Come on lads play the game with Jimmy ! Cut the Bloody phones calls out, he is trying to earn a living and if your to lazy to watch his excellent videos to find out how to do things that is your problem. He has been so kind to make and put these videos up in the first place. What do you want? Jimmy to hold your hand while you fix your car ?
ye exactly, some Lazy shites out there man ! i remember when at college that 1 student said he would look forward to the day that automation of repairs became as easy as pressing a few buttons on a machine or remote control,then another student quipped ' i would like another machine or remote to press the button for me !!' 🤔
Absolutely this!!! Do these selfish people realise the impact it has when a mechanic is busy working and his phone rings? Or that a mechanic, even as good as Jimmy, would find it difficult to diagnose something over the phone? Let the guy get on with his job FFS !
Nice little video with some really helpful info, thanks for that, and folks this fella's primary concern is to make a living, time is money and we shouldn't abuse someones generosity, especially someone who freely makes instructive videos, I'm no mechanic so I know what it's like to be stuck but 9 times out 10 a half hour spent googling can pay dividends and doesn't impact on someone's valuable time other than your own of course.
Please people who are phoning for guidance hopefully you'll do the right thing and sort Jimmy out for his time . The man needs looking after he's honest hard-working .
Hi Jimmy , again cant thank you enough ! hope people are being respectful of your living and free advice and not ringing you up ! After watching this video thought id let you know i built up the courage to take your advice and attempt DPF clean myself , identified the pre - dpf pipe using a manometer i bought - sprayed k2 cleaner in - let sit for 15 mins - idled for 15 mins - few high revs ( lots of smoke ) then took Hyundai ix35 for a 30 min spin, DPF pressure down , full power and no warning lights :) Job done and all thanks to your videos , thankyou mate really appreciate the time and help you give.
A big thanks to you Jimmy, following your great videos I cleared out the upstream turbo pipe and replaced the perished particulate filter hose on my Renault Scenic 1.5dci, faults cleared and runs great. Keep up the good work.
You're a good man mate. I get it all the time can you just plug this in and tell me the issue ? Etc etc. Then a price is given for me to do the job. And 9/10 times it ends up going to some local fitter repairing on his driveway.
Glad i found this Jimmy it's helped me suss out which is which.. normally i would take my dpf off but i need to do it a bit quicker this time or we won't be going to france
Excellent clear video and answered a lot of questions , considering this is your business hats off to you mate sharing inside info , appreciate it , top man , thankyou.
Thanks very much for this video (and your time taken). I've been trying, and failed, to find the oxygen sensor on my 407 2.0 HDi (different layout from the 1.6 hdi) to inject the foam DPF cleaner and here you are saying that it's best to put in in through the differential pressure sensor! 🙂👍, which is quite accessible on my 2.0 HDi. Now I just need to figure out which of the two pipes it is, hopefully one is fatter than the other 🤞) Thanks again and I hope that you just simply put the phone down on these selfish freeloaders 😁👍
Well done you. Trying to help everyone out there . Yes that's great idea making small videos showing your genuine skill by helping when you can. Not many people out there would bother to do so...thanks for your time..
Nice one Jimmy,message clear as daylight,the pressure line with higher reading is the one you use to inject your dpf cleaner in,got it,not rocket science.another great video from you Jimmy,keep um cummin,I love um. Thank you
Fantastic mate 😀👍 very informative. This will come in very handy specialy on a trip some place where help is not immediately at hand. In addtion to the my mk808bt I will be getting the manometre as well. Really this is a well needed video. Have a good one mate 😀👍
Hi, thanks for all this information, it is very helpful, I want to ask you what to keep in mind to avoid the dpf cleaner go back to engine and damage something?
Is the DFP cleaner fluid sprayed into the high pressure black sensor hose, can the plastic of the black hose become damaged by the spray? Is it harmful to spray the DPF cleaner into the low-pressure (after DPF) hose or will the car clean it out?
Jimmy's vids are an online course themselves... I already have a compressor, I've bought the dpf spraygun, launch fluid, laser vaporizer spanner and thread chaser, just waiting for a problem! Next is laptop for Forscan, or a scan tool?
You ask for examples we'd like videos off. My example is very specific but can take 8 hrs in a workshop to remove replace a LPEGR cooler on a twin egr Ducato (2017-19) pre adblu. The cooler has a "tea strainer" at top end that blocks up before the DPF. It may be accessable via a flexible pipe behind the alternator. Have you had to do such a beast, or do you thinks its feasible? If this feasible i can see it being used as annual or biannual preventative method by those that have suffered.
Very good video help alot My Mercedes cls 350 keep going in limp mode with code 15DF00 The lower limit value of component b28/8 dpf pressure sensor has not been reached Dpf is clean I put new genuine sensor with teach in process But still throwing same code Highly appropriated if you suggest any other part I should check . Thank you
