Wow, according to google 50psi = 3447 hpa. The master has truly done it again. Thats a hell of a job , wel done Jimmy. Your videos are so helpful to us all 👍👍

[@ORileysAutos]

Thanks again!

[@markmagee2382]

Proves a lot of dpf ‘specialists’ just know how to hit force regeneration on their scanner. Aren’t those engines a combined thing with Renault or am I dreaming, if so maybe looking under that might have given more live data 🤔 great job sorting it

[@kevinbaird7277]

Your correct, the engine is a Renault engine with the code K9K, this engine is in so many cars, very good solid performer.

[@davidbonnett5441]

Had one of these a few months back, same broken pipe. I ended taking dpf off and cleaned it with Wynnes dpf cleaner over a couple of days. Worked a treat.

[@JoseSilveira-newhandleforYT]

That was an impressive job! That Launch fluid does miracles!

[@robfarrell7362]

The wizard has saved another Dpf. Hope you got a good tip👍

[@ORileysAutos]

Cheers

[@georgehiggins3103]

Customer must be well pleased....you saved them a fortune and their car !!!

[@elbuggo]

I wish the O'Rileys would have gotten a tiny bit of that saving too.

[@pedroresolve]

If a client use DPF cleaner from Jlm Lubricants, probably this problem do not happen. In Portugal we use a lot of JLM and is very good. Very good work at you do! Nice my friend

[@paddymullan2765]

Ah Great job Jimmy ,it’s great when they go like that ,when you have to fix someone else’s mess I would bet that customer has your number now stored on their phone

[@shauncoates326]

Dpf brought back from the dead,no problem for the dpf master,well done jimmy👍

[@A--Abbas]

That's brilliant, really impressive, nice one Jimmy, thanks for the video and the valued information.

[@ORileysAutos]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@tomwall7966]

I love Jimmy videos with all money we are saving watching your videos we have send u on brown letter with cash

[@davyarthurs]

Nice work. Hopefully the owner will spend the money saved on a well overdue set of tyres!

[@truthplease4868]

Well absolutely

[@BillyBob-uc9zp]

"Your car feeling tired and all flabby?" "Flush it with LAUNCH, the original Mack Daddy!". Well done Mr 😎

[@1954307]

well that one turned out really good customer must be made up, right person for the job,all diesels every so often need a good kicking every so often and you wont ever have a problem with the dpf our volvo has done 160k never had a problem with dpf...

[@thindo]

Another job well done... Dpf legend in the making

[@MrZimmaframe]

6:33 I was expecting to see you emerge from the smoke with your DPF gun 😄. "It was another DPF job..."

[@Ronick-Q-46]

I have a 2010 Qashqai 1.5 thank Christ no DPF my Autel gives very little info about the car as well. Great job done.

[@ORileysAutos]

Glad it was helpful!

[@Stoney3K]

Nice work! That gives me a lot of hope for my V50 with the 1.5TDCi, which has a blocked DPF due to a stuck injector which was dumping loads of fuel down the tailpipe. I replaced the faulty injector but even though it can start and run fine for about a minute, it will cut out after that when the DPF warms up, and the turbo won't spool. Pressure sensor reads 800+ mbar so I'm pretty convinced it is blocked.

[@ORileysAutos]

Good luck!

[@anthonyoconnell9389]

Well done jimmy great job ☘️🥃💚👍

[@ORileysAutos]

Thanks

[@newbeginnings8566]

The DPF is in better shape than that rusty underside

[@bobr9731]

Another brilliant job. Most mechanic's would have would have walked away from that one Thanks for the education Jimmy.

[@ORileysAutos]

Thanks 👍

[@tomwall7966]

Jimmy is the man to sort out all dfp around

[@jonnycsuperplumb765]

Lovely job 👍🏻👍🏻

[@claytonfarrugia9809]

saw a lot of your very helpful videos (incl one on a Tucson). 2016 Hyundai Tucson 1.7 CRDI with 40K miles on the clock. Unfortunately started getting intermittent Exhaust system fault and noticed diesel increasing the oil level pretty quick (when I say quick it is from mid to over Full after less than 20miles). Was told that the car is attempting a lot of frequent regeneration cycles. There's evidence of soot in the tail pipe and idle pressure is reading around 1mb, and only around 20mb under load, which apparently was told is not correct. Mechanic diagnosed that the DPF is therefore busted and there's no chance of cleaning meaning the only way is dpf replacement. It is apparently a common issue with Hyundai/KIA due to a temperature surge. What's your take on this? Unfortunately there's no real driving space here, thus passive regeneration is very very limited. It is possibly only a dpf issue, how can so much diesel end up in the oil after only 20miles driving?

[@claytonfarrugia9809]

to add that prior to replacing the oil, 2 forced regens were done, to no avail as the intermittent exhaust system fault popping up once in a while prior to realising I was having so much diesel-oil contamination that I stopped driving the car.

