What's crazy is the amount of KZbin videos you have made with this fault on the vauxhalls, Nissan, and renaults with the upstream sensor pipe being blocked. And these mechanics of dpf specialist can't KZbin the fault and see a video you made and fix the fault themselves. ❤

What’s even more crazy is all the Garages don’t seem to be able to fix these problems.

Cheers Jimmy, i fixed my Trafic a couple of weeks back. This exact fault. Huge thanks for making the vid that showed me how. 🍻

Use a plumbing analogy if you got a leak there's no point mopping the floor until you've fixed the pipes 👍 Seems to be a real lack of knowledge about dpf systems among mechanics.

What have people used for cleaning out the sensor tube, I used a bike brake cable which worked, is there anything better, thanks for the videos Jim 👍
@adamfaith23219 ай бұрын
For the external air temp sensor test on the drivers mirror, when in live stream hold the sensor with your fingers and you will see the reading change very quickly. Might not be so easy in warmer weather so you may need to use a freezer spray.

I had a passat 1.6 bluemotion that gave me hell with dpf and egr problems. I think you would have sorted it.

Love your videos. Does shell v power make any difference to the longevity of a dpf. Thanks.

As you say if you don’t get back to the root cause the fault will just be back again. 5*

I got one, and it just raise and looks like a humpback bridge on the graph. Pipes clear, nanometer reading as it should on the pipe. Single pipe with internal pressure sensor for atmosphere pressure. All seems to be working as should but the graph looks odd. Toyota verso with 1.6 bmw engine and they changed sesnor location and design, even autodata has it wrong..

Hi jimmy, have you tried a bit of curtain track wire in the drill to clear the pipe or do you think it will be too big diameter?

Where did you get the drill attachment for drilling through carbon in the pipe please? Or do you have the name of it?