After watching some of your videos it seems not all the EXHAUST PRESSURE SENSORs are faulty when they bring up an error so what % of time would you say it is a pipe problem ( blocked or split)
Hello. I cleaned the particle filter in the kia ceed 1.6crdi from 2013 because it regenerated very often (30-50km). After cleaning, it continues to regenerate at 30-50km. I replaced the differential pressure sensor. No error appears on the diagnosis. I cleaned the intake, the egr valve, the egr gas cooler. If I remove the plug from the flow meter sensor, it goes into limp mode but the dpf doesn't load so fast anymore.What else do I need to check? Could it be a software problem?
Wonder if you could help me out pal. Am completely lost. I bought a 2011 Passat 1.6 tdi cayb b7 and was smoking from dpf area after driving. On checking round the dpf I took off the sensor and checked the pipes. One goes to the dpf and 😮 the other pipe is disconnected and can’t see anything to connect it too. Couldn’t be seen until I got sensor and bracket off. Need to suss out where the hell it’s meant to connect too
is there anyway to see on a differential pressure sensor which is before dpf and which is after dpf??? if i forget which hose goes to which connection on the sensor....
On my van Mk7 transit 2012 I had someone do some jobs on it. A mate it wouldn’t start, he sorted it but ever since it has lost its turbo power struggles with hills etc, he couldn’t sort it but he put his snap on diagnosis on it and it showed I think a fault on dpf pressure valve sensor , would that cause that problem, also there is what looks like a small hose with a sensor or something just hanging about doing nothing so I thought maybe it’s something he hasn’t put back on when moving things but several people including myself are baffled to where it would go. Can’t see anywhere, could I send a email of it to u, maybe u could rule it out or know where it goes. Also to start the van you have to spin it over about 3-4 times before it starts up. Obviously it runs and drives but it’s a nightmare with no power for hills and stuff. Thanks
Good informative video this. Thanks. Has anyone reading this got any knowledge of why my car would be going through dpf sensors fairly regularly? I did it first about 12 months ago, and then again about 6 months ago and it's just gone again. I'm guessing it's too much pressure and has damaged the sensor? But how would that happen? The dpf isn't blocked and my reader shows a very low soot content so I'm unsure why the sensor keeps going. If anyone has any ideas I'd appreciate it. Thanks.
x250 Ducatos had a reputation for killing DPF sensors with condensation in the lines, this went away with X290s and the sensor repositioned. Next time blow out the lines in case of water ingress/ condensation
Am I correct to think that if you have two hose and one is bigger bore than that other, that means bigger one would be before DPF (higher pressure) and the smaller hose will be after DPF (low pressure)?
Does anyone know where the dpf hose on jaguar xf 3.0l 2011 x250 model is had it cleaned a few times pain getting underneath and removing panels would like to try this way pumping cleaner into the hose if it's accessible under the bonnet
You make really good videos the problem is eric o from South main auto channel had the same problem people ringing up non-stop and you drove him up the wall
I have this same car and the same problem but, I may have put the flush in the wrong pipe. It doesn't seem to have caused any issues, however. My obd reader is only showing and egr fault and after doing a flush I had no residue coming out the exhaust? I'm thinking I may have to change the egr instead unless I try flushing the other pipe ? 😅 Anyway obd says it's egr now I'm thinking I may have to just strip it is it a common problem? Egr fault? On the dash it's dpf! But obd says egr? Bloody honda 😂
I had my 2010 idtec chemically cleaned, then the bloke plugged his stuff in and did a forced regen. This was about 2 years ago. All good. He was with me for most of the day and charged about 200. Best money ever spent. Try and find someone local to do the same. Honda wanted stupid money to replace the DPF 😂
Popular TH-cam authors, like Eric at SouthMainAuto, have experienced a serious problem with people from all over the country asking for free advice. He had to set up an answering machine with the message to go away if you're a TH-cam viewer, which leaves a bad taste but is necessary at a working shop. I never understood how some people can be so asinine as to call for free advice, but in the end that's the way it works. You need to put your foot down early and let everybody know of the reality. I'm guessing your channel is about to take off.
Citroen C4 Cactus here....my bloody pressure sensor is stuffed up above the exhaust, in a place with the least access. Can't get in to remove the pipes, so will have to go directly into the DPF. Heyho....
Number of phone calls a get in day just asking for advice is the same as you, around 5 to 10 aday. More at the weekend. People are just trying to save money
And so do you put the fluid in while the engine is running, or when it is off? Thank you. Why would people not make a comment on the video rather than phoning the guy, seems like pure entitlement to think anyone should just stop what they're doing and talk you through something, especially when the person is most likely working trying to put meat on the table for his family.😢

