Zdravím já použil na čištění u nás tak zvaný čistič na krbové skla (krbyk) zatím jsme tím cistil chladič výfukových splodin a funguje úžasně za pár euro a jsem zvědavý co udělá s tím dpf.

On older cars 400.000 km and up i mount the lower boost pipes with a little bit of soft tex 7 silicon . Yes its a b!tch to demount afterwards , but its a cheap & cheerful solution . If you have the time for it :) . Darkside development and wagner both make good intercoolers also for bmw .

Dreft with hot water does the job too :) .

hello Steve, apparently there is a certain frequency at which the filter of the DPF gets cleaned without affecting the protection surface that the filter is treated that has to remain un-affected. My findings are that the detrimental frequencies would be 20-25 kHz. All other higher frequencies are better tolerated by the filter..

EXCELLENT - Many Thanks

Hey Steven, how much water do I put in after adding the dishwashing tablet?

thanks for the subtitles, I was able to watch the video from Italy. Unfortunately my VW Polo 1.4 TDI has a DPF/catalytic converter which is very difficult to remove, it requires hours of work and a mechanic, it would be interesting to be able to use a less effective substance for periodic cleaning , easy to use, for example through the differential pressure sensor tube, without dismantling anything, not even lambda probes and temperature sensors. I've seen videos of French people pouring liters of vinegar, resting for a few hours and starting the engine, I don't think they have too much chemical knowledge :) thanks and greetings from Italy

So what is the torque spec?

Pressure wash with good old hose water. Works great!

Think I could use this for a brake bleed ford2011?

I greet you Please some information if possible I own a bmw e60 520D n47 euro 5 177 hp year 2009 and I want to install 3.0 D injectors of the same generation, could they not work properly? My injectors have code 13537805428 and the ones I want to install are new original bmw code 13537796042. The car works perfectly but I have 297000 Thank you

Interesting in wondering which worked the best? I loved the idea of the video it was great.

Hello Steven, I am planning to do the DPF cleaning on my 2014 vehicle as follows: Step 1; Dishwashing tab 1:10 water for 30 min Step 2; Pool acid 1:4 water for 30 min Step 3; rinse with tap water. Any suggestions?

But the exchaust when hot will burn some off so you’d have to add heat as well , wouldn’t you

Thanks man. Your video saved me hundreds of dollars

Very good video and editing props

HG limescale remover seems to use the combination of phosporic and oxalic acids may be worth a try?

What is the torque on this vehicle?

Thanks for this. I have just moved to a 2017 euro6 diesel with all the gubbins (DPC+DEF+SCR), from a purely electromechanical 1997 diesel so am rapidly learning about a whole new world of computer-mediated anti-pollution systems! I was not aware that glowplugs were now important beyond starting, so thanks for that. Is this true on all cars? I read that at least Renault truck systems have a separate fuel injector in the exhaust before the DPC in order to raise the temp for regeneration. But obviously re-using the existing injectors and glowplug is cheaper and takes up no extra space, so maybe all cars do it this way? Do you know when this started? Since DPFs were fitted, or was it a later innovation after designers learned that they tend to clog up, at least for some types of usage. I found a glowplug DTC on my new van, so I've replaced it anyway (not _too_ painful on a Vivaro-B 1.6 R9M). Now I know that was well worth doing.

Has that one exhaust really done 374,000 km? Definitely got one's money's-worth there. None of mine have lasted more than 160,000

Insanely priced software. Such greed is appalling.

oven cleaner would've been a good test

Hello Steven, Thank you for making the video A very clear, step by step guide. My first time changing a belt so was a bit nervous/ paranoid 😲 Finished the job today, fantastic 🙂 many thanks!

😢❤

In the UK some people use oven cleaner.

I fitted a new intercooler with new rings on my 320d and its leaking oil and throwing black smoke. Im going to try your PTFE solution and see if it stops the leak

8:25 😂😂😂

Very few are mechanics nowadays. Instead, there's plenty of part changers out there. Thanks for the thoroughly detailed explanation.

most helpful well explained video ive seen thank you

Hi steven im so happy that you are coming to my birthday party from Tristan

Why didn't you put the needle valves in the ultrasonic cleaner machine to be cleaned, any particular reason?

Very nice but please wear safety glasses and chem. resistent gloves (Category III), preferably the long ones up to the elbow. Beside your old coverall i recommend also a chem. resistent skirt pr a proper raincoat (the heavy plastic type) During work you dont realize the small splashes which penetrate the textile webbing and come in contact with your skin. Even small amounts of chemicals are bad for your skin and ever person reacts different.

Now do a video of piston soak with dishwasher tablet and then a tour of alloy cleaner. Would it clean caulked piston rings? Or pcv valve

Great Video! Very helpful

England is the origin of English so our English trumps American English sorry 🤷‍♂️👍

Using a 7% oxalic acid solution to clean your diesel particulate filter (DPF) requires following the correct sequence of steps to achieve the best results and minimize the risk of damage. Your suggested process is generally correct, but let's refine it and provide clear steps: ### The correct sequence of actions: 1. **Primary DPF regeneration**: - Carry out active or forced regeneration to remove as much soot as possible. - This will help prepare the filter for chemical treatment. 2. **Use of 7% oxalic acid solution**: - Inject 7% oxalic acid solution into the DPF through the temperature or pressure sensor hole. - Let the solution work for 15-30 minutes to dissolve carbon and tar deposits. 3. **Washing with water**: - Rinse the filter thoroughly with plenty of water under pressure (do not exceed 3-4 bar) to remove acid residues and dissolved contaminants. - Make sure that all acid and contaminants are removed from the filter. 4. **DPF regeneration**: - Carry out a second regeneration to dry the filter and completely remove any remaining acid solution and decomposed contaminants. - This will help return the filter to full functionality. ### Additional recommendations: - **Safety**: Use protective gloves, glasses and clothing when working with acid. - **Ventilation**: Carry out work in a well-ventilated area or in the open air. - **Equipment**: Use specialized equipment for acid injection and water rinsing.

Thanks I cleaned my DPF using your suggestions. Caustic Soda, dishwasher tablets the pool acid at 1/4 dilution and got a stack of black sh!t out, not much orange ash though. Now I get no error codes and runs great. Cheers for that.

The injector is tightened with a torque wrench to 50 LB and you can put a thread lock . Just a bit ... Great job !

I very much enjoyed your video, one of the best & I was totally glued all through the process, can't wait to see the next video. ❤❤❤😊

Good day. Could you please tell me if it is possible to clean the diesel particulate filter (DPF) on a Passat B8 with an AdBlue system without removing it? How can this be done? Thank you.

What if just replace the new intercooler hose ? Will that help?

Heating things up will really speed up the reactions. Some chemicals don't work that great without it. TSP might give some interesting results too.

Goggles!!!!

Is parts cleaner OK for DPF's ? I've been using degreaser as a pre wash but wondered about parts cleaner. Love your work!

professional.

Hi Steven, I found a paper including the result that cleaning agent containing HCI reduces the purification performance of DOC. What do you think?

Please forgive me question as I'm not mechanic, but from where this fuel goes to testing tubes ? And what is this tubes disconnected and putted into the white canister. I don't get it....and how is engine running if fuel goes into testing tubes...is this some excess of the fuel ?

Excellent scientific and unbiased test. Suprising results.

How many grams of ash are allowed in the particulate filter volvo xc60 2.4 2012

Was it a Volvo v70 dpf?
