You are so correct. i wish I had my dpf removed on a Mercedes CDI 250 back in 2017. The dpf got blocked and pressure sensors triggered my engine warning light. I went all over the place to get it sorted and some idiot reset the error codes with a Snap IT. I trusted his advice when he told me to drive it down the motorway.

Just joke laws put in place no thanks mainly to Volvo and the Swedish government for bringing this idea and giving our stupid politicians another idiotic idea to push down our throats.
So true, my bmw dpf kept failing to regen due to it being so blocked up, on each attempt more smoke and not getting better, took it in for a dpf delete, bang on sorted, no more smoke for me and car runs happy as ever
What is the purpose of dpf. To burn cleaner. Well it does until it starts doing a regen. Then it all goes out the tail pipe. That's why you can't get the emissions checked while it's on regen. If a car runs more efficiently without dpf and gets better fuel mileage how is it dirtier?
At last I hear a man who makes sence, but not just about DPF, but about Hydrogen. Why is Hydrogen technology being shelved. Government needs to step in!!
It baffles me to think that with all the engineering technology we have today nobody's came up with a legal alternative to the DPF system? As for alternative fuels well there has been quite a few inventors that have made some ingenious creations such as free energy motors there's a guy is Australia whose figured out how to run his motorbike on water, unfortunately the ruling elites obviously don't want us having this sort of technology and will silence anybody who they feel are a threat to the energy industry these guys seriously have too much power
Got a 1.6 tdi a3 n the thing keeps going into limp mode because of the dpf 🤦🏼♂️ I’m now having to remove it and get the car remapped because it’s the only option left bearing in mind this is my first car and can have already forked out silly dough to have it sorted the first time round!
Sorry but if a single mom spends 4000£ on a diesel car to go down the road with the kids and then another mile or so, to go to work, she should be advised to go and buy a petrol car. No matter if there is a DPF or not on the car, the Diesel engine is not built for city-hopping anyway and spending money to have the DPF removed is just silly, when those money could have been spent, on buying a petrol engine car in the first place.
John Doe problem is no ones around to help her with a descion and do you think a second hand car dealt is going to say “no love you don’t want the one your intrested in buying” so in a perfect world yes these things should happen but in the real world it’s not the case. Could of would of should of is great in principle. What now as petrols are fitted with PPF (petrol particulate filters) now you can’t be one or the other without a stupid filter in the exhaust. Kind regards SA Tuning
@@MaxtuneOfficial Yes, i agree, if a dealer has sold her a diesel knowing her driving pattern, then he is to blame. Luckily for her, i suspect that it will be quite some years before she will be able to buy a car with a PPF for 4000£ though :) In reality a lady with that kind of driving pattern, should ideally buy an electric car, as she will also struggle to keep the battery from going flat if she does frequent short trips anyway :)
I couldn't agree more, mines had 5 forced regeneration in 6 months, twice a week i give it a good long run, it still sods about, its a damn joke, only option is delete.
Had the issue with my a3, always had issues! Even with long journeys. Gutted it and been perfect ever since! I can see the principle of a DPF but it burns it off sooner or later anyway which is still dumping it into the atmosphere. Sure we all have it to come with the new petrol particle filters too
Hey Ben , who did remapped your A3 after DPF delete...Did you get EGR delete too? And if you did, was it just done by software or you get the blanking plate for it?
@@easybaby8547 hi! So I bought a gutted DPF off eBay, and my remap Bloke mapped the DPF and EGR function out without any blanks etc. my mum now owns the car and does short runs with no issues at all and now on 170k miles. The person who mapped it has moved away and doesn’t do the mapping anymore. Hope this helps
Was thinking of getting a diesel Corolla and then the owner said the DPF was clogged up. This and that happened then finally stumbled upon your video. I'm deleting mine for sure
I have big problems with my DPF and want to remove it. But with the remove i want to install a water methanol injection system. I read, that it produce less particulate matter and reduce NOX emissions. Has anyone installed a water methanol injection system and noticed less smoke?
Removed mine last february had mot on friday sailed through didnt even mention it so all these people saying its noticeable on an mot load of bollocks car runs like a dream
Ships use what they call 6 oil. Look it up its tar they use for fuel. The ships that bring the dpf systems in burn enough fuel and put enough emissions in the air to make up the difference and more then the vehicles would without them. I forgot the precious metals they had to mine and the process in a plant to make the dpf systems. What about those emissions.
