Jim what fluid did you spray into the air system to clean the carbon out of the egr/manifold system
@@garethd839ify same launch fluid or revive Turbo cleaner
The thing that is missing for car or diesel van owners is info . The car computer should tell the driver how full the exhaust dpf is . If a diagnostic machine can read it the info should be on the car info screen . If this info was available people could take the car for a run long before the yellow drive to clear light comes on . People simply do not know the car is in regeneration mode .
Even with a warning light on the dash and it's free of charge just take less than 5 minutes to top up washer fluid in the petrol station, still most of the driver can't can't do it by themselves let alone go for a DPF cleaning drive.
Went to India this year, we were taxi'd around in some new toyota diesel.
When it would go into regen, a row of bars would appear in centre screen showing as a count down of the regen till finished so yeah, toyota is doing it
@@Jack-qn4vtsounds like you were riding in either a Toyota Fortuner or Toyota Innova that was used as a taxi.
And yes, I confirm that it actually shows you on the dashboard how many bars the DPF needs to regenerate (up to 11), while driving, in my case, the DPF in my Fortuner starts its regen after 100-120km of driving and it takes about 5 minutes to fully finish the process by driving 60km/h, I actually don’t mind driving the extra 5-8 kilometres in a circle around the block each time it happens.
They would never be able to sell them lol
Then how can sale you new car after 5 year like i phone 😂😂
Good education video for those customers who don't understand what is wrong with their car before its cleaned
Tried to buy some launch cleaner direct from launch ...but a certain TH-cam influencer has managed to shift 3 PALETS from them 😂 you really do need to be sponsored buy them as you are doing wonders for there sales Jimmy!, excellent work and well explained true professional 👍
Sorry to hear that 😬😬🤫🤫
another excellent video jimmy i really enjoy your vids, your a massive info boost to most mechanics and diy folk. keep up the good work mate your top of the game on dpfs.
Hello Jimmy, you should reach out to Launch Uk and other companies for sponsorship. Don’t wait to be scouted. Love your videos.
Hi Jimmy
I just found you on youtube. Very impressive work. 👏👏
Your tutorials are great . I hope you do get sponsored by launch uk . I will be recommending you for dpf solutions. 👌🏾
Maybe one day!
Dpf warning triangle came on once again. I put half a can of Launch Uk flow restorer in an 4 weeks down the line all good, thanks again Jimmy 😁
Good stuff
YOUR DA MAN JAMES👍👍👍 IM FRESH OUTTA COLLEGE & YOUR CONTENT IS SO INTRESTING AND A LEARNING CURV. LITTUALLY BEEN BINGE WATCHING ALL THE OLD STUFF FELLA. YOUR SHOWING ME THE WAYS.
THANK YOU
Hi Jim, I'm so glad this video showed up on my TH-cam feed. I found in very informative regarding what to do and what not to do. Many thanks for posting this video.
Glad it was helpful!
it's nice to know a desent honest man like you
I recently took my dpf off, soaked it in dpf cleaner for about 10 hours and flushed it with water till it ran clear. Refitted and also repaired boost leak which was the original cause for blocked dpf and it worked great. I wouldn't use the cleaners that you just spray in as it doesn't clear it out fully. Backflushing it sends all the particles back the way they came into the dpf for a much better result.
Very good video demonstration and talk as are the other videos - re' the phone calls and questions to you - You need to know when to say no.
There's a lot who can't be bothered to do the research required to make an informed decision.
They look for the easy way out and prefer another to do it for them for free.
Don't waste your experience, money and time on them.
Good luck to you.
Another informative video Jimmy 👍 I’m going to order a bottle & give it a try so will be sure to mention that it’s on your recommendation
Thanks so much Ken 😀
You know, I tell people the same thing but they don't care. As far as they're concerned that's a problem for the next owner... Love the content, look forward to next one.
Its common to hear customers say "can you just turn the light off so I can sell it"
The manufacturers are still knocking these things out for a few years yet , and they will keep buying them, the suckers are the second hand bargain chasers looking for great mpg
Diesel owners should simply drive enough miles weekly so that the dpf self cleans.
Other than that,sell the car and buy one with a petrol engine
Hello Jimmy, I am a new subscriber based on you're knowledge and presentation. I am also a new diesel owner in this minefield, I do not have any issues currently as far as I am aware but I am anxious to offset anything in future.
To those ends, I intend to purchase the Launch products you recommend in this video,
so which product should I be purchasing just from a maintenance perspective?
Thanks for time in producing these very informative videos for the good of everyone.
Regards
Pete
Love to know how you can overheat the dpf when you see the temp of the dpf and you want it to rise up to 600 degrees anyway. And the module should check all the sensor readings when you want to do the regen. Saying ok if they are all good or no you cant do the regen. One thing which makes the regen stupid is the fact after you have to change the oil so theres grief just there. Its not a 2 seconds job doing that at all plus you got to buy the oil which is ridiculously expensive nowadays and get rid of the old. Chemical down the exhaust makes much more sense.
