This was my car and I have to say what a fantastic service you provide. Total professional service and I was kept informed at each stage of the work. The car runs so nice now with no warning lights on the dash. The car is used for my work and I was so pleased that it was booked with in a few days. Thank you for a job well done, I thoroughly recommend you to everyone that needs help with DPF problems.

[@wastedrainbow1814]

[@TimmysFavs]

Another excellent job Jimmy and I can see from the owners comment how pleased he was with your work! We know how much the hourly rate is at Mercedes-Benz garages!!!

[@chrisdavidson9431]

Always great that you show how to disconnect plugs etc, because to the diy guy it’s not always that obvious. Great work keep it up.

[@ORileysAutos]

Thanks 👍

[@photojames]

I enjoy all of your videos, but this one is a lot more in depth which made it even better 👍

[@ORileysAutos]

Glad you like them!

[@rafflesnh]

Unlike the MB dealership, you can tell the obvious extent of your experience in addressing this issue, Jimmy. 👍

[@ORileysAutos]

Thanks 👍

Great video and well explained throughout, I have a 63 plate e220 with similar issue fault code p2463 it’s gone into limp mode and won’t accelerate past 3000rpm. Had it forced regeneration and still not fixed the light is back on any help or advise will be appreciated 😢

[@graz-e.m.s]

Nice jobs 👍🏼

[@ORileysAutos]

Thanks 👍

[@fisheykhanny8824]

Very good good once again.

[@Parknest]

Jimmy, you can do these Mercedes diesel engines with your eyes closed. I've noticed that most of the Merc diesel engines you've worked on are the OM651. Have you ever worked on the older OM646? I own a 2009 W204 C200 with the OM646 and it would be useful for me should I ever have DPF issues. If you can't answer my question, I'll have to do a search myself.

[@urbexshauny7939]

my scanner is telling me that my c220 ash amount in the dpf is 17kg, does that even sound remotely possible to you? or is there a sensor somewheree thats totally throwing everything off? by the way i first discovered the problem because engine light on dash and had a split booster pipe.

[@thehouseholder5468]

Could that sensor be cleaned out jim ?

[@robbo770]

Do you take on merc b class w246 that just seems to not get fixed by garages! 2.1D b200, spent fortune on it still P00299 code

[@thindo]

When the Stealership sorry Dealership are now recommending you as their get out of jail card... You must be doing something right

[@davidnorton5887]

He said it was 'mercedes specialist', but anyone can call themselves a specialist lol.

[@daveawhittle]

Is the replacement sensor a revised one or is the part number and make the same? I wonder why they are prone to failure on them so much, doesn’t seem like it’s in a vulnerable or hot place or anything

[@ORileysAutos]

It gets very hot there

[@larkhill2119]

Not for the sensor but I personally knew 2 Mercedes suppliers in China for electrical parts. The cheapest bid wins. A better quality steel would cost 50p extra a panel and reduce the rust problems for around 200 a car. They build a lot of cars.

[@michaelhomer5155]

So when the ash content is high the filter needs replacing? Can it not be cleaned out somehow?

[@trickyfocus]

no

[@TheXMAN888]

It can with the right cleaner ...That dissolves ash and soot

[@davidconnor9779]

trying to purchase launch dpf cleaning fluid from Ireland to no avail. if you can let me know where you get it would be much appreciated ?

[@ORileysAutos]

There is a rep in Ireland I'll try to find out his contact details

[@headfulpro]

@@ORileysAutosdo you know if its available in north america too?

[@user-kk2bo4de8m]

How much warranty on a job like this do you give ?

[@larkhill2119]

How do you give a warranty on a service? It's like asking for a warranty on a car wash. This is why good mechanics leave the trade with people expecting an engine rebuild next week. I'm sure he would be happy to fix any mistakes he made but sometimes 10km down the road another fault exists and the engine light will come on.

[@user-kk2bo4de8m]

@@larkhill2119 Was asking as it is not stated , all professional services come with a contract either verbal or written ,

[@karlmabe1649]

So it wasn't full of Ash? Or would time tell?

[@ORileysAutos]

No if it was full of ash it would not have lowered the pressure

[@101thenuke]

Surely a MB specialist should know these sensors fail. Did they not see this on live data when they hooked up a scan tool that the pressure wasn't moving. Poor