Had diesels since 1992, not buying another one. My partners 2016 Ford 1.6 tdci has been great though, but she is always doing long trip. It's on 105K so due a new dpf.
I've an 2010 2.0 Cdti insignia, turbo went at 199k due to a small problem I was ignoring and it clogged the dpf filter so bad as the turbo was full of oil . However , I was always driving the car on the motorway , fresh oil every 5k and always driven hard . No smoke with the dpf on. Took the dpf off and still zero smoke . If your car is good it won't smoke , end of.
I got my car at 40k miles the dpf filter comes on every 300 miles, it passes emissions tests, my last mot the results was 0.2 . I've just spend £40 on fuel while we have no diesel just to clear my dpf, my minds made up what to do now, mean while the rich are spending fortunes going into space, fuming I is man ... us nice get batterys they get jet engine's, ? Weird .
My dads a4 Tdi had it done because he couldn’t find another one (this was when they weren’t really able to be cleaned) Edit: has still passed its mots every single time since 2009
Hello fella, I've got a 2011 diesel forester that doesnt lose a drop of oil or water and the subaru mechanic said I've got a good car. It doesn't give off any black smoke either as the chrome exhaust tips never change colour. I don't drive it mad but I do stay in third gear around town to keep it working that bit harder than it would in fourth gear. What I would like to know is that how do I obtain the subaru rumble without removing dpf or do you think i could remove dpf and hide the fact with a good tune up. Any advice welcome.
Kia carens and now sportage issues. My Mercedes’ sprinter 2008 311 with 180000 miles runs perfect and passes clean. Had work after oil level started to rise. Perfect after tuned etc😜
Got mercedes nox sensor need to replacement £900.changed year ago already.and they don't have it 5 weeks waiting time. Disgusting dashboard saying after 400 miles car not start possible 😒
Sa tuning i bought a car last year Vauxhall insignia with remap and dpf gutted Its always black smoked and cars behind me flash and slow down lots Is That normal
PowerLifter LeZ to be honest it could be number of things a small boost leak will cause black smoke, a leaking injector also so it may not be just a bad map you would never see the smoke with mechanicle issues if a DPF is in place but conversely the DPF would become blocked very quickly with these faults too so you would only see them once removed, these issues may have been there it’s just as important to look at why it’s become blocked as well as removing it. Cheers
All of this diesel dpf, def shit means more spending on diesel engine, might as well i stick with Gasoline engine , less problems no issues with engine restart.
BMW Programming & Encoding the problem is now all gasoline engines are having GPF or PPF fitted to the them so a particulate filter for petrols that will fails and cause problems also now so petrol or diesel are as bad as each other now!
@@MaxtuneOfficial true, but for two engines of good condition and similar power, the gasoline (petrol) engine should put out less particulate matter, unless it's a GDI (petrol) engine. Of course, the G/PPF is probably sized accordingly, and so there's no real mileage to maintenance interval gain. Better perhaps to build smaller gas/petrol-electric hybrids that use smaller engines that warm up quickly, and an appropriately sized battery pack to power electric motors, which should be way more efficient in a city car, because electric motors have instant torque. The small engine powers a generator which keeps the batteries charged, which could also power a heating coil for the particulate filter and the catalytic convertor, which would speed up the warm-up process of the emissions controls that rely on being at temperature to do their job. That would also act to speed up the warmup of the engine.
@@MaxtuneOfficial Like everything with cars, it's all about making them OTT to work on... look at an engine bay in a mk8 golf over a mk 4, they've crammed in so much shit it's almost laughable. The add in DPF's and GPF's ect along with all the electronics, sensors and other quite frankly unnecessary shit all built to fail within 5 years (can't sell new cars if the old ones all work) with the intention of pushing to all electric. This is great, no noisy cars, no exhaust fumes blah blah... Thing is, when petrol/diesel is pushed out entirely most of the population can't afford 50k for an EV.
Most people don't understand where , how or why these systems were forced on to the consumer.. It was a just think of how much money has been made on these systems when the the people who make them can't even fix them. The solution widely practiced is only to replace them. HELLO PEOPLE, here in the states these systems have caused fairly good sized trucking companies to fold and or go bankrupt do to brand new equipment with these rejin systems failing and when you have 80/90 % down time.... Your customers are not getting there goods. It's a rip off people.
