Mazda 3 1.6 diesel, DPF additive faults... Fault finding and repair.

Nice fix as always, Luis.

good film. I did it at Peugeot the same process.

[@zezebro17]

Great video! I'm about to do the same on my 3. Btw, is there anyway to know which type of eolys the car takes?

[@LMAutoRepairs]

Usually is indicated by the colour of the snap-in cap on the tank itself... But there is plenty on info out there... From 2002 up to 2010 is generation if I recall correctly... 👍👍👍

[@zezebro17]

@@LMAutoRepairs I know, but in your case the cap is red. There is no red eolys. In this case it's manufactured from 2002 up to 2010 it should be green.

Hi Have the same code P2584, same car. DPF has been deleted a long time ago but the code appeared a few days ago. Where are you based?

[@pedroneves8288]

Luís, could you had the tank filled up and then just had the codes erased, so that no reset was needed? If so, no one would require an expensive scan tool to fill up the FAT and have the selftest done to complete the repair/refill.

[@beluxauto5968]

No. Lucky for ud it requires a capable scan tool and the knowledge. Different resets for different vehicles and also different after treatment fluids.

[@LMAutoRepairs]

As Belux said... 👍👍👍

[@pedroneves8288]

@@LMAutoRepairs Ok! Anyway, I found a video on KZbin where a guy fills up a Mazda 3 1.6 diesel FAT and then uses a ForScan scan tool with an Android App. Only 30€ plus free download for few months for a Windows version, or 130€ for an OBD/Bluetooth adapter plus the Lite version for some 140€ combined! It seems the Adblue system is better than the PSA system and much cheaper and easier to refill. Although, the adblue doesn't help the FAP regenerate, right?

[@LMAutoRepairs]

Adblue is a different system... But believe me, when it goes wrong, it goes expensive!... 💸💸💸💸💸

Hi Thank you. Crazy too difficult to fill. Isn't that urea?

[@LMAutoRepairs]

Gen 2 yes...

[@stockguy2860]

What happens if you don’t refill? DPF has been removed.

[@clueless6559]

Something off before you got it ,your live data said it had used 56 gramms of additive since the last filling, and it was obviously empty,

[@LMAutoRepairs]

I had no background on the car... who knows what was done to it...🤷‍♂️ 👍👍👍

[@kevinpalmer7452]

Very useful 👍

[@LMAutoRepairs]

😊 Thanks! 👍👍👍

[@neilmurphy845]

Why is the filling port under the car why not like others where it's beside the diesel cap

[@LMAutoRepairs]

Adblue has them by the fuel cap... This systems don't... 👍👍👍

[@khalidacosta7133]

You only fill it every 100k miles... so a bit pointless

[@paulsz6194]

The ABS / traction control light is an ABS module fault. I have a 2009 , 2.0L Petrol Mazda 3 with a touch over 200K miles (324K klm). It’s going to be a hefty repair bill to recondition the original module, as the modules are specific to the model year of the car. I’m looking a almost the equivalent of £1000 to to have the module removed, repaired & refitted ( with new brake fluid, all bled). 😕

[@LMAutoRepairs]

Not quite that... and was way cheaper... Video coming out for it... Stay tuned! 👍👍👍

How can we find you to look at my car problem ? Where about uk are you ?

Why doesn't it say on the screen add/check eolys fluid so people don't put addblue in the tank by mistake

I don't think this is something that they expected the ordinary car owner to do... 😋 👍👍👍

Are you sure that you used the correct additive ?if it's like the PSA one it should be red in color and thicker,like the one going out from the pump,just saying.

He might have used the cheaper "compatible" type... personally, I would only use the Eolys branded stuff, looking at tech data, it also contains fuel enhancements too.

Just to be 200% clear for others watching this video - this system is a PSA / Citroen EOLYS system, NOT adblu. Do not put adblu in this tank or anything other than EOLYS fluid !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It cost just short of £500 to get this done on a berlingo van at a Citroen main dealer 😲😲

[@LMAutoRepairs]

Dealer prices...👍👍👍

[@paulwalker1990]

Yep a complete rip off, we booked it in and told them the tank needed filling but they said they would have to charge for diagnostics to confirm it needed filling😲 Does anybody know if an Autel MK808 is capable of resetting the additive tank or whether it needs to be the bi- directional maxisys 🤔

[@LMAutoRepairs]

I never used the MK... but I am pretty sure it will do... the MK is the tool range that superceded the DS708, which I owned ,and was capable of this sort of stuff... But, someone out there I am sure will be able to confirm that... 👍👍👍

[@khalidacosta7133]

@@bryanlatimer-davies1222 So what if it lasts 20 miles? It costs £150 to refill it... and then it's good for 100k miles or more. Either that or go with the rest, post-cycle fuel injection strategy but then you risk a blown engine because of diesel contamination of engine oil. I bought a Pug diesel on 100k. It's now on 200k and never had to refill. Computer shows 1 litre left, so maybe another 30k miles left until I do..... no smoke, perfect regeneration.

Time completely wasted repeating urself at the beginning should of just done it once then straight to P2584 fault and different videos on other faults. Too slow.
