Not stalking you Jimmy 😂 I’m just on the iPad as usual while the misses watches crap on the tv, got a pop up notification. Hope you’ve had a relaxing Christmas 👍 I got a excellent Scan tool & socks from Sante.

If the driver had info about the dpf on the car media system such as how full the dpf is . 20% 50% 90% , he could take the car on a drive before the yellow drive to clear light comes on. A diagnostic machine can see how full the dpf is , so there is no reason why the car industry could not give this info on the dash . This would solve 99% of issues. Not knowing is the problem . It takes more than 30 miles drive 70mph in 5th gear to get the dpf to 0 % . Many drivers never complete a full dpf registration.
Enjoying your videos all the way from CYPRUS KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK bought my self recently a 2016 Jaguar FPACE 30d. No troubles yet . Any words of wisdom to avoid catastrophic engine failure? Regular oil change every 7k kilometres, use PREMIUM fuel Shell VPower😊
Excellent videos dude one question does cheaper fuel cos this issues? Is there any correlation? Would a full tank of premium diesal now and again be beneficial?
Learned a lot here, thanks for the Vid. Is DPF and sensors blocked a result of not doing a long run!!!! It seems to me, DIY mechanics are buying scan tools to Do DPF regens without knowledge it might be something else.. A question , would it be necessary to clean EGR valve too, or would this clean itself?
I’ve had multiple regen’s, pressure sensor and pipe replaced and a couple of DPF cleans but still have the same issue. Garage is now telling me I need a new DPF… Seems no matter how many times they clear the codes they come back and it is also reporting glowplug sensor issue. After watching your video it seems to me that a new DPF might not be the way to go..
Our Isuzu Dmax kept doing regens to the point that it was trying to do one every time you fricking drove the thing. And the garage tried doing forced regens and lecturing us on "try going on long drives". I ended up finding the fricking problem myself, one of the boost pipe clamps was loose, so i would presume that would cause the regen not to get upto temp because of poor air to fuel mixture. (Weirdly the truck never threw up a over or underboost code and drove ok, but did feel slightly different on power. Something to watch out for on Isuzu Dmax's is oil dilution from diesel, running rich from regen and it washing your pistons and seeps past the rings into the oil. Ours was over an inch higher than max on the dipstick. It's a common problem and Isuzu know about it, their solution.. A shorter dipstick and two max marks, one for when you fill with oil after a service and one after you have driver it and the oil has crept up because of diesel dilution. their solution is pretty comical tbh until someones engine blows up.
If you had a boost leak then the engine would be overfuelling to compensate for the leak, which would cause the DPF to fill up more quickly than normal. Good to hear you fixed it. A good idea is to change the oil after an issue like this due to the oil dilution as you mentioned.
@@ORileysAutos The last time they had it in for a forced regeneration the turbo makes a slight noise now when spooling, so I think it's put wear on the turbo.
Jimmy, 520d e60. New glowplugs and control unit. Dpf been off and cleaned professionally. Now getting diesel in oil. My mechanic reckons its not completing regen cycles and so unburnt fuel is getting dumped into the sump. Fuel pressure ok so doesnt think its injectors or pump seal gone. No other codes for sensors etc cropping up. Any ideas what it could be
I would change both thermostats engine one and egr one my 530d M sport had a similar issue and I noticed my egr thermostat had a tiny crack in it sorry I'm a year late 😅.
@@eddiek821 thanks dude. It was actually just what my mechanic suspected. Unburnt regen diesel dumped in sump. I got dpf/egr delete and car has been perfect for the last year.
I bought a 2014 Audi a6, 2.0 ultra model.. getting an engine management light for the dpf , - trap bank 1 not working efficiently it says.. local garage clears fault for me when trying the Dpf cleaner in the diesel tank but light comes back after two or three weeks. Could this be Dpf sensor ? .. I’m trying not to go down the route of having to take out the dpf for cleaning as I was told this would cost 1000€ + , I’m broke from buying the car, could do without this straight away 😂 thanks
I also have a problem with the dpf filter in the sense that due to the low temperature outside the filter it does not reach a temperature higher than 250 degrees and regeneration cannot be done, I did forced regeneration while driving with the carista and in vain that the ash still does not fall from the deposited filter at this moment I have 27 grams of deposited ash, what can I do in this case?I want to mention that no car error code appears on the tester
Hi we have spent 2 years getting our Citroen relay camper van registered in France following our move from UK. Finally just got registered 😀 Unfortunately 🥲we then had a problem with grey smoke and van went to limp mode. We had the dpf cleaned by our local garage in France and the problem is back after 2 months, still smoke but not in limp mode. We are not sure if to take back to our local french garage that did dpf clean or take to a Citroen garage.
We took back to our local garage in France after it's full dpf clean, new radiator, full service and new tyres 🥲, we then only did 400km and it still lost 4litres of water, so we think there's another problem not just dpf Garage now think it is injectors quoted 1800 euro for 4 injectors replacement and includes diagnosis that its 3 injectors. We wanted to know if injectors are usually checked in a service. . We said is it possible also to check if there is a fault with egr cooler as well first in case there's a bigger issue because it is strange how it lost so much water (although it hasn't overheated as such). Garage replied it doesn't have an egr. He said it's one of three different motor types and this one doesn't have an egr, for our 2014 Citroen relay Ford engine. My husband was fairly sure it does have egr cooler but garage still has vehicle at moment. So we don't know what to do. Our worry is if we pay 1800 euros and it ends up an underlying problem causing injectors. We also asked is there a way of checking if it's the head gasket, garage says no unless they remove the head gasket first which will take 6hours they can't tell there's no test for it? We just want to know if this sounds reasonable/sensible/logical solution. We want to take it for a second opinion but are frightened to drive it in case it does more damage. It does drive at moment but lots of light grey smoke and losing water.
@@CamperVanTango its seems the garage is giving you wrong advice. I'm assuming your engine is a 2.2? Its ludicrous for the garage to suggest this does not have an egr. Also there are various tests fir checking the water leak. The first should be a pressure test and then following a leak down test.

