Subaru OB 2,0D - MY 2014 | Oil Dilution | How to avoid Limp Mode

[@Mchs2Go]

After few regents & followed this procedure. DPF ligths stop flashing. Thanks mate

[@FredSuomi]

Happy for you - Mind maybe - if not done yet - your oil dilution ratio - Diesel fuel is not the best slide bearings lubricant - cheers,

[@easternmovementprinciples4799]

My man. Thank you.

[@thespammerhammer]

@FredSuomi Agree and use them. It is the application you placed in the video that you used. That is my interest of those specific PIDS. Thanks again

[@FredSuomi]

No problem, the pictures inserted in the video are extracted from the OBD2 diagnosis tool Klavkarr 110 | Android & iOS compatible. Hope this is what you were searching for.

[@LatvianLifestyle]

thank you,its helps me.

[@thespammerhammer]

Very Interesting, what application is being used to monitor oil dilution?

[@FredSuomi]

A relatively cheap & standard OBDII device can be used for this monitoring purpose, without being able to trigger forced regens in case of high soot accumulation.

[@ВикторияАнуфриенко-в5л]

do you know if your manual sequence pressing the brake ecc can work on a forester 2009?

[@FredSuomi]

Worth a try! If you see the glowplug light flashing for 3 seconds after the explained routne, your oil dilution is back to 0%. Connedting an OBDII device to check this wil also help. Cheers

[@ВикторияАнуфриенко-в5л]

@@FredSuomi What program for OBDII can be used? My program does not show such data.

[@FredSuomi]

@@ВикторияАнуфриенко-в5л They are plenty of OBDII devices showing oil dilution ratio - Among others Klavkarr 210 will do the job. Cheers

[@Danysleo180]

nice video! do you know if your manual sequence pressing the brake ecc can work on a forester 2015?

[@FredSuomi]

Tks! This operation is actually described in the vehicle owner's manual (chapter 11-22). Regardless of DPF management, the reset must be performed after every oil change anyway, and must be available to the owner without dedicated OEM software. It should therefore be described in your manual too. Cheers,

This doesnt work on my Forester XT2.0 SJ 2017

[@dayledonne8272]

It is for Diesel engine only.

[@FredSuomi]

It should, unless otherwise stated in the owner's manual of your car. (Oil reset paragraph) - Make sure maybe to align with parking lights position =0-0= when performing the routine and not until O=. Good luck,

[@dayledonne8272]

Fred, what OBD reader do you use?

[@FredSuomi]

Hi Dayle, I use klavkarr 210 and it does the job for the DPF performance monitoring (Reading mode only: ash & soot %, oil dilution ratio,...). Cheers,

[@dayledonne8272]

Thank you Fred, you are the man 🙏🏻

Doesn't work on outback '16

[@FredSuomi]

Hi, try the routine showed on the video but with the light switch turned from off to - "o-o" position instead of head light. Should work ;-)

[@johnsmith-bi4ho]

​@@FredSuomihi tried but don't know why it isn't working. This is the 2016 outback diesel UK rhd version 🤔

[@FredSuomi]

@@johnsmith-bi4ho Sorry to hear that. The "valid" procedure for your 2016 model must be described in the owner's manual as well since the oil dilution counter needs to be reset when changing the engine oil. (Paragraph 11-20 in my OB BR 2014 manual). Hope this will help.

[@johnsmith-bi4ho]

@@FredSuomi I'll double check that... Cheers