I've got an adblue fault on my car at the moment, very tempted to get the adblue 'solution' from a local mapper... Phoned a few local garages as well and none of them were interested in even taking a look. Basically told me to go to audi, the stuffs a fucking nightmare! The only thing that puts me off is what happens down the line when I sell the car or trade it in? Will I end up getting fucked if they find out? Or just play dumb? My car is on PCP at the minute but I think I'm going to buy it out at the end anyway so this problem would be... far down the line lol.
Hi mate Got a 2009 Xj jaguar 2.7td..want to delete the dpf..can u do it for me..and aprox what cost..will the removal cause damage elsewhere in the future. My car has done 80,000 miles with full service I only do short journeys all in town.. Cheers
I had a 2006 e320cdi with lots of dpf issues to the point I just had to get rid of the car. I now have a petrol car that is so thirsty and costs me loads in fuel. Now I would love to get a big diesel again but worried about basically just clogging up due to not doing the mileage if I was to get one and get a dpf delete will it cause me any other issues anywhere else? I literally don't do high mileage so would be worried of my car clogging up but want a big diesel again
A 1.0L Daihatsu Charade will achieve 60-70mpg. There is your solution. Your pride is the only thing holding you back. Do not waste my time with such nonsense questions.
great video i have a peugeot partner van and i have had lots of problems with its dpf. the thing is i run my own business as a mobile valeter and i do lots of short journeys and i cant forking out for dpf cleaning just had it cleaned and dont know how long its going to last till it blocks again its a constant worry, was looking into getting a delete but how do you go about getting an mot ? would it pass with a dpf delete? no van no business for me
I couldn't agree with you more makes perfect sense just think of the amount of cars scraped because they have egr/dpf problems but are perfectly good otherwise that's wasteful and that's never a good thing
I agree my car is remapped Audi A3 2.0tdi and always chucks a little bit of smoke out anyway and then when itself regions for a little bit It will chuck out a lot of whitish blue Smoke then stops and never does it again until it's next region which is pretty much every day 🤬 so also using more fuel when doing this
I had a 2005 renault megane,it didnt have a dpf, but my 2012 vauxhall corsa has, and it was blocked i cant afford £500 to have it replaced so what should i do mmmmmmm
Hello. I am Alex from Portugal Here's my story. I bought a VW Caddy 1.6 TDI 75 hp Bluemotion from November 2012. I bought it from VW dealership and was owned by the dealership. It had 102.000 km 63379 miles... After i bought it i made 60.000 km 37000 miles and it was fairly good, no failures no problems what so ever... now last week the EGR valve failed.... and guess waht is comming to fail next?... DPF filter if i dont take care of the EGR, and even if i do take care of the egr the dpf will fail, its just a matter of time. My mechanic told me that he can solve it but it will cost about 560 € about 500 pounds. And also that the new EGR valve may last 1 year or maybe less. So i suggested why not to take of the egr valve, and also the dpf filter? Here in Portugal it isnt ilegal to do it, and the car will pass in the mot. I am not searching for a tunning solution to get a faster car, not at all, cause i use the car to do my job, but i cannot let my car to ruin my finances... nor can i keep buying and selling a car everytime this issue happens. I drive everyday about 50 km at a speed of about 120 km/h wich converted is 31 miles at an averege speed of 74 miles/h. I take good care of my caddy has i use the top oils/filters and fluids, to keep engine ealthy. Even like this the car's engine isnt capable to be reliable. So my question is, can this model VW Caddy 1.6 TDI 75 Hp Bluemotion be removed the EGR and the DPF filter permanently? Thank you very much for your attention. When we think how much emissions you have to trow to the atmosfere to search for platinum, to fabricate dpf filters, to fit them, are we relly being friends to the environment? Thanks
Hi yes, we can remove and delete the EGR and the DPF systems permanently therefore you can never have a problem with the ever again as they don't exist. Kind regards SA Tuning
Finally someone speaking some sense !! I've just had a DPF replaced on my transit connect at a cost of £450. Then just 130 miles later all warning lights back on!!!!!! Cutting a very long story short... The garage now tell me my Fuel Vaporiser is now faulty along with the Fuel vapour fuel valve (small fuel pump that feeds the vaporiser) which will cost yet another £500. To top this, the garage are unable to confirm having these two parts replaced and paying another £500 will cure the fault. My question therefore is.... As I've just replaced the DPF and it is practically brand new, would this have to be cut open and the inners removed or could I possibly find an old one to have the guts removed and then put on my van when the system is deleted? Hope this make sense? Finally where are you based?
