If you cannot clear the codes, disconnect the maf sensor, start engine, turn off engine and the connect the maf sensor. Clear codes will then let you start static regeneration
Just go on the highway and keep your car at about 3000 rpm 4-5 gear to match the rpm. I usually go once in a week or 2 weeks on highway and go about 140kmp for about 15 minits and then i can really feel the car having more power and going very well, because you can clough up the car in the city going slow speeds and low rpm.
This would freak me out! I've never done work on a diesel with DPF (all have been without DPF). The fact that it has to peg at such a high RPM would make me nervous. Interesting process.... I have done light studying on these systems, but what I'm unfamiliar with, makes me nervous. Lol Excellent video Luis!
Hi Yes, it can be scary... that's why I always prefer to do it while driving... safer and better for the engine... Unfortunately on this occasion was not possible... Thank you for watching and for your comment Cuba! 👍👍👍
I use Forscan and a bluetooth OBDII device while I'm driving and can see the DPF heat build up to 620'c during dynamic regen!!!! You soon start going meh after a few times LOL
@@markaskew since then, I've done tons of work on DPF and even recently took an ATG training class on the systems, along with how to more accurately diagnose issues throughout the system. Crazy how much I've learned since then, come to think of it.
Before doing the regeneration I would have done a physical inspection of the DPF pressure differential pipes as they crack and perish and collapse. This maybe the reason the readings post regeration were high for a few minutes.
I actually did a visual inspection before start... There is a bit of background story with this car, which I decided not the go through on the video...😉 Thank you for watching!
My pipes were really bad they would literally crumble in your hands, I bought replacements and they were made of silicon so that should cure that problem.

I had the same car, same engine but '06 made focus. I had never had a dpf problem till 200.000km and I sold the car, the engine performed like new. I have some recommendations to the owner; - always buy high quality diesel, like shell v-power - avoid going low revs on long times, use the engine on 1700-2500 rpms daily driving - from time to time, go on a highway and go up to between 3000-3500 rpm on third or fourth gear, drive like this for 10-15 minutes to clean up the exhaust and dpf system.
Just an advice I was working in Ford service. When you regenerate do not start the air condition. By us there was a lot of air conditionig compress which had gone during regenerate
I think the health and safety message about hot exhaust gases, adequate ventilation and all of that should probably warn you that you will be subject to the sound of a diesel sitting at 4k possibly causing depression. If conducted outside of a workshop environment the forced regen may also piss off your neighbours quite badly😆
my mrs had this engine in a mazda , nothing but problems with dpf light coming on , £50 quid to top up dpf fluid then £40 quid for garage to reset the dpf fluid code . Worked fine for a month then dpf codes come back on we took it up motorway in 4th gear and gave it blast out . light went out and everythink fine for few weeks and then happen again. She had a Ford cmax 1.8tdci before and all that had was same problems and costing her money because stupid dpf codes kept coming up . In the end i told her to get rid of the car and buy a petrol engine . Her dads having the same problem with the dpf on his car and he said he NEVER BUY A DIESEL CAR again . I told her now keep away from diesels with dpf on . Nothing but problems and too much and too expensive on them . She had a ford focus 1.6 petrol now for a year and had no problems whats so ever . Every diesel car she had as had nothing but problems with dpf, egr clogging injectors .
I did few static regen on ford by snap on tool and i can say is more gentle vs your tool,revs are only up to 3k and whole process take about 25-30min,you should also check oil level before and after,make sure fuel is at least 1/4,coolant level and alternator belt.Basic things to not allow any mistakes can cause engine failure.
5 mph average speed. That is your DPF problem. Owner should sell this and buy a petrol. The rest of the codes are from a failing gauge cluster. Common on these cars.
LOL A bit exaggerated... and as I already answered a few times, this is was the second regen I did on my drive way in about 10 years... For all matters, it could be my own car... Thank you for watching!

I share your concerns - I've done several succesful static regens using maxi sys but the last one, on a 1.6 tdci Focus, resulted in terminal big ends knocking! Be warned people.
On Ford & Mazda, when the DPF is clogged and you have the Ash Accumulation codes, you have to do an Oil & Filter change prior to a Forced Regen. Big End Knock was due to excessive Diesel Saturation of the Engine Oil. You inadvertently caused the Knock to occur.

