Why Forced Regeneration Is Not Fixing A Blocked DPF

[@jonathanwilliams8309]

Well done and explained. I bet the owner was very happy to finally get his van running properly.

Keep Preaching Jimmy the Word might finally start getting around and reach New Places😊😊

[@roy2689]

I watch your videos regularly, and I just knew within a few minutes what the problem would most likely be, thanks Jimmy for your videos👍👍

[@mackmilly6715]

I had an issue with my DPF, kept getting a message on my dash. Took it to a few places to get it cleaned but with no luck on fixing the issue. I did abit of research and came across one that mentioned the fuel vapour valve, I took out the old valve and seen it was so badly clogged up with soot. I replaced the valve with a new one and it sorted the issue out straight away. Crazy how much they cost for such a small part.

Similar to me with my exterior temp sensor on a Peugeot Boxer. I could have gone on for ever paying garages to replace various bits in the emissions system but thanks to Mr O'Riley £80 sensor from Peugeot and my time fitting it fixed the issue. The man is a legend.

[@MultiVogon]

Evidence: Ford. Verdict: fuel vaporiser. Thanks to your vids, if I ever get a ford, I'll know the first thing to check!

[@Dirt-Diggler]

Treating the symptom is never the correct path, you treat the cause NOT the symptom 👍 Great tutorial vid as allways 😎

[@QOTSAPT]

well it might not need a forced regen but it sure does need new front tyres.

[@TimmysFavs]

Great job Jimmy. I hope you told the owner to buy a new tyre?

[@h4ppyleader]

Great vids mate keep them coming your the best thank you.

[@careyautorepairs]

Saving this to my playlist.

[@KrasYnek]

Good analogy. I think it's like after failing twice they just start putting more and more pressure until the tyre bursts...😢

[@introaether937]

Yes, forced regens have been known to destroy the honeycomb centre of the DPF, correct?

[@stephandolby]

Speaking of tyres, those don't look particularly healthy.

[@stevenwilson8016]

well names steve wilson just got a message back from jimmy, to book my van in ❤ he is local to me so simples , looking forward to reviews from me of 400% plus dpf levels like he has to deal with want him to show number plate have full video on, with all to see, not met him yet knows where he hangs out half mile from me, if you ever see work it its best form that should be standard in garages, even ethics how it should be 100% just open honest guy, just watching vids, i am local so looking forward to meeting Jimmy, very talented out of the box thinking man, if you watch his vids😊

[@tomsurrey2252]

Well done Jimmy!!!!

[@jaseduar]

Well explained 👍👍

[@TheGalifrey]

It's called treating the symptom not the cause.

[@Mk-oy9ns]

More money in that,ask any dr.

[@TheGalifrey]

@@Mk-oy9ns Amen to that!

[@pauloldfield6968]

How many times before they finely get it

[@coffeeguy6673]

Ive had a new heart but I keep having a heart attack....maybe address the cause, a blocked valve !!

[@eisenschmeisser3959]

maybe new front tires wouldn´t be the worst idea....

[@bithambumblebees5446]

I got a 2018 tourneo custom and i had a turbo go however prior to this i had the ad blue malfunction regularly pop up and disappear and pop up and computer to make codes go anyway after the turbo fixed and cleaned out it constantly comes up with exhaust filter is full driven to clean and then gets full ive had it cleaned twice and also exactly the same time the ad blue malfunction comes on any ideas before i take it back a 4th time 😫 last time was a week ago and only driven it 30 miles or so. So surely it cannot be blocked in that time. previous to the turbo the exhaust filter never came on ever. Only the ad blue malfunction

[@rogercanisius8497]

When the faultcodes p244c and p2463 are in the system you have a problem with your vaporizer. I don't understatement why none of the other shops checket the vaporizer? (When you put the codes on google you see always problems with the vaporizer!)So forced regen. doesn't work, a good shop should know this. You have first solve the problem and then you can trie a regen..

[@jimmypage1]

Anyone know how easy it is to swap the mini vaporiser pump mine leaks from time to time

[@mike-s8n8y]

None of that makes sense to me , it must be combusting incorrectly , it would not get up to temp to do a forced regen

[@malccolliver4721]

Why don’t they just change the sensor ??

[@kasparsherbsts7611]

Seat Alhambra 2011 2.0 diesel. Dpf shows 40 kpa back pressure after forced regeneration (35 kpa before regen). Fan goes on after every trip for 5 minutes. Dealer says dpf filter should be changed. Have heard that it can as sell be catalyst clogged. Pressure sensor got changed. What would you suggest to start with?

[@danielseibert4082]

What is the forced regeneration even for?

[@Mac_F87]

It's a way to clear out the DPF but only AFTER the underlying cause for a blocked DFP is fixed. Far to many people use it is "simple fix" as they don't understand how emissions systems work and can't diagnose them.

[@Dekmoore]

So what causes the vaporizer clogging.?

[@ORileysAutos]

Just general combustion soot. But faulty glow plugs would increase the amount of soot

[@introaether937]

Am i correct in assuming the fuel vaporiser is fitted close to the DPF and that not all DPF vehicles have them? > Mine [transit courier] over fuels from the main injectors and has constantly rising oil levels (filling the sump with diesel). Resulting in engine failure.

[@ORileysAutos]

Yes that's correct. This was a better system

[@introaether937]

@@ORileysAutos My 1.5tdi courier 69 plate has just has a new engine, and a new DPF - within 120 miles it has tried three regens. It must be either a sensor, a wiring loom or ECU issue. The main Ford dealership have not been able to cure it in 18 months.

[@jcash8455]

My transit custom throws up engine malfunction service now light and shakes at idle when it gets hot. Has been to 3 mechanics. 3 forced regeneration done. 4 new injectors + clutch n flywheel and crankshaft pulley. €2000+ and problem still persists... Any help would be greatly appreciated 🙏

[@Matt-we7si]

thats frustrating when they just throw parts at it , better off taking it to oreilys before all that money.

[@jcash8455]

@Matt-we7si I know mate I would but I'm in Ireland

[@richardpoulter2146]

I am so stealing your tire story 😂

[@mrmick4757]

Top Job

[@8motorhead8]

Just needs the vaporizer cleanin

[@warrengarfield309]

Do half of these mechanics even know that they have a vapouriser?

[@BleachDemon99]

It doesn’t require regeneration….it needs a drill bit and a re map 😉

[@BH-tp3pm]

3 forced regens back to back?! Christ!
