My multimeter is a klein mm400 from home depot , its built wierd as hell , but once you figure it out it aint bad , you turn it on bu setting it to volts , but it wont measure volts , until you push function , then it shows millivolts , i tell anyone that uses it , that it was built by idiots 😂😂

Your channel is pure gold.

I appreciate the machine. But i think it can be taken off at home .. Soaked in DPF cleaner and then flushed with water and a conpressor through both sides. Of course you need to be careful and dispose if contaminates.. my research now leads me to understand / Research Difference between soot & ash ???

I would love to purchase it n be shipped to kenya .... Any leads

Does it have a service brake mode for doing rear brake pads?

God bless you I'm from Ghana can I get ur number please

So the subscription is only for updates? If you decide not to get anymore updates, can you cancel the subscription and will the scanner function as it should?

Hello Friend , how do I update software of tool ? Make an video , please

This machine is so unnecessary, expensive, a faff. The manual pump is a nightmare. Somebody has made a machine for no reason, just thought they found a solution to problem that can be replicated with DIY tools at home. You also need an expensive compressor.

That thing is a toy compared to our cleaners 😂. You better hope you got no leaks or your hose doesn't pop off either 😂

Hey mate you’re star at tec , where are you guys located, I mean if I can work experience with you?

Very interesting! Thanks very much.

Good video. Please could you tell me what the expected live data pressures should be for a good dpf from a differential pressure sensor on both idle and fast idle as well as from a exhaust pressure sensor (single pipe). We use e3 technical at work which often doesn’t give me this relevant information. Sometimes if the pressures are too low this could indicate a cracked dpf but not knowing how low is too low makes it harder to diagnose. Although black soot within the tailpipe is usually a giveaway.

Somebody’s grandmother is gunna be mad!!!!

So there's actually nothing in this machine, no integrated compressor and no automatic water feed ??? So anyone with a 'watering can' and a compressor can use a rubber hose fitting to 'clean out' your DPF. I'm calling BS on this so called 'machine'.

In ireland a professional dpf cleaning is 180 euros. Or proble 150 pounds dpf removed and sent off. There are serveral stages cleaning a dpf apparently they say it takes 6 hours . Ultrasonic vibration and flushes are involved. Apparently high pressure water pushes the insulation surrounding the dpf out and possible the expensive metals also

I used alloy wheel cleaner serveral times

What a silly racket. lol... That would definitely find itself in the trash in my State.

early peugeots had a 2 part DPF that came apart to clean or replace - the replacements were only a couple hunderd pound - ALL the maufactures could do this if they wanted - - IF IT WAS REALLY ABOUT THE ENVIROMENT & NOT JUST MONEY !!

Hi, I am new to your channel. I was very impressed. You obviously have the heart of a teacher. Any thoughts on opening a virtual school for car repair.

If engine vibration plays a role in forming the waveform , so I think this test will be challenging and confusing if there is engine misfire due to non-mechanical internal failure ! , e.g : misfire due to ignition failure in one cylinder , which will reflect on the waveform behavior as it will create inconsistent waveform corresponding to the failed cylinder , due to engine unbalance I'm not sure if this will raise the waveform voltage value or decrease it , but I think it will be decreased opposite to the expected raise if there is head gasket leak It deserve an illustration video on the effect of misfire on coolant pulse waveform ! lets try it --- and we are waiting for your experiment !

These are a last resort as removing a dpf is labour intensive far better to clean on car and utilise a proper running vehicle to carry out its own clean. As said a blocked dpf is the symptom not the cause repair the cause first.

Darren this was a good educational video especially for myself as I know very little about diesel engines . Guess the machine is quite popular in Europe as a lot if not most of the cars I’m assuming are diesel . Now for the all important question did it fix your car ? Also is the flex piece part of the DPF filter or can it be purchased separately ? Thanks for sharing 👍

This is exactly why i advise everyoe i know to keep well away from diesel and all the taxi's in my area are running hybrid ,as far as i am coconcerned diesel is dead

A blocked DPF is normally the symptoms not the cause. Have you find the cause? Machine works great

Invent a DPF THAT can get hot enough to disintegrate Anything without doing damage to the unit 🎓 Billionaires instantly👍 💲💲💲💲💲💲💲💲💲 Interesting 😁 cheers 🇺🇸

wish you would have taken the run off from the flush and put it in a small pan and set it out in the sun and allow the water to evaporate and see what it left.

With so many brands with multimeter out there , what's the best (recommended) automotive multimeter ????

Was it just measuring the back pressure on the machine as it said differential pressure on the print out , cheers good video for some understanding of dpf off car clean and explain of ash. ta !

Thanks for this great video Darren , glad I just watched it, as I was going to head over to the Local Bagwash (Launderette with my DPF ) I was running out of places to go with it hidden inside my dirty clothes 🙂

hi Darren have you done a test on the HS 502 from Martin Loren scope

Got to admit, i wasn`t overly impressed with that process, when you take into account the average charge of £250 the cleaning fluid, labour time, and initial cost of the machine which i assume runs into a good few thousand pound. Is it worth the investment ?

So all you need to clean a dpf is a watering can some TFR and a tyre bead blaster with a rubber cone on the end of it filled with some water and air to 4 bar!

Sorry for that 🐈. It's filthy. Lol

shouldn't matter about the flexi if its measuring back pressure and not differential pressure. Did it drive better 😉

Good presentation. What's the recommended time to clean the DPF? What cleaning chemical does it use and how hazardous is the cleaner?

I’m watching you more and more Daren and don’t understand nothing what is your point and when you will start teaching electricians staff.😢

Does this unit have "variable persistence mode"? This mode is handy for catching glitches in communication signals.

Dang, good information

100%

Ha ha, i used my wife's hemming measuring tool, to measure a crankshaft on an engine that i needed to cut down.

Easier to use a letter opener

I didn’t understand nothing.

can we use for japanes ,indian , chines n malaysian cars n vehicles

I took an extra 90* pick to the grinder wheel and sharpened it

Thank you! Really enjoy your channel. Late (new) starter at 73. Was a keen follower of mechanics to my mid 30's. Then, entered corporate rat race. Promised myself during boring corporate meetings, once I retire... Did just that with BMW bikes and computer based diagnostics. Then my car experienced random loss of power for a few seconds. After many scans, best I got was a quote of R39K for TB replacement without warranty. Got the Autel 808 at 30% of the aforementioned quote. Got stuck in and recorded live data. Eventually captured an incident. Charted the following with Autel. 1 APPS, Electronic TPS, Mass Airflow, Actual Engine Torque and Vehicle Speed. Analysed control signals of APPS and TPS on Excel. Control signals all ok. Then remembered, read somewhere in '80's about fatal accidents where simplistic APPS (rheostat types) sent faulty signal which resulted in runaway vehicles. Considering attached chart, decided to check brake light switch. Switch tested good. Readjusted the switch, voila, problem gone since then. 8 Months now. Used the savings to acquire a Pico 2205A, which got me following your channel. latest addition, a thermal image camera! Enjoy the new learning and your videos on the scope tremendously. Keep up the good work! drive.google.com/file/d/1Ai0I-8PTdmUuc6Lcty6DoDPg3gErHWeF/view?usp=sharing

Well done - and understandable!