[@DerGolf2000]

I’m looking for a digital manometer. Is the version with range 2 bar (2000mbar) or the version 0,2 bar ( 200 mbar) the Way to go?

[@virgiljunior-tn5zb]

Same problem same car Only different thing is that I have the red engine light on. Car works fine. I delete the error but after 10 minutes the red engine light comes on again. What should I do

[@michaeldixon190]

Your videos are really good! Manually cleaned my DPF and cleared the blockage code. I now have a P040300 - EGR circuit. Is this normal? Have no dash light on.

[@EndstyleGG]

You most likely have a blocked dpf because of that egr code

[@anniechrisbendy6000]

If i go to a garage how much should a dpf blowout cost approx ....

[@stand.up.FFS.]

If i lived in the UK i would want to learn from you ... best i have seen... great knowledge

[@ORileysAutos]

Thanks! 😃

[@ianhawdon3680]

Great job customer must be over the moon

[@mickspencer4171]

Not seen that done before, great video,

[@ORileysAutos]

Thanks 👍

[@davidmckendrick5628]

great job keep up the good work

[@ORileysAutos]

Will do

[@tomwall7966]

Amazing job way stuff unblocked the dpf

[@ghunt9146]

If dpf's regen or have to be cleaned & all the soot goes out the tailpipe anyway, what's the point in having one?

[@ORileysAutos]

The soot doesn't go out

[@ghunt9146]

OK, thanks for clearing that up.

[@cedriclynch]

The muck doesn't go out while the vehicle is being tested for emissions, that would be embarrassing. The vehicle knows when it is being tested and holds the stuff in to be purged (sorry, "regenerated") later when it is not being tested.

[@simonmiddleton4977]

Great result Jimmy 👍😃

[@ORileysAutos]

Thanks 👍

[@jimmydickson8854]

Just showed you how good launch fluid is

[@Saeed-uc9gw]

Fantastic work you do, I must say. Based in Birmingham, I have a Seat Leon FR 2014 2 litre diesel that would need a Dpf spray into it. Are you free to do so?

[@ORileysAutos]

Only in Bedfordshire

[@iancoombs4324]

jimmy crushed it again

[@ORileysAutos]

👍🏻

[@kendavies4840]

I have bought my first diesel. A ford kuga on a 14plate. 49.500 on the clock. Only short journeys to and from work .how often would you recommend taking on a long run to prevent these problems . Love the Channel one content you put on ….

[@ORileysAutos]

Once every 200-300 miles would need to be driven more than 30 minutes. Doesn't have to be motorway as long as its moving not in traffic

[@hughmarcus1]

Find a hill too, diesel engines produce most heat under load. A nice long hill gets enough load so it can regen the DPF if needed.

[@sebastijano]

How much is coast to have dpf clean ?

[@oilgear1]

Hi been following for a while .excellent videos . Can I ask what pressure you run your little compressor at ?

[@elbuggo]

I guess 9 bars, or 120 PSI - quite high.

[@ORileysAutos]

9bar

[@Ian-ij4of]

Whats better, launch dpf cleaner or wynns off car dpf?

[@ORileysAutos]

Launch is much better

[@Ian-ij4of]

@ORileysAutos thanks, where can I buy it, cracking job your doing BTW 😀

[@ukexbreakdownman]

heard of a roadside breakdown guy who did a forced regen on a BMW and set the car on fire complete burn out

[@ORileysAutos]

Yes I've heard it

[@johnredpath]

My brothers having the same issue with his astra j 2.0 cdti Jimmy...what do you reccomend.

[@MarcMorris-wp7ie]

If its that blocked take it off and get it cleaned properly

[@StelioKontos-wk9km]

Cleaned properly ? What part of jimmys dpf cleaning isn’t done properly ?

[@jobdele7980]

CAN YOU PLEASE SEND ME YOUR POST CODE THANKS

[@ORileysAutos]

[@terford1995]

60k Miles in 13 years thats the reason why it is struggeling. These persona need a petrol car Not a Diesel

[@Cheepchipsable]

Probably, but it's hard to appreciate the differences when there is no information and dealers don't tell people anything when they buy cars.

[@davidmehlhorn726]

I’ve the same car, same age but with 330,000kms on it and no issues with the dpf. However I do long runs (eg work commute is 80km round trip) and no city driving. That’s what diesels are best at.

[@davidmehlhorn726]

That broken pipe is a common fault. It breaks every 2-3 years on my Qashqai. I carry a spare in the car so I can change it when, not if the current one breaks. It’s a simple five minute job but the car will go into limp mode and eventually stop completely until that pipe is replaced

[@MrZimmaframe]

That's not really an excuse tbh, I had a Kia with 54k miles on the clock, 9 years old, and drove fine, no dpf issues. The issue as Jimmy said with this one was the broken pipe. Any engine dpf or not which isn't getting the proper air to fuel mixture will get soot build up, and isn't good for the engine.