@@markaskew yeah I know, so a forced regen needs at first a hard forced heating on cold engine like in the video to regen with damaged piston rings and valve seals 👍🏻
With the differentiel pressures this high after a static regen, the p242f will be back within a week. Its shouldn't be higher than 40 to 50 mbar at 3000 rpm. Does this car have the extra injector before the dpf? Most fords with a p242f have a failed 5th injector in the exhaust.
Possibly... this was done in May last year... and car still going... at least lasted more than a week....😛 If comes back, will have to check... Thank you for watching and for your comment!
And as with ALL China diagnostic machines, read how to regen using the proper VCI to get an idea what the procedure will be. Autel, Launch etc. etc. make you think you have to turn off the ignition when you have to leave it on. When doing anything on a Ford and a 600 second counter appears, leave it running. 600 seconds is 10 minutes which is Ford's favourite timer length. With the readings after you finished this one might be back.
Is it dosing the DPF fluid correctly? On my 1.6 TDCi I found an intermittent reed switch / sensor that detects magnet on the fuel filler flap so was not dosing on each fill up. I would also have added a DPF cleaner into the fuel tank before doing a static regen. My idling pressure is 0.3 and has only ever reached 1.6 on a run. Hopefully it will continue to go down now
I have done only one static on a 2.0 tdci kuga, but it only revved up to 2750 rpm not 4000 like this focus. It went well but it used the entire 10 min. Doesn't t the focus use the Eolys reservoir? Does the autel shows any information about that? All the best!
Some do use it. In those cases, there is an option to select the Module and read the data in regards to fluid levels and there are Actuation & Test Procedures in Special Functions. There is also an option to reset the Counters back to zero.
Never checked... as was no faults for anything else... I don't think these ones have the additive... They use a small injector in the exhaust... Thank you for watching and for your comment!
Hi i have the same problem P242F pressure at idle is about 0kpa and at 3000 rpm is 20kpa which means 200 hPa, according to my experience for 1.6L duratorque the pressure at 3000 RPM should be around 30 hPa which means I have to much pressure (200 hPa). I wanted to do a static regen. I’m not able to delete the fault code P242F so the PCM refusing to enter the regeneration mode how did you delete the fault? Thank for the help.
Try a dynamic regeneration... See if it does it... If the pressure is too high, the car might refuse a regeneration due to safety reasons... In that case replace the DPF, or remove it and clean... 👍👍👍

Hey buddy, does your autel go into Mercedes braking systems? I use Delphi ds150e (Chinese clone) And it doesn’t get into the braking system on Mercedes vehicles. I’m looking at getting a proper system and spending some good money on a system. Which would you recommend?
Done this on a 2014 Focus and the problem just comes back again and again after a couple of months. Just a temp fix. Patch it up, knock the lights off, and get rid.
This one still going... Obviously make sure everything else is good so the car then continues to do the regenerations etc... Thank you for watching and for your comment!
Yeah you could have other issues thats preventing the car from doing regens like low fuel level, bad thermostat etc or the dpf is full of ash which u cant burn off with regens in which case u should get the dpf manually cleaned out or buy a new one cleaning will be cheaper but sometimes they can be melted and damaged beyond cleaning
What do you think about the additives to clean the dpf that reduce the melting point of the particles?. Or perform a decarbonization with machine and hydrogen?.
You should really make sure to preheat the engine up to operating temperature. Do not do as he did in the video as the engine temp was clearly to low. This could very easily create engine damage
you should get some trade plates if you get a car with no mot or tax or what ever as it covers you to drive the car on the road it is a lot of paperwork to recive but its alright paperwork it really depends as i am a driveway mechanic and i have trade plates as i get a lot of cars to repair and need to road test
Elliott Peters tax and insurance as you have to provide a motor trade insurance. It’s really used by garages and car trade if they moving it to one place.
@@s3bby513 I am aware of the requirements to qualify for trade plates.I am just saying that they absolutely do not provide blanket coverage to drive any vehicle, in any condition, on the roads. Their sole purpose is to negate the need to register and tax a roadworthy vehicle whilst it is being moved from place to place, test driven by a potential buyer, or following a repair.. Provided you have valid insurance, it is not necessary to use trade plates to drive to and from a pre-booked MOT test. Nothing can prevent you falling foul of the law if you are driving an unroadworthy vehicle.

