well done Rob 👏. This was a quick money 🤣(for European car) So far, I guess you are absolutely satisfied with your new scan tool. Maybe, a video/comparison from all your baby's (scan tool 🔧),and what you are thinking from your experience? Ps. I couldn't find the link on the description.
Thanks Lambros!! Yes the Max is great in my opinion but like we all know, all the scan tools have their own strengths and weaknesses. www.thinkcar.com has all the products listed
Hi Rob - our 09 Audi Q7 3.0 recently had the coil light flashing whilst driving and experienced loss of power. After turning it off and on the coil light went out and runs normally now. Is there a chance it is the DPF sensor? Dean
Hi Caroline, it's very hard to say without seeing it. Did you get it sorted and whereabouts are you located in case I can help you or point you to someone local to you?
This same thing happens to my 2012 model. It mainly happens on motorway runs for some reason. It starts flashing, I pull up turn engine off and back on and it's good but I will have to get it seen to.
@@romanosautomotive I’m having the same issue with my 09 any suggestions on what it could be mine is deleted. I have a scan tool to get codes if that helps
Mine flashes randomly on the freeway and quits taking fuel it will maintain speed but won't gain any ... I have to pull over shut the engine off and start it back and it goes away ....only to repeat a few miles later
Wow, how to spend a ton of time chasing the obvious problem and costing the customer piles of money chasing a failed sensor. Read the code, change the sensor and rerun the test. If the problem goes away then your done with this type of failure. So obvious when you get an elevated reading with the engine not running. Daaaah.
Well done Rob, It's always good to prove what you've found, especially to show the customer that it was like that before you got there! 😁
Thanks Max! It's always great to show the before and after!!
Dont envy you having to remove that broken pipe from the hose. Great video 👍
Thanks Kevin. The hands had a few cuts on them that day !! haha
Great job as always.
I suppose the negative reading was due to the broken fitting being the downstream side of the dpf.
Nice one Rob. I see some DPF Doc catch phrases creeping into this one lol
Darren is rubbing off on me! Is it hot or is it not? ;)
@@romanosautomotive it depends? Can you get away with wearing a thong like Darren? 🤣🤣
Hello, do we always have to identify the sensor when replacing it, thank you
I've got cold start issues on my Audi a5 I'm not seeing a glow plug symbol at all as i turn the ignition on not even for a second.
Boom. Think tool awesome
Great vid. What was the 0001 you entered/ how did you know to put that in?
Thanks Schammo, I use VCDS alot so I knew to put that in for this reset.

I had the same issue. I've replaced the sensor but now my car battery is getting drained really fast. :(
