Why I Am Considering To Refuse To Clean Or Replace The DPF On These 2 Vehicles

Diesel particulate filter faults explained on the Ford Transit Connect 1.5 and Land Rover Evoque & Discovery Sport Models
This only relates to the euro 6 models

With over 40 years garage experience, you get a print out of the issues that could go wrong after you do a repair. And you get the customer to sign your copy and theirs.... it also states your terms and conditions for the dpf work should a new fault arise... Keeps you correct, and keeps customer correct. I'm so glad a retired as modern cars and customers seem to think you have no clue what your doing and as they paid you money their car should never ever fail again.....

[@zubeystinzen540]

Jimmy you need to make it known in the terms & conditions that with certain scenarios if the split boost hose could have already damaged the dpf & by cleaning it could expose the long term damage already caused is beyond your remit & thus you are not liable. After seeing some of the neglected vehicles you work on I'd have in the Ts&C's all vehicles must be in a serviceable condition & any showing signs of neglect are not your responsibility, owners must take responsibility for their vehicles condition. Good work Jimmy 👍

Hi Jimmy, I can honestly say that the public have got harder to deal with since Covid. There expectations seem to be a lot higher, they are quite often looking to blame someone else for there problems and they have also become quite hostile when you have actually gone out of your way to try and help them the best you can and save them money. This has come from not only myself and my work colleagues but also a lot of workshop owners as well I speak to. Some jobs/people it's easier to just walk away. Pretty hard to not let it dent your confidence, but chin up mate.

Your right and customers also struggle to understand how all this virtuous 'eco-green-emissions' technology is drastically reducing reliability across the transport sector and reducing efficiencies both mechanical and financial. Given half a chance I'd rip the lot out from the EGR back and hit delete in the software,. problem solved.

I think on those the DPF is a long way from the engine, so it remains too cold and always gradually soots up.

[@maurohenriqueoliveiraborge2825]

I have encountered same issue but with a Fiesta 1.5 tdci 2013. Done all that had to be done with DPF, then a couple of weeks later came back with low pressure: noticed an unusual amount of soot behind the wastegate lever on the turbo, also noticed the actuator lever was a bit too wigly, so I thought pressure was escaping through the actuator lever causing the dpf sensor to pick up wrong readings. Replaced the turbo with a second hand one I had as spare, and problem solved no issues anymore, no limp mode, no codes. So it got me thinking, could it be that the high pressure before dpf clean has blown the seals on the wastegate lever.

[@hedydd2]

@@TeriWilde I don’t know how old you are but emission controls have made a massive difference in air quality even in small villages and towns. Buildings used to turn black with a combination of soot and acid rain, the latter due to sulphur in the fuel. A couple of generations of kids have had their intellect reduced due to the massive amounts of lead once added to fuel for no good reason apart from adding to one company’s profits. Today engine power has doubled or trebled per unit of swept volume compared to the 1980’s while fuel consumption has halved when comparing similar cars of the generations. CO2 has declined by a similar amount as consumption has improved. Soot emissions have virtually disappeared thank goodness, because I remember walking around London in my youth and by evening a face wipe would result in a blackened cloth almost as if I’d been working down a coal mine. NOx is the big one as it is unseen for the most part, certainly nowadays where the haze, almost fog, it still causes in many Asian cities, has all but been eliminated by EGR and Adblue. You may take your totally selfish attitude and stick it where the sun don’t shine but most of us like clear skies and less bronchitis and lung cancer.

Hi I watch your channel on KZbin and you keep getting problems with code p2002 I had that problem tried two garages still had the problem I got the car a full service with fuel filter and it neither done it again until the filter was due to be done please give this I try my car is a ford fiesta 1.5 Graham

[@jamie0193]

Service(oil change) and fuel filter have nothing to do with p2002. You need to try a dpf cleaner(added into diesel tank) and go on long drives to let the dpf regenerate(self clean). Motorway speed for a good hour and do it often

[@johnwillan]

x2 Transit Connect's both split hose both cleaned & both failed within 2 weeks 2020 & 2021, the split hose definitely appears to cause an issue, in addition to that we have had x3 2020 Connects with failed steering racks, one required x4 within 2 months, Ford refused to fit anymore or offer compensation

[@DrewMartin-fu5ow]

Have you stopped doing video's, never seen any for weeks 😮

[@kevinkeast9610]

I always wondered why there isn't more petrol hybrid vans, you would get similar mpg to diesel without all this Euro 6 business

[@Dbdiagnosticsltd]

Mercedes benz do a test for dpf efficency faults, it's get a white cloth rub it inside the tail pipe. If it goes black then the dpf is faulty! I'd be surprised if they don't make it a standard check on mot for soot in the tail pipe, then MOT fail if the dpf is not working etc

[@vern453]

And that is why I have resisted buying any nearly new vehicles. There is just too much shite on them to go wrong. My VW T4 has no CAT, no DPF, and no Ad blue. And no error or warning lights on. Turn key and go.

