I tell all my customers not to let their engines sit ticking over as that adds significantly to their soot content, I bought the launch x431 pro5 pad and the kinbolen k7 a digital pressure gauge and a launch gun and I do around three Dpf jobs a week , the customers are happy and word is spreading and all of this is because of the knowledge you share , thank you jim you are sir a living legend ❤

Jimmy, I know you've said this before but I think worth repeating, these DPF's block for a reason and that should be the first focus of the mechanics attention. My own take is everything happens for a reason, even if often you don't know what the reason is. There's no such thing as 'it's just Radom and it's one of those things'. Another very informative video, thank you.

Great videos and honesty as always Jimmy Thankyou , It would be great if Launch can release a cheaper tool as the eurotab 3 I can’t afford , so be good to see this new release you mentioned , just isn’t going to be in my price range a £800 tool maybe more affordable - has launch thought of perhaps renting out these tools so more good mechanics like yourself and me as a mobile mechanic of 16 years can reset the cars after the other checks and cleans have been carried out , catch twenty -two for me , would like the work and can do the work but can’t afford £6000 for this tool .. thanks again .

Brilliant video as always. I have a boxer, DPF blocks within 300miles, when cleaned pressure is at 3 mbar. Van runs nice, I have never seen you diagnose injector fault or air sensor. I assume these could be my issue. Do you have a video where you have found the fault with dpf blocking due to either of these faults? Good to here you more positive than the end of last year.. keep smiling, I know its tough paddling your own canoe

@ORileysAutos8 ай бұрын
Amazon tools are based on Asian vehicles so have issues with some functions on European cars. Amazon tools just come from a warehouse where as Launch UK have a team for UK support and distribution so prices are going to be higher. The quality of the tool is also noticeably better

Hi Jimmy, love your videos they are very clear and informative, just wondering would a blocked DPF cause smells inside the car. I have just bought a Merc CLS with this 3.0 L CDI engine and I am getting odours every now and then inside the car. The dealer who sold me the car said he has just replaced one injector, done a full DPF clean and replaced the DPF sensor. The car is running sweet, but every now and then there is a smell of fumes inside the car, any idea if its related. Cheers.

For actual replacement rather than just cleaning, you should check how much ash is in the DPF, as opposed to soot. The former can't be cleaned.