[@davidmehlhorn726]

@@MrZimmaframe I disagree. Diesels are designed for long distance runs, not short hops to the shop. Buy a petrol car if you regularly do short runs.

[@-DC-]

Change the Oil at Half Manufacturer Interval Warm it up and drive it like you mean it, Never had a single problem following that approach.

[@hughmarcus1]

That vehicle looked like it was the opposite. Inside was a tip & tyres looked well worn. Has all the hallmarks of a car that just gets driven on short runs & never looked after.

[@esbrasill]

What keeps the cleaning fluid from flowing backwards into the engine? there may be an exhaust valve open isn't it?

[@Dan23_7]

59000 miles of nipping to the shop and around town I’m guessing. Folk need to know how to take their cars with these hideous ancillaries cleared.

[@ORileysAutos]

To be fair it only blocked because of the broken intake pipe

[@SocksWithSandals]

This is exactly the issue my Peugeot Expert 2012 van is suffering from right now. Just the video I needed to see, Jimmy.

[@fasilmohammed]

Hiya, got a 2014 Nissan with the turbo whining loud and smoke from exhaust. I’ve been told the turbo has failed and that is due to blocked dpf. But the car has no fault codes showing on the display. Would you suggest the the garage is correct and the dpf is blocked or can a turbo fail without the dpf blocked? Any advise I’ll be appreciated many thanks

[@timorridge3390]

Jimmy top work to bring that back working and to that level. Can i email you a question about my DPF?

[@SeamusFoley-d4r]

Nearly all french cars in these videos and all Diesel Does that not tell u anything. Worlds worse .why are people buying such Brock.

[@zubeystinzen540]

Its a good job Jimmy the soot sheriff's in town to sort these forced regen cowboys outta business,yeehaa😂

[@ORileysAutos]

This town ain't big enough for the two of us 🔫😄

[@TimmysFavs]

Too many short journeys & lack of maintenance, just been driven until it went wrong. Tell the cheapskate to buy a set of tyres too as they look bald!

[@Athelete1982]

Can Launch liquid be pumped through oxygen sensor.

[@stephandolby]

I wonder if switching to a Renault Kadjar or Nissan Pulsar would have yielded more data?

[@DerGolf2000]

Or just EOBD?

[@mechanic1098]

Check under Air bag for live data

Another win Jimmy!

Yes 👍🏻

Thanks a lot!

[@bobbondarul7448]

Nice job If someone has a blocked dpf is ok to just drill some holes in and remap the soft ? Or is a must to remove all the stuff ? Thank you

DPF, Don’t Proceed Further

[@MrByootox]

Between that intake pipe bursting and the exhaust manifold pressure sensor pipe blocking up all the time 🙄🙄🙄 Relentless with them 🙈

[@ORileysAutos]

Yearly replacements

[@JustMe-Dude]

Jimmy I had an issue not being able to see DPF differential pressure in a vehicle. Turned out to be called "Delta" pressure. Made it a little harder to find in the search of the Live data.

[@ORileysAutos]

Yeah I did search lots of different wording

[@mike-s8n8y]

There must be something wrong in that filter if it blocked that much and a cleaning fluid just cleared it that easy ,

[@ORileysAutos]

The broken boost pipe I showed

[@TheOriginalDaveJ]

Nevermind making the customers day, think that job made your day tae Jimmy 👏👏👏

[@ORileysAutos]

You got that right!

[@neilstokescvwshrewsbury7939]

Must be an extremely pleased customer !! Top work Jimmy

[@ORileysAutos]

Hope so!

[@barrycoleman4686]

Had a laguna last week with the same problem. Check the injector that's bolted to the back of the turbo housing. More than likely it's blocked solid. Won't let the dpf regeneration happen

[@ORileysAutos]

Thats the turbo pressure sensor pipe. It was already done by a previous mechanic

[@barrycoleman4686]

@ORileysAutos I know the pipe you're on about. Small narrow pressure one. This is basically an injector. Fed by small pump over the the top of the starter. Pipe runs around side of the head. The 5th injector some people call it

[@nathanreid2974]

You Should send that to launch UK

[@ORileysAutos]

Yes

[@nathanreid2974]

HAVE YOU SENT IT AND IF NOT, WILL YOU SEND IT@@ORileysAutos

[@sekibulja7254]

Same with my both Launch machines....they will not display vital dpf info on live data and they will not connect to any ABS units on all J10 and J11 chassis despite being repaired by Launch Uk centre. Hence i now have Autel and its brilliant compared to Lauch. Great results Jimme boy!

[@TiagoVieira]

in my experience the autel is a more complete diag machine. very close to zero the amount of times it couldn't connect to a vehicle.

[@ORileysAutos]

I have an otofix from Launch. I tried it on this car but the same

[@TheGrobbo1956]

What a great result, well done👍

[@ORileysAutos]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@malcpaul996]

I just took my Mondeo on the German autobahns and did 130mph at 3,500 RPM for a good few miles, that should keep my DPF clear 🙂