[@chrishart8548]

Does it have an EGR valve or has that been blanked off anyway. Best was a TDDI or a Di before common rail.

[@vern453]

@@chrishart8548 Yep and blanked and remapped. TDi 2.5.

[@tomthepetrolhead97]

Modern day ford transits are rubbish go back to pre 2010 you could buy a transit do 300,000 miles in town or out on the motorway and they would keep going till they rot! Modern ones are just full of mechanical issues often pre 100,000 miles

[@thomasryan5068]

Thanks for sharing your thoughts on Ford.

[@pollywollydo]

Yeah but we’re really green now, 🤭 just throwing 3x as many vehicles away. Thanks EUSSR 🤡🌍

[@gamelias87]

ULEZ scam is a killer to "diesel" we all know

[@ukcitizen1158]

Used to be a time when Ford vans would run, and keep on running until the body rotted away. These days, the Ford Van body doesn't get a chance to rot because the Engine & DPFs end up rotten long before the corrosion can get a chance to set in! 😂😂😂😂😂

[@558vulcanxh]

They were still made In ENGLAND then , now they're just another foreign make 😊

[@paulriggers1558]

you know your car is shit when the dpf man kicks it down the road...

[@BleachDemon99]

Because they’re buying duff diesel from the taxi boys…..that’s the issue in my area, dodgy diesel wreaking havoc 😂

[@pollywollydo]

Que? 🤔

[@bobbyphelan6417]

Yes diesel has to much bio mix of 2nd grade vegetable oil and animal oil mix.

[@pollywollydo]

@@bobbyphelan6417 ah cheers for that, great for the best( old ) diesels but no good in this modern rubbish😠. Used to make my own for the old Terrano ( Nissan taxi engine) wish I still had it 🙄

[@philpowell6915]

Disclaimer time...!! 😉

[@joansmith8215]

So glad that I’ve abandoned diesel engined cars and gone pack to petrol

[@careyautorepairs]

1. Ford Transit Connect 1.5 2016 onwards with DPF. 2. Land Rover Discovery Sport 2016 onwards with DPF. 3 Range Rover Evoque 2016 onwards with DPF. I need to write this down so I remember ha ha. Going to save this to my DPF playlist so I never forget it ha ha. Thank you brother for the data, we all appreciate the hard work you do for us. People talking good about you on the comments of this video Jimmy. kzbin.info/www/bejne/gnKYl5Zsq6iZnqM&lc=UgzW9mhUdSAx7zAnL6B4AaABAg.A-FLX5e7mSqA1C_N5tas22

By the time the ports get clogged, the sensor is bad. Clean the ports & replace the sensor. They don't come back.

[@barryosullivan7957]

At least with my 1998 Toyota Landcruiser there is no DPF, no EGR and NO PROBLEMS!😅

[@careyparker2673]

Software correction could be the only repair for 1 in 10

[@theunqualifiedmechanic7570]

You can't just clean them and reset the values they also need to complete a static regeneration

[@fatfreddyscoat7564]

Essentially the manufacturers have avoided making a cleaner engine by installing an over-efficient or dense filter… this inevitably clogs up. This will be the next big PPI claim,, believe me.

[@davidnorton5887]

In this day and age you have to pick your customers and pick your jobs.

[@mt5144]

These Ford Connects have a Mega Problem, even FORD can't cure them, They had one for 6 Months in Trust Ford Dagenham they could not fix in which they loaned the customer a vehicle for the length of time it was there, they are a complete Nightmare, I know about a 2nd 69 Plate one also Ford in Norwich could not fix after 3 attempts, the customer returned that one to a dealer he purchased it from as the dealer could not afford to keep spending cash on it, The main dealer ended up sending it to a Car Auction.

[@introaether937]

18 months here. new injectors x 3, new dpf, whole new engine and still the oil dillution is above max 50 miles after an oil change :(

[@introaether937]

mine 69 plate also

[@ComeJesusChrist]

Now I wouldn’t touch any diesel engine that came out after 2010.

[@SwedishMisha]

Diesel - The fuel of the Devil.

[@rbruce63]

Perhaps you have to make the explanation before attempting to clean the DPF!

[@gerardmccarthy2432]

Jimmy....not enough hours in the day for this crack. I wouldnt bother my hole with these.

[@1954307]

i would make sure these customers understand and agree with the problem then no comeback...

[@Caleb-lbj]

Ok, my Land Rover Evoque has a clean DPF and code clear, Still, it states block DPF 😂😂