What a gentleman. Thank you for all the tips and wish you well and all the success in the world mate
Great video. 🎉 don’t forgot the basics. Using a small mirror in those tight spots to follow the pipes to the DPF. Can save a lot of mucking about
Thanks for all the videos you've posted, always enjoy them and have learnt a huge amount. Appreciate the time you take to make them all.
Excellent video. Short, sharp and to the point. Thankyou
Cheers 👍🏻

What a brilliant video jimmy very well explained thanks for sharing that information 😊
Very good video straight to the point and simple thank you.

You are a decent guy.. to offer information and help people trying to sort their cars out..
Thanks for these videos! I learnt so much from them. Top honest man!!!
Glad you like them!
Top man, very good knowledge, and good macanic,as well good Teacher. Best wishes my friend.
Thanks 👍
Fantastic, i learn a little with every video, thanks!!
Well done you. Trying to help everyone out there . Yes that's great idea making small videos showing your genuine skill by helping when you can. Not many people out there would bother to do so...thanks for your time..
Nice one Jimmy,message clear as daylight,the pressure line with higher reading is the one you use to inject your dpf cleaner in,got it,not rocket science.another great video from you Jimmy,keep um cummin,I love um. Thank you
Fantastic mate 😀👍 very informative. This will come in very handy specialy on a trip some place where help is not immediately at hand. In addtion to the my mk808bt I will be getting the manometre as well. Really this is a well needed video. Have a good one mate 😀👍
Hi, thanks for all this information, it is very helpful, I want to ask you what to keep in mind to avoid the dpf cleaner go back to engine and damage something?
Thanks very much for your time. Come on guys, if you need Jimmy 's time, compensate him.
Is the DFP cleaner fluid sprayed into the high pressure black sensor hose, can the plastic of the black hose become damaged by the spray? Is it harmful to spray the DPF cleaner into the low-pressure (after DPF) hose or will the car clean it out?
Great video I'm not sure I can add to the compliments that people have been adding.
Cheers Jimmy I give you a call tomorrow lol
There should be courses people can go to about how DPF systems work jimmy so all these machanic s can get educated on DPF s
I think courses vs real life problems are a bit different with the stress and uncertainty... maybe just me lol
Jimmy's vids are an online course themselves... I already have a compressor, I've bought the dpf spraygun, launch fluid, laser vaporizer spanner and thread chaser, just waiting for a problem! Next is laptop for Forscan, or a scan tool?
You ask for examples we'd like videos off. My example is very specific but can take 8 hrs in a workshop to remove replace a LPEGR cooler on a twin egr Ducato (2017-19) pre adblu.