Turbo man Turbo Man hi There, yes in a word!! You can find a used old one as long as it’s the right part and we can fit that one and fit it to the car along with our DPF delete software and problem solved! For life!! Kind regards SA Tuning
Sounds like you'd be better off taking it to someone qualified for a proper diagnosis. Since the dpf was already changed and it didn't fix your issue deleting it is unlikely to either. Both of those parts you listed could be tested.
There is another problem all cars with dpf filters are at a very low road tax and some pay no rd tax due to there clean burning engine ,so removing the dpf would also be tax fraud
All the dpf market like electric car, is a big scam! Especially for vehicles meant to be rode in town ( small city cars). Should have the option to legaly remove them and update the registration to euro4, and do the emmission tests like for euro4 or make the dpf cheaper instead of discounts for electric cars who polute more to be produced.
And I say this, because I have a dpf car used mainly in town and sometimes is regenerating every few days making lots of smoke, no errors, no fault on the car...just nornal town clogging. The ideal function of dpf is to colect all the ashes from town trips and eject on autoband, but like this guy said, we dont live in ideal world and driving conditions are not like a test bench ( confirmed with start and stop idiocy). I feel better driving an dpf off car with no smoke than was doing with dpf and making huge smoke after me with often regens.
So if I was to delete a dpf would it cause black smoke or if kept upto date with servicing and stuff be absolutely fine asking for a friend for off road use 😂
Whether is is my old 4x4 puffing out a bit of smoke all the time or a modern vehicle puffing it out is a 10 minute regen on a motorway it doesn't matter,the same amount of emissions still has to come out.also they programme the modern cars to belch it out on long country roads and motorways. Not in cities and towns.dont think the government's and car manufacturers have thought this through. If it was the other way about (regening in a built up area ) there would be an uproar.

So true, my bmw dpf kept failing to regen due to it being so blocked up, on each attempt more smoke and not getting better, took it in for a dpf delete, bang on sorted, no more smoke for me and car runs happy as ever
Did u find much increase in performance or fuel MPG?
@@waynebinuk yeah better on both, mpg was so much better
@@deana6556 cheers fella, my 530d is going in Monday for bypass and remap £350 👍
@@waynebinuk how is running buddy?
What is the purpose of dpf. To burn cleaner. Well it does until it starts doing a regen. Then it all goes out the tail pipe. That's why you can't get the emissions checked while it's on regen. If a car runs more efficiently without dpf and gets better fuel mileage how is it dirtier?
Everything you said is true true true. I had my DPF removed after failure. My car runs better than ever .
At last I hear a man who makes sence, but not just about DPF, but about Hydrogen. Why is Hydrogen technology being shelved. Government needs to step in!!
It baffles me to think that with all the engineering technology we have today nobody's came up with a legal alternative to the DPF system? As for alternative fuels well there has been quite a few inventors that have made some ingenious creations such as free energy motors there's a guy is Australia whose figured out how to run his motorbike on water, unfortunately the ruling elites obviously don't want us having this sort of technology and will silence anybody who they feel are a threat to the energy industry these guys seriously have too much power
So true I didn't know someone had created that. The global governments and suppliers wouod be in turmoil lol be good though
I agree there should be alternative to the crapy dpf. But buying into perpetual motion crap? You are truly something
Well said 7 mins is that a shooting star to your right my left lol
That was a DPF been thrown out of a happy customers car.
@@alanfurlong-drummer4419 wtf 🤣🤣🤣
Great video mate, I totally agree with you, have dpf issue at the moment on a Ford transi custom 2.2tdci 14 plate and it’s really pissing me off.😖😡😩
Got a 1.6 tdi a3 n the thing keeps going into limp mode because of the dpf 🤦🏼♂️ I’m now having to remove it and get the car remapped because it’s the only option left bearing in mind this is my first car and can have already forked out silly dough to have it sorted the first time round!