I can't remove the fault code so I can't strat regeneration process
I don't understand why people even bother with those silly diagnostics all in 1 tools :D when you have Forscan that is Ford specific and all features just work ;)
Can this be completely removed from the system and just use a normal exhaust system? I'm aware of the legal requirements, but lm sick of technology and want to get back to basics. Air pollution is caused by volcanoes and Chinese and Indian factories America is the worst. Cars play a roll too but for the amount l drive (120 klm per month) I want to bypass this system.
@@LMAutoRepairs How? I have a Ford focus 2009 South Africa build, the engine warning symbol came on then awhile later the engine malfunction light. Called a tow truck ,mechanic said his code reader couldn't communicate with the car, told me to take it to Ford dealership ($240 per hour) Possibly $3000 to fix it, the car is not worth it. Now l just want to get rid of the system and not have a sensor show up a code. So please help if you can I'm an aged disabled pensioner and can't afford the scammers at the dealership. I need my car to get groceries and doctor appointments.
@@LMAutoRepairs If l know what to do l can do it myself, I'm sick of paying out $145 per hour to workshops that take their time and do nothing other than tell you that it needs parts that are more than the car.
Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) is what it says. Diesel engines have particulates which are harmful to the lungs. The filter is designed to capture these particulates and burn them off during a normal regen cycle. The regen cycle tends to happen when the car is driving at a constant, like fast road or motorway. Depending on the car, regen uses either a fifth injector. As corrected by Ian U, ad-blue is used to reduce other emissions! This why modern diesels are not suitable for town driving. If they are not given the time to regen, the DPF will get full causing the issues shown in the video. Here is a Wiki on the subject - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diesel_particulate_filter Some petrol direct injection cars are starting to have particulate filters too - www.autocar.co.uk/car-news/industry/volkswagen-equips-petrol-cars-particulate-filter-technology
@@LMAutoRepairs it depends heavily on usage I guess. I have 2.0tdci that has almost 600 000km's on clock and to my knowledge has original dpf installed. I got error once, but rubber hoses for sensors where fried. But yeah. I most definitely wouldn't buy dpf diesel engined car if I was driving constantly less than 20km rides. I noticed that I usually run car for about 25km's or more when regeneration has triggered automatically. It's really easy to dismiss required stats for it to trigger. If I recall correctly there's engine temp, running time for engine, required speed for specific time and exhaust temperature requirements.

If you can't do it, either there is still a problem with the car, or your tools can't do it...
Thank you for watching!
Are these fitted with Eloys the same as the Peugeot’s ?
No... Don't think they are...
Thank you for watching!
mine has been cleaned, also advise against supermarket fuel. shell esso, gulf are ok, tesco is really bad for them, many have mensioned it to my freind at the garage he works for
Agree... that poor quality fuel does not help!
Thank you for watching and for your comment!
@@LMAutoRepairs people have thought, "take the restriction out, more torque and better fuel econmoy at the risk of a little black smoke
Nice job and good luck....
Thanks!

Hey buddy, does your autel go into Mercedes braking systems?
I use Delphi ds150e (Chinese clone)
And it doesn’t get into the braking system on Mercedes vehicles. I’m looking at getting a proper system and spending some good money on a system.
Which would you recommend?
Yes... the Autel does...
Thank you for watching!
LM Auto Repairs thank you for the reply! What model is it? Cheers for the videos! Helps us tinkerers out!