Very good video help alot
My Mercedes cls 350 keep going in limp mode with code 15DF00
The lower limit value of component b28/8 dpf pressure sensor has not been reached
Dpf is clean I put new genuine sensor with teach in process
But still throwing same code
Highly appropriated if you suggest any other part I should check .
Thank you
This leads me to another question. Is it worth doing the clean twice, one before the cat and one after?
Thanks for this and all the other videos, your help is greatly appreciated
My pleasure!
After watching some of your videos it seems not all the EXHAUST PRESSURE SENSORs are faulty when they bring up an error so what % of time would you say it is a pipe problem ( blocked or split)
Can you do a video of a can dpf cleaners vs the professional ones?
Hello. I cleaned the particle filter in the kia ceed 1.6crdi from 2013 because it regenerated very often (30-50km). After cleaning, it continues to regenerate at 30-50km. I replaced the differential pressure sensor. No error appears on the diagnosis. I cleaned the intake, the egr valve, the egr gas cooler. If I remove the plug from the flow meter sensor, it goes into limp mode but the dpf doesn't load so fast anymore.What else do I need to check? Could it be a software problem?
can you do these kind of servuce without any proplem as preventive maintainance
Hi mate, where is the best place to get the hoses and nozzles that i can attach to the dpf fluid bottle? Cheers
Wonder if you could help me out pal. Am completely lost. I bought a 2011 Passat 1.6 tdi cayb b7 and was smoking from dpf area after driving. On checking round the dpf I took off the sensor and checked the pipes. One goes to the dpf and 😮 the other pipe is disconnected and can’t see anything to connect it too. Couldn’t be seen until I got sensor and bracket off. Need to suss out where the hell it’s meant to connect too
Thanks a lot buddy for the confidence and know how
is there anyway to see on a differential pressure sensor which is before dpf and which is after dpf??? if i forget which hose goes to which connection on the sensor....
Which areas do you cover Jimmy?
What if I put cleaner on both the hoses of the pressure sensor ???
On my van Mk7 transit 2012 I had someone do some jobs on it. A mate it wouldn’t start, he sorted it but ever since it has lost its turbo power struggles with hills etc, he couldn’t sort it but he put his snap on diagnosis on it and it showed I think a fault on dpf pressure valve sensor , would that cause that problem, also there is what looks like a small hose with a sensor or something just hanging about doing nothing so I thought maybe it’s something he hasn’t put back on when moving things but several people including myself are baffled to where it would go.

Thanks
In euro 6 engines are NOx sensor (its can stay or better to remove? during the dpf cleaning progress?or other sensor can stay ?
Have you got an equivalent or recommend anyone in the Chester area please Jimmy?
Brilliant and manny thanks 😊
Most DPF sensors have one tube larger diameter than the other. Which one is generally the pre DPF tube? Larger or small diameter?
Larger on is pre dpf
Good informative video this. Thanks. Has anyone reading this got any knowledge of why my car would be going through dpf sensors fairly regularly?

You make really good videos the problem is eric o from South main auto channel had the same problem people ringing up non-stop and you drove him up the wall
Do you cover leicester area?
brilliant video mate thx so much
Glad you enjoyed it
What happen if you clean dpf from the other sensor ? Upstream instead of downstream? Just paid someone watching him doit downstream
Doing it downstream doesn't clean the DPF.
Very good information 👍
Great information thank you sir
Welcome

Thanks, good work 🙂
I have had my dpf flushed to high ash content a couple weeks later dpf light on again honda crv 2013 2.2 im pissed of now

@@ORileysAutos Hay, thank you for taking the time to reply, that's great, really appreciate it.
Lol at people ringing Jimmy up for FREE advice. He’s working trying to make a living . 🫣😠😠😞🤨