Or you could take it so someone qualified and actually fix the issue. It's not that complex.
Sorry but if a single mom spends 4000£ on a diesel car to go down the road with the kids and then another mile or so, to go to work, she should be advised to go and buy a petrol car. No matter if there is a DPF or not on the car, the Diesel engine is not built for city-hopping anyway and spending money to have the DPF removed is just silly, when those money could have been spent, on buying a petrol engine car in the first place.
John Doe problem is no ones around to help her with a descion and do you think a second hand car dealt is going to say “no love you don’t want the one your intrested in buying” so in a perfect world yes these things should happen but in the real world it’s not the case. Could of would of should of is great in principle. What now as petrols are fitted with PPF (petrol particulate filters) now you can’t be one or the other without a stupid filter in the exhaust. Kind regards SA Tuning
@@MaxtuneOfficial Yes, i agree, if a dealer has sold her a diesel knowing her driving pattern, then he is to blame.
Luckily for her, i suspect that it will be quite some years before she will be able to buy a car with a PPF for 4000£ though :)
In reality a lady with that kind of driving pattern, should ideally buy an electric car, as she will also struggle to keep the battery from going flat if she does frequent short trips anyway :)
Overall will the vehicle be ok? Need it done on a caddy but not looking for anymore hassle down the line
Well done m8 ,i will definitely remove my DPF
I couldn't agree more, mines had 5 forced regeneration in 6 months, twice a week i give it a good long run, it still sods about, its a damn joke, only option is delete.
Let’s see here 4-6k for a new dpf or get rid of it completely tune it clean runs better then it was straight from the factory Thays a fact.
Had the issue with my a3, always had issues! Even with long journeys. Gutted it and been perfect ever since! I can see the principle of a DPF but it burns it off sooner or later anyway which is still dumping it into the atmosphere. Sure we all have it to come with the new petrol particle filters too
Hey Ben , who did remapped your A3 after DPF delete...Did you get EGR delete too?
And if you did, was it just done by software or you get the blanking plate for it?
@@easybaby8547 hi! So I bought a gutted DPF off eBay, and my remap Bloke mapped the DPF and EGR function out without any blanks etc. my mum now owns the car and does short runs with no issues at all and now on 170k miles. The person who mapped it has moved away and doesn’t do the mapping anymore. Hope this helps
@@james-3778 Hi thanks for that.. Does yours smoke at all? when boosting or idling and whats its like for emissions test ?
Basicaly unless you are using a motorway to commute or use motorways weekly, BUY A PETROL CAR!
Was thinking of getting a diesel Corolla and then the owner said the DPF was clogged up. This and that happened then finally stumbled upon your video. I'm deleting mine for sure
I have big problems with my DPF and want to remove it. But with the remove i want to install a water methanol injection system. I read, that it produce less particulate matter and reduce NOX emissions. Has anyone installed a water methanol injection system and noticed less smoke?
Don't forgett the huge cargoships spewing dangerous exhausts, waaay worse than planes
The most sensible option in my eyes is delete remove
Excellent informative video, thank you.
You're welcome!
I am a single mum, expenses hitting the roof got my dpf removed has hardly any power left in my sharan so now i need it remapped
Everything you said is spot on.
Removed mine last february had mot on friday sailed through didnt even mention it so all these people saying its noticeable on an mot load of bollocks car runs like a dream
It passed with dpf delete? Do you have any back boxes removed as well?
Ships use what they call 6 oil. Look it up its tar they use for fuel. The ships that bring the dpf systems in burn enough fuel and put enough emissions in the air to make up the difference and more then the vehicles would without them. I forgot the precious metals they had to mine and the process in a plant to make the dpf systems. What about those emissions.
Had diesels since 1992, not buying another one. My partners 2016 Ford 1.6 tdci has been great though, but she is always doing long trip. It's on 105K so due a new dpf.
Well said! 👌🏻👍🏼
I've an 2010 2.0 Cdti insignia, turbo went at 199k due to a small problem I was ignoring and it clogged the dpf filter so bad as the turbo was full of oil .
However , I was always driving the car on the motorway , fresh oil every 5k and always driven hard . No smoke with the dpf on.
Took the dpf off and still zero smoke .
If your car is good it won't smoke , end of.