Hi..Dynamic regeneration never herd of this...take it you drive car on motorway and force the same process as static
Yes... that the one...
Thank you for watching!
The ash accumulation not solved with a regeneration, must remove the dpf and clean it....
Yes... that's correct!
Thank you for watching and for your comment!
Done this on a 2014 Focus and the problem just comes back again and again after a couple of months. Just a temp fix. Patch it up, knock the lights off, and get rid.
This one still going...
Obviously make sure everything else is good so the car then continues to do the regenerations etc...
Thank you for watching and for your comment!
Yeah you could have other issues thats preventing the car from doing regens like low fuel level, bad thermostat etc or the dpf is full of ash which u cant burn off with regens in which case u should get the dpf manually cleaned out or buy a new one cleaning will be cheaper but sometimes they can be melted and damaged beyond cleaning
What do you think about the additives to clean the dpf that reduce the melting point of the particles?. Or perform a decarbonization with machine and hydrogen?.
Personally, I never used those additives, nor have used those machines or that service....
Thank you for watching!
@@LMAutoRepairs thanks
Imo additives are generally speaking the best snake oil's sold.
@@jothain
Agree!
👍
What macias r u use I
You should really make sure to preheat the engine up to operating temperature. Do not do as he did in the video as the engine temp was clearly to low. This could very easily create engine damage
Again, that's why the regen never started until the engine was up to the necessary temp...
Thank you for watching and for your comment!
Can I ask what Autel do you use ?
MS908P...
Thank you for watching!
We need to more videos on forscan please
I think I have more coming, where I used Froscan...
👍👍👍
Is the regeneration needed even if you always run clean engine oil?
Yes...
Thank you for watching!
you should get some trade plates if you get a car with no mot or tax or what ever as it covers you to drive the car on the road it is a lot of paperwork to recive but its alright paperwork
it really depends as i am a driveway mechanic and i have trade plates as i get a lot of cars to repair and need to road test
What is the "whatever"? As far as I am aware, trade plates are a portable tax disc and nothing more.
Elliott Peters tax and insurance as you have to provide a motor trade insurance. It’s really used by garages and car trade if they moving it to one place.
@@s3bby513 I am aware of the requirements to qualify for trade plates.I am just saying that they absolutely do not provide blanket coverage to drive any vehicle, in any condition, on the roads. Their sole purpose is to negate the need to register and tax a roadworthy vehicle whilst it is being moved from place to place, test driven by a potential buyer, or following a repair.. Provided you have valid insurance, it is not necessary to use trade plates to drive to and from a pre-booked MOT test. Nothing can prevent you falling foul of the law if you are driving an unroadworthy vehicle.
hello good afternoon, what is your diagnostic machine ??? Autel? model ?? thank you !
Hi
Autel MS908P...
Thank you for watching!
Hello friend, are you an Autel representative? I am looking for a diagnostic machine which model do you advise? Autel MK808BT is a good choice? thank you very much
@@nccarvalho7887
Depends what you want it for...
But is a good choice.
Check their website, and compare the different models... Will help you making a decision...
No, I am not an Autel representative.
I can't remove the fault code so I can't strat regeneration process
Matyas if u disconnect the maf sensor a couple of times and clear the maf codes it will let u clear the dpf codes
Super film. Pozdrawiam
Thanks!
👍👍👍
Akurat o dpf to chyba grupa vag jest lepsza..mozesz na androidzie uzywac apki vagdpf zeby wiedziec kiedy sie chce wypalic.;)
Thanks for video 👍
Thanks!

