this yourself.
Where can i buy this today? Its sunday and i can’t have my truck down on Monday. My truck is my living . Anyone know who sales it ?
Diesels belong on motorways doing long journeys.
no they don't. There are the same amount of diesels as petrols anyway.
@@steve00alt70 for sûre diesel are make for long Journey, are you dumb ?
My van sits on the motorway all day, everyday yet dpf has gone
I've owned it from near new, 200K later doing upto 500+ miles a day
Same thing happened on many other vans, may last a little longer than driving locally but will always clog up by design
The best thing to do is just remove it, once it clogs
@@saifchowdhury5372 how about cleaning it professionally with water? My Yaris DPF does regenerate every 120km no matter how and thinking about cleaning it...
Anyone know if this actually works?

Steve Edwards hi Steve I can confirm this really does work, check out the Facebook page link I posted and contact Jason at Bowden auto services if you would like some further reassurance
Steve Edwards, I would like to know too.
@@katedunno1230 steven Edwards my cars in getting this done, ill let you know tomorrow
A pint of petrol to a tank of diesel does the job.
whats considered short journey's?
Less than 100km a day...
To keep a DPF happy you need to achieve a hot engine temperature and be able to drive continually for 20 mins (no traffic lights) every journey. Anything less than this is classed short journey.
Anything Off the showroom
How do I get it in India ?
You dont
I have this shit in my works Hino truck . If it were my truck, I'd have the stupid thing cut out, a new piece of exhuast pipe welded in its place, and get on with life. This whole unreliable concept is nothing more than a scam/ money grab.
Very true 1,000,000% these new trucks are nothing but a scam
Remove it and throw it in the trash can is the best way to clean it and get better fuel mileage and power, let's go Brandon
That easy? cut or screw off and weld a pipe back in?

Don't buy supermarket fuel.
Buy the expensive fuel it has cleaning additives in it.
There is no such thing as 'Supermarket Fuel' - fuel conforms to the same standards and comes from the same refineries as the branded oil major petrol stations. The fact you have 11 likes on such bs is comedy gold.
00:50 My arteries look the same as this
Go to a garage and get them cleaned then 😂
You need to drink that solution then I stead of pouring into your fuel reserve
🤣😂🤣😂🤣
I use RedEx Diesel and it keeps everything clean. Supermarket diesel is soup.
Lefty green goverment should pay for repairs to the filter, my golf mk5 tdi has not go a dpf , awesome.

@@robseventy5 please explain professor?
What a complete con the dpf filter is, and a lot of hassle .
Remove it with a diesel delete
Just remove it and problem solve😏
Supposed to last the life of the car.. My arse. Have it removed from the cylinder so it looks like its still in there..

Tunap UK the solution is - good quality fuel + a naftalline pill , driving for 50-100 miles in sport mode and the MOT will pass
Yeah glad I’m in the US we can just delete it
@Rick dean i do the same as david and you're welcome
@@ghitaciprian unde bagi naftalina frate? Am probleme cu dpf și nu am bani să-l înlocuiesc.
Don't put in the Garage for a few days, pmsl you have it up on ramps, no one has a ramp !
.
So, the filter is designed to catch carbon so it isn't released into the atmosphere, but the filter clogs up, and needs cleaning, which blows the carbon through the exhaust and.... into the atmosphere.
So, useless. That's called useless.
we must produce filters that do nothing except make us money and produce more product that isn't healthy for the environment at all.
Its a government idea what more needs to be said
Lauls
Or just get redex
Burn the particles in high temperature is a bad idea to get rid off nitrogen. Instead of high temperature treatment, aghast gases or smoke should cool off to pass through regular filtration that means a filter can be replaced periodically when ever it gets dirty. No need machinic or any specialist but current system is just peace of crap and unnecessarily burden on trucking industry which increased truck maintenance and sale out price.
Don’t fuck about I gutted mine and had it welded shut 4 years ago after experiencing regen issues best thing I ever done
But Don’t forget to map out the software
@Cups I have a new car now but still have the Audi and it past it's recent mot in Feb mate
Filters can cost from $5000 to $10,000 for a filter people should you need to replace one, they don’t tell you that.

So frequent short journeys = "unsuitable driving style". Ok. Good excuse for fuck-up car manufacturers I guess.