Brilliant rant, very well said
I got my car at 40k miles the dpf filter comes on every 300 miles, it passes emissions tests, my last mot the results was 0.2 .
I've just spend £40 on fuel while we have no diesel just to clear my dpf, my minds made up what to do now, mean while the rich are spending fortunes going into space, fuming I is man ... us nice get batterys they get jet engine's, ? Weird .
Very well explained makes sense 👏👍👌
My dads a4 Tdi had it done because he couldn’t find another one (this was when they weren’t really able to be cleaned)
Edit: has still passed its mots every single time since 2009
I think we need to plant more trees
Or to get the People in africa to stop burning the trees down like retards. They dont understand or dont give a fuck 🙃
thank you for clarification. a good explanation
Hello fella, I've got a 2011 diesel forester that doesnt lose a drop of oil or water and the subaru mechanic said I've got a good car. It doesn't give off any black smoke either as the chrome exhaust tips never change colour. I don't drive it mad but I do stay in third gear around town to keep it working that bit harder than it would in fourth gear. What I would like to know is that how do I obtain the subaru rumble without removing dpf or do you think i could remove dpf and hide the fact with a good tune up. Any advice welcome.
Kia carens and now sportage issues.
My Mercedes’ sprinter 2008 311 with 180000 miles runs perfect and passes clean. Had work after oil level started to rise. Perfect after tuned etc😜
Got mercedes nox sensor need to replacement £900.changed year ago already.and they don't have it 5 weeks waiting time. Disgusting dashboard saying after 400 miles car not start possible 😒
Sa tuning i bought a car last year Vauxhall insignia with remap and dpf gutted
Its always black smoked and cars behind me flash and slow down lots
Is That normal
PowerLifter LeZ sounds ideal to me
If its smoking that bad it's got a bad map on it... take it somewhere decent and get it mapped again
PowerLifter LeZ to be honest it could be number of things a small boost leak will cause black smoke, a leaking injector also so it may not be just a bad map you would never see the smoke with mechanicle issues if a DPF is in place but conversely the DPF would become blocked very quickly with these faults too so you would only see them once removed, these issues may have been there it’s just as important to look at why it’s become blocked as well as removing it. Cheers
Companies obviously know this and they want you to get a new car when DPF clogged
great video thank you
I laugh in the faces of those whose think the EPA care about the environment here in America. Follow the money.
What about the fact that dpfs even in a working state prolong the dumping of the same amount soot ? Lol
All of this diesel dpf, def shit means more spending on diesel engine, might as well i stick with Gasoline engine , less problems no issues with engine restart.
BMW Programming & Encoding the problem is now all gasoline engines are having GPF or PPF fitted to the them so a particulate filter for petrols that will fails and cause problems also now so petrol or diesel are as bad as each other now!
@@MaxtuneOfficial true, but for two engines of good condition and similar power, the gasoline (petrol) engine should put out less particulate matter, unless it's a GDI (petrol) engine. Of course, the G/PPF is probably sized accordingly, and so there's no real mileage to maintenance interval gain. Better perhaps to build smaller gas/petrol-electric hybrids that use smaller engines that warm up quickly, and an appropriately sized battery pack to power electric motors, which should be way more efficient in a city car, because electric motors have instant torque. The small engine powers a generator which keeps the batteries charged, which could also power a heating coil for the particulate filter and the catalytic convertor, which would speed up the warm-up process of the emissions controls that rely on being at temperature to do their job. That would also act to speed up the warmup of the engine.
@@MaxtuneOfficial Like everything with cars, it's all about making them OTT to work on... look at an engine bay in a mk8 golf over a mk 4, they've crammed in so much shit it's almost laughable. The add in DPF's and GPF's ect along with all the electronics, sensors and other quite frankly unnecessary shit all built to fail within 5 years (can't sell new cars if the old ones all work) with the intention of pushing to all electric. This is great, no noisy cars, no exhaust fumes blah blah... Thing is, when petrol/diesel is pushed out entirely most of the population can't afford 50k for an EV.
Most people don't understand where , how or why these systems were forced on to the consumer.. It was a just think of how much money has been made on these systems when the the people who make them can't even fix them. The solution widely practiced is only to replace them. HELLO PEOPLE, here in the states these systems have caused fairly good sized trucking companies to fold and or go bankrupt do to brand new equipment with these rejin systems failing and when you have 80/90 % down time.... Your customers are not getting there goods. It's a rip off people.