Hi love your video , can you please do a video on dynamic regeneration thanks
👍👍👍
Did you just use a generic scan tool to run the regen?
Autel MS908P...
Thank you for watching!
You can buy Autel Ap 200 , it's a little obd tool from autel that have nearly everything and it's free for 1 make.
You are turning on the front heater instead of the back windshield.
Either is an electric load...😉
Thank you for watching!
Thanks for sharing Bro👍 very valuable information, especially for me, what are the ideal pressure readings on a known good dpf
&
You're awesome😎
I bet your neighbours love you 😂😂
They do... I fix everything for them!
😛Lol
👍👍👍👍
I think you could do with some 'trade plates'
I know...😉
Thanks!
DONT TRY THIS. If DPF is blocked, it can severely damage something under the hood. It happened to me and it will happen to you
If it is severely blocked yes...
👍👍👍
Top man
😊
Thanks!
👍👍👍
👍
I'm glad I don't live near you having people's cars revving like that in the street....
Lol
Was this one in many years...
I usually do it while driving...
Was this one that had no road tax...
Thank you for watching!
Once in a blue moon won't hurt
In my citi, 30 workshop never is regeneration finished. Ford 80 kw. 1 is burning. This is video.
I don't understand why people even bother with those silly diagnostics all in 1 tools :D when you have Forscan that is Ford specific and all features just work ;)
If you only work on ford's yes... make sense...
Try to scan a BMW with the forscan tool...🙄
Thank you for watching and for your comment!
What was that about the codes 9:30 ??
The codes in the ecu that tou see at the start of the video... you need to clear them before starting the regen...
Thank you for watching!
👍👍👍
Seriously dont try this if your DPF is blocked. It can damage engine or one of many other things
If it is heavily clogged yes, it is risky...
👍👍👍
Can this be completely removed from the system and just use a normal exhaust system?
I'm aware of the legal requirements, but lm sick of technology and want to get back to basics.
Air pollution is caused by volcanoes and Chinese and Indian factories America is the worst.
Cars play a roll too but for the amount l drive (120 klm per month)
I want to bypass this system.
LOL
I agree to a degree...
Governments are focused on the small stones, and ignoring the big ones...
That said, yes, it is possible...
👍👍👍
@@LMAutoRepairs
How?
I have a Ford focus 2009 South Africa build, the engine warning symbol came on then awhile later the engine malfunction light.
Called a tow truck ,mechanic said his code reader couldn't communicate with the car, told me to take it to Ford dealership ($240 per hour)
Possibly $3000 to fix it, the car is not worth it.
Now l just want to get rid of the system and not have a sensor show up a code.
So please help if you can I'm an aged disabled pensioner and can't afford the scammers at the dealership.
I need my car to get groceries and doctor appointments.
@@LMAutoRepairs
Please read my last post, I'm getting desperate.
Regards.
There is nothing I can do remotely...
Tools are needed, look for someone near you that has the necessary equipment to do it...
@@LMAutoRepairs
If l know what to do l can do it myself, I'm sick of paying out $145 per hour to workshops that take their time and do nothing other than tell you that it needs parts that are more than the car.
What is a DPF? (sorry if stupid question)
Diesel Particulate Filter
en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diesel_particulate_filter
Thank you for watching and for your comment!
Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) is what it says. Diesel engines have particulates which are harmful to the lungs. The filter is designed to capture these particulates and burn them off during a normal regen cycle. The regen cycle tends to happen when the car is driving at a constant, like fast road or motorway. Depending on the car, regen uses either a fifth injector. As corrected by Ian U, ad-blue is used to reduce other emissions! This why modern diesels are not suitable for town driving. If they are not given the time to regen, the DPF will get full causing the issues shown in the video.
Here is a Wiki on the subject - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diesel_particulate_filter
Some petrol direct injection cars are starting to have particulate filters too - www.autocar.co.uk/car-news/industry/volkswagen-equips-petrol-cars-particulate-filter-technology
Thanks, I had a message engine systems fault on a focus and this appeared, so thought there might be a connection.
@@konradc12
Adblue has nothing to do with DPFs. Adblue is the reagent used with a Selective Catalytic Reduction system for reducing NOx emissions.
@@supernoodle48 Thanks for correcting me. I will amend my reply. 👍
Just put the fluid for dpf it's under the car and it's all done
It is slightly more complicated than that...
But thank you for watching and for your comment!
👍👍👍
Definatly almost full of ash - needs clean out or replacement.
When it fails again...
👍
@@LMAutoRepairs it depends heavily on usage I guess. I have 2.0tdci that has almost 600 000km's on clock and to my knowledge has original dpf installed. I got error once, but rubber hoses for sensors where fried. But yeah. I most definitely wouldn't buy dpf diesel engined car if I was driving constantly less than 20km rides. I noticed that I usually run car for about 25km's or more when regeneration has triggered automatically. It's really easy to dismiss required stats for it to trigger. If I recall correctly there's engine temp, running time for engine, required speed for specific time and exhaust temperature requirements.
*The engine is very happy to do this. This is just a momentary solution.*
Well... been going for nearly a year... so, not too bad...😉
Thank you for watching and for your comment!
Dpf off and flush it with water and dpf cleaner. Takes 2h all together
You can only do what the owner of the car is willing to pay for.. 😉

Cold engine? Its joke? 4rpm?
Whatever...🤦♂️
Have answered that same question many times...
Thank you for stopping by...
The software waited until the car had warmed up before doing the regen or were you watching a different video?
Stop skipping and read the screen FGS

It is a bit unsettling...
I do prefer 100% to do them dynamically, while driving...