Great video, guy knows his stuff. Thanks
Thank you Jimmy. Appreciate all the help and advice mate
Fantastic video. Thanks. You mentioned once the EGR & DPF has been cleaned and there will be soot left in the car. Is there any reason why a friend has said i should clean the oil and filters afterwards too??? I assume the oil somehow gets dirty too?
Thanks for your clips, Great stuff.
Glad you like them!
Just having a new DPF fitted to my Range Rover L322 4.4TDV8 as the original has been damaged beyond repair (melted monolith). I’d been using Archoil AR6900-D and am worried that this may have been the cause. Do you know much about this additive and does it increase temps in the DPF beyond normal parameters?
Keep up the vids, you’re the DPF whisperer and I’ve learnt more from your videos than pretty much everything else out there combined!! 👍
Not used it so can't comment
I have used Archoil for the last 3 years or so and last March, my garage checked the DPF and the pressure reading and soot level were fine (11 YO, 110 000 mile S-Max) I believe it also makes the car run more smoothly although I see no improvement in mileage. Having looked at the additives as far as possible, I think there is a Cetane improver, a detergent and a lubricant for the pump and injectors. I think it just upgrades standard fuel to premium fuel at half the price difference you would pay at a garage. I will continue to use it as I am happy with the benefits I believe I can feel.
I’ve used 6900-D for 8 years,1ml/L, on my 13 plate Jag XJ tdv6, never seen any dpf warnings and I do a number of short trips. The chemistry in these archiol products decrease the temperature at which the soot combusts, so reducing the risk of dpf heat damage. Moreover the soot mass in the dpf is always negligible & the differential pressure is low, less than 10mbar.
Very informative video 👍🏻
What would cause black smoke coming out of exhaust with a car with a new dpf?
(had a new dpf about 18 months ago at main dealer)
2014 ford kuga 2.0 tdci 163 bhp, no codes what so ever and runs perfect.
Air to fuel ratio out. Boost leak or stuck EGR valve most common cause
Dirty air filter, stuck EGR valve
Brilliant videos chap 👍👍
Thank you
Great tips. I’ve learned so much about dpfs from you. I work on trucks. Just a bit on cars. Do you think a cheap air degreaser gun would work putting the fluid in. Cheers
Worst thing Royal mail did was buying Fiat Doblo with DPF ... constant regens until its "knackered" .
We have one at our office, it has to be forced regend every week.
Hi, thank you for the great advice and knowledge on your videos.
Have you used Launch UK Turbo EGR CAT & DPF cleaner.?
Il a Volvo V60 D4 that has had a stuck cable on the EGR and iv freed it but am aware it won't be at best of health.
I had to have my dpf cleaned professionally that wasn't cheep so looking for something that might help keep the EGR valve going for a bit.
Thanks in advance bud 👍

DPF KING JIMMY👍🔥🚗
I have a vw t5 that regular regens? I don’t have any warning lights come on but when it regens I get some of the gass fumes smell
in the cabin ? And a little smoke under bonnet? It will regen for about 10 mins give or take. Would a dpf clean help ?
Hi, thanks for posting this, very informative and helpful. Just wondering, does this mean that if there are any OBD codes at all relating to engine managment, then it will not perform a regen. I've got an Audi TT diesel showing a MAF fault code P1012 and a flap runner code P2015 as well as the DPF P2463 code. I've cleaned the MAF and put one of these stop limiting devices on the inlet runner motor (which looks new inside) but the faults persist. Anyway does this mean that it won't do a regen unless the two inlet codes are cleared.The car is stuck in limp mode and won't do a regen. Thinking about following your guide to cleaning the DPF which is easily accessible, but maybe it will still remain in limp mode..?
Yes the faults would need to be rectified
@@ORileysAutos thanks for replying
Re DPF Problems: Does driving style have any impact? i.e. using lower gears and keeping the revs fairly high vs. going up the gears and keeping revs low?
Hey Jimmy, love the videos so refreshing to see. Very knowledgeable. Wondering if you can know or recommend someone like yourself in Ireland? Having awful trouble with my Jag xf turbo and dpf (no shock there)

Hi Riley I’m from Singapore, I have an Isuzu C-Series Truck. Previously, the Adblue pipe broke and it ran without adblue for quite some time until the Multi-information-display screen states that its engine torque is being reduced. After replacing the pipe and top-up adblue in its tank, I did a manual regeneration and everything was fine. However the next day the problem appear again on my multi-information-display screen. Could my SCR be Damaged from running dry?
Nice,,,very informative 👍.....if I may ask a question,,,im working on a toyota hiace with the 1kd engine,,,it has 300000+ km on it,,,the dpf is registering 222% soot content and it will run forced regeneration for an hr and not drop 1 %...there are a few causes for the blocked dpf,,like a turbo blowing oil and maybe boost leak...can I drill some holes through the filter as a temporary solution ?