This is what we are saying that the DPF is an utter joke and so our customers getting a DPF removal and delete from us are getting their goods! Cheers
I've got an adblue fault on my car at the moment, very tempted to get the adblue 'solution' from a local mapper...
Phoned a few local garages as well and none of them were interested in even taking a look. Basically told me to go to audi, the stuffs a fucking nightmare!
The only thing that puts me off is what happens down the line when I sell the car or trade it in? Will I end up getting fucked if they find out? Or just play dumb? My car is on PCP at the minute but I think I'm going to buy it out at the end anyway so this problem would be... far down the line lol.
It costs a lot of electricity to make hydrogen...most of the electricity comes from fossil fuels...
Those fuels don't come from fossils....
@@deanmcclaughlin914 in the US, 60% of electricity comes from fossil fuels. It takes electricity from fossil fuels to make hydrogen
@@userasdf1546 I was referring the fact oil does not come from fossils and bones and therefore is not a fossil fuel. Its a lie my friend
Great video mate
Hi mate
Got a 2009
Xj jaguar 2.7td..want to delete the dpf..can u do it for me..and aprox what cost..will the removal cause damage elsewhere in the future. My car has done 80,000 miles with full service
I only do short journeys all in town..
Cheers
I had a 2006 e320cdi with lots of dpf issues to the point I just had to get rid of the car. I now have a petrol car that is so thirsty and costs me loads in fuel. Now I would love to get a big diesel again but worried about basically just clogging up due to not doing the mileage if I was to get one and get a dpf delete will it cause me any other issues anywhere else? I literally don't do high mileage so would be worried of my car clogging up but want a big diesel again
A 1.0L Daihatsu Charade will achieve 60-70mpg. There is your solution.
Your pride is the only thing holding you back. Do not waste my time with such nonsense questions.
I only drive mine in Mexico
Instead of adding adblue they should be adding HHO into the mix 1 less smoke 2 more power 3 best of all keep DPF and Engine clean
what do you charge to do the delete with the physical removal already done???
If I take the dpf do I need to remove the egr as well ? Does one affect the other ?
great video i have a peugeot partner van and i have had lots of problems with its dpf. the thing is i run my own business as a mobile valeter and i do lots of short journeys and i cant forking out for dpf cleaning just had it cleaned and dont know how long its going to last till it blocks again its a constant worry, was looking into getting a delete but how do you go about getting an mot ? would it pass with a dpf delete? no van no business for me
@Cups I had the internals of the dpf ripped out and put it back on, you will need a mechanic to pass it though
@Cups pass the mot
Where can i get a dpf delete on a new Hilux?
I couldn't agree with you more makes perfect sense just think of the amount of cars scraped because they have egr/dpf problems but are perfectly good otherwise that's wasteful and that's never a good thing
I agree my car is remapped Audi A3 2.0tdi and always chucks a little bit of smoke out anyway and then when itself regions for a little bit It will chuck out a lot of whitish blue Smoke then stops and never does it again until it's next region which is pretty much every day 🤬 so also using more fuel when doing this
What year is it.. and is it a PD or CR?
I had a 2005 renault megane,it didnt have a dpf, but my 2012 vauxhall corsa has, and it was blocked i cant afford £500 to have it replaced so what should i do mmmmmmm
Hello.
I am Alex from Portugal
Here's my story. I bought a VW Caddy 1.6 TDI 75 hp Bluemotion from November 2012.
I bought it from VW dealership and was owned by the dealership. It had 102.000 km 63379 miles...
After i bought it i made 60.000 km 37000 miles and it was fairly good, no failures no problems what so ever... now last week the EGR valve failed.... and guess waht is comming to fail next?... DPF filter if i dont take care of the EGR, and even if i do take care of the egr the dpf will fail, its just a matter of time.
My mechanic told me that he can solve it but it will cost about 560 € about 500 pounds. And also that the new EGR valve may last 1 year or maybe less.
So i suggested why not to take of the egr valve, and also the dpf filter? Here in Portugal it isnt ilegal to do it, and the car will pass in the mot.
I am not searching for a tunning solution to get a faster car, not at all, cause i use the car to do my job, but i cannot let my car to ruin my finances... nor can i keep buying and selling a car everytime this issue happens.