great watching your process man, gives me hope i might actually get the hang of diagnostics some day! another great job fair play 👌
You can do it 💪🏻
A mechanic that knows what they are doing what his doing good mate
Most enjoyable Jimmy!! "Many Thanks"😃👌
Thank you
excellent well diagnosed video that i have an xtrail to do today hopefully should be an easy fix with your guidance videos

Your squirting skills are second to none Jimmy frothy flange-tastic 👍

Another cracking video
Think ur videos are brilliant keep it up what is a good range of pressure after a clean
Nice

Just regular oil changes
Hi will a failed vaporiser in a ford tdci 2.0 with a blocked dpf cause the engine to make oil in the sump ? Ie: derv in the oil? Lots say it can .
Excellent videos dude one question does cheaper fuel cos this issues? Is there any correlation? Would a full tank of premium diesal now and again be beneficial?
Premium diesel would only show a very minor benefit even if used on every tank over 100,000 miles benefits would be hard to see

nice one Jimmy another fix , i take it you had one day off
Yes had Christmas day off
Where are you based how much do you charge for this I’m having problem’s with my mk7 transit 👍
That launch UK just remove soot does it, it doesn't remove it ash does it make one for ash deposits?

Not a transit. It’s a Nissan Juke.

@@LucasVWGolfR I agree, and it's advised to change the oil after a forced regen too.
Not just Isuzu but most cars would behave the same. Annoyingly every customer I see I having 3-4 forced regens and no oil changes 🙄

Yes it does

Is this the version with the egr cooler under the turbo on the drivers side of RHD vehicle? If so they block and it's about 8 hours to get it out
Yeah that’s the one. Is there any way of getting at that Dpf without having to remove the whole front ? Or is this the only way? Thanks
@shane p I haven't had enough of experience on those to remember unfortunately

So if I have a glow plug showing faulty,will it not regenerate the dpf ?
Correct on most vehicles