I wouldn't drill holes and ruin the dpf. Copy one of my cleaning videos
Just found a sprinter fluid level defect. I went over a sideways rut and my def level went from 3/4 to full and didn't re adjust.
So the level isn't accurate when off-road swaying or level changes.
Hi Jimmy, great videos, I have a Toyota d4d 1.4, had a regent done last year and now keep getting diesel in the oil so have to change it every 1000 miles, what could be the problem any suggestions would be helpful. Think it's time to invest in a scan tool.
Sounds like the dpf is almost full of ash so it's doing more regens that is diluting the oil
Hi..I have a 162 skoda ambition. I'm told I have a fault with dpf shutters??? Are they expensive to repair. Cheers Joe in Dublin
Is a 2016 or later dpf better than the old 2009 or thereabouts older ones? Or there isn't much difference in the technology or placement of filter?
Is the Launch fluid similar to the one Liqui Moly makes? Are they basically the same?
planning ahead i have a vw dfp that ecu is saying its nearly full 50 /60 gramms of ash. I assume there is no way to do a partial clean of the ash in place. I plan on monitoring the distance between regens. Is there anything else i can do. back pressure at idle is 7Hpa at present
Great informative videos.
What about problems with Adblue systems?
Will they be coming along?
There already here by the bucket load but I've not mastered that area yet
Great vid 👍
Thanks 👍
Hi what’s different between engine carbon clean and dpf cleaning or both have to be done at same time
Engine carbon clean is snake oil where as DPF cleaning fluids actually work it seem, as long as it’s the right stuff.
And what does this stuff really do , soot is flammable anyway so does it make it more flammable ??
How do you put that flouid in if the DPF does not have add blue
Injectors?
Excellent ☘️🔁🇮🇪
which launch computer do you use i have a snap on and due a new diagnostics dont know which one to buy thanks

Hi Jimmy can a dpf ( Adblue ) delete be reverted in the remap . I thick it’s been done on a transit I Own lots of soot and high reading on bank one noxs sensor but no adblue malfunction warning . I think sum old boys think dpfs can’t be manually cleaned ?
Yes you can revert back to normal software
What type of scanner are you using to check and reset the vehicles your work on. I have a Range Rover sport td6.
www.launchtech.co.uk/
Soot like soot but what about oil ash? What happens when that gets to the limit set in the cars ECU?
You can reset the values
Videos are great and very informative. I have a question if I may, shop thinks I have to replace the DPF.
My BMW F30 320d (236.000km on the clock) has had 3 DPF cleanings in the past year on the high pressure cleaning table (not sure how the contraption is called exactly) and they clean it to spanking new. The DPF will not regenerate on it's own because of the DPF blocked code (245700). This code is always on, so clean DPF, reset adaptations, clear codes, start the car, drive for a few minutes and this code pops even though the DPF is clean. Backpressure is within spec, idle - 7, 2000RPM - 22, 3000RPM - 51, 4000RPM - 74.
Also, it's reporting soot at 65-70% clogged on a clean DPF. I bought B-Tool to force regen, on a highway drive it starts regen, drops it from 65-70% to 1-2% in 20 minutes, reports the regeneration is complete, then it starts climbing up and it gets to about 40-50% in 10 minutes, after a day its back to 65-70%.
Do I need a new DPF or is there something else I can try before coughing out a fortune for a new one, any help is greatly appreciated.
th-cam.com/video/YXB6E_1i_kE/w-d-xo.html
You definitely have another fault somewhere or they aren't resetting the adaptions properly
Thank you very much for the advice. It was 54% last night, today after a 10 kilometer drive it's on 75% soot, so something is really weird with this car. I've exhausted my understanding of the matter so I'm going to visit 2 more shops, if they all think the same I'm just going to replace it. Thanks again, really appreciate it!
My dpf is regening every 150 miles or so, is this normal or is their a problem ?
My 98 ram 5.9 Cummins never have def,dpf or EGR problems because no have any one jajaja.
Have you ever used or know anything about JML DPF regen plus
I've not used it
Is vetech still ok to use? As I've just bought some after one of your other videos
Yes it's not bad
Dont mess with DPFs kids
Jack jones first
And deleted software plus removed dpf, next mot they will fail the vehicle as from emissions and plugging in they know what was done
How did the wynes fluid compare
Wynns isn't as concentrated. It's very diluted

Good tip for everyone out Do NOT BUY a car with a Diesel engine u are saving nothing a complete piece of shite and I'm a mechanic for forty years .
For my car i can buy new DPF for less than €200 euro, why waste money on these cleaning solutions that will last 1 year at most before having to do again ? !!
I take it you have a Triang pedal car? What car and model do you have?
@@PhilTheProf I have the Peugeot 407sw, many many outlets sell new DPF for less than 200 of your euros !
Hi. I can't order Launch UK DPF cleaner to Ukraine. In our stores I've found Liqui Moly Diesel Partikelfilter Schutz 0.25l. (5148-lm). Looks like same thing. Will it help to clear p2002-92 error?