I drive everyday about 50 km at a speed of about 120 km/h wich converted is 31 miles at an averege speed of 74 miles/h.
I take good care of my caddy has i use the top oils/filters and fluids, to keep engine ealthy. Even like this the car's engine isnt capable to be reliable.
So my question is, can this model VW Caddy 1.6 TDI 75 Hp Bluemotion be removed the EGR and the DPF filter permanently?
Thank you very much for your attention.
When we think how much emissions you have to trow to the atmosfere to search for platinum, to fabricate dpf filters, to fit them, are we relly being friends to the environment?
Thanks
Hi yes, we can remove and delete the EGR and the DPF systems permanently therefore you can never have a problem with the ever again as they don't exist. Kind regards SA Tuning
@@MaxtuneOfficial Thank you for your response.
Next wednesday the VW will be submited to the "procedure" ;) hopefuly it will be ok.
Finally someone speaking some sense !! I've just had a DPF replaced on my transit connect at a cost of £450. Then just 130 miles later all warning lights back on!!!!!! Cutting a very long story short... The garage now tell me my Fuel Vaporiser is now faulty along with the Fuel vapour fuel valve (small fuel pump that feeds the vaporiser) which will cost yet another £500. To top this, the garage are unable to confirm having these two parts replaced and paying another £500 will cure the fault. My question therefore is.... As I've just replaced the DPF and it is practically brand new, would this have to be cut open and the inners removed or could I possibly find an old one to have the guts removed and then put on my van when the system is deleted? Hope this make sense? Finally where are you based?
Turbo man Turbo Man hi There, yes in a word!! You can find a used old one as long as it’s the right part and we can fit that one and fit it to the car along with our DPF delete software and problem solved! For life!! Kind regards SA Tuning
Just delete it mate
Sounds like you'd be better off taking it to someone qualified for a proper diagnosis. Since the dpf was already changed and it didn't fix your issue deleting it is unlikely to either. Both of those parts you listed could be tested.
Yes mate u are 100% right .well done
There is another problem all cars with dpf filters are at a very low road tax and some pay no rd tax due to there clean burning engine ,so removing the dpf would also be tax fraud
Who gives a fuck??
I agree with Mongman..... they get more than enough from us we've always been as easy target
Whats your opinion on removing the egr too?
If your doing the dpf do that too
All the dpf market like electric car, is a big scam! Especially for vehicles meant to be rode in town ( small city cars). Should have the option to legaly remove them and update the registration to euro4, and do the emmission tests like for euro4 or make the dpf cheaper instead of discounts for electric cars who polute more to be produced.
And I say this, because I have a dpf car used mainly in town and sometimes is regenerating every few days making lots of smoke, no errors, no fault on the car...just nornal town clogging. The ideal function of dpf is to colect all the ashes from town trips and eject on autoband, but like this guy said, we dont live in ideal world and driving conditions are not like a test bench ( confirmed with start and stop idiocy). I feel better driving an dpf off car with no smoke than was doing with dpf and making huge smoke after me with often regens.
Plus fuel efficiency improved by removing unnecesarry regens and injection
So if I was to delete a dpf would it cause black smoke or if kept upto date with servicing and stuff be absolutely fine asking for a friend for off road use 😂
Can I ask I have a 2010 ibiza with a DPF. If I remove the DPF and have it mapped it should pass the smoke test you think?
DPF's killed the family diesel .
Where u based mate I want mine doing as I’ve had it clean before but dint last long removing dpf Passat b6 2006
The Conqueror Beast hi there stansted airport in Bishop’s Stortford cheers
Do u have experience with a T6 2CXEB van (EGR + DPF + AbBlue(SCR))OFF ?
Whether is is my old 4x4 puffing out a bit of smoke all the time or a modern vehicle puffing it out is a 10 minute regen on a motorway it doesn't matter,the same amount of emissions still has to come out.also they programme the modern cars to belch it out on long country roads and motorways. Not in cities and towns.dont think the government's and car manufacturers have thought this through. If it was the other way about (regening in a built up area ) there would be an uproar.
Hello . Its happened to my new BMW . I only use it off road . Where to find you please ? Where are you based ? I live in wales and work in london . 😡
Pure sense 👌
