Greetings from Greece 🇬🇷! In our country, there are many fans of tuned trucks! We really appreciate and support your job! Keep up the good work! Once a Scania driver, always a Scania driver!
Can you bring back your intoer cab light i love mine in my bmw 118 m sports mine came with car I colude see @Truckertime rock the blue and if evry you come rotherham put red ligjts on
I drives a 23 Scania V8 R770 myself . Probably my most favorite truck I’ve driven yet since I settled back in Ireland. Before that I was driving a kenworth in the US for few years and a peterbilt road train in the Aussie outback along with a bit of EU driving from England to Poland/Germany. I actually miss those trucks but I’m planning to retire with my lovely scania as my days of international driving are well behind me. Im too old for all that Craic now.
Geez, Ireland's just a tad different to our outback. Seems that coming here and driving around Australia is an Irish rite of passage. I love the Irish probably because my great grandfather was Irish. Cheers
I drove Kenworths in western Australia too driving road trains I only knew 2 guys in Leonora who had peterbuilts his name was Rex I think and the company was dessert sands I wonder if you worked for him? Anyway I’m back in NZ driving a 2023 r620 I love it we pull 54-58t and it pulls it so easy but I do wish I was in a 770s or a r770 I’m trying to convince my boss to buy one next time
Hi Tim, first time watching your channel, I have to say you are enthusiastic and I like your humour. I could hear the difference with the engine re-map. Sounds like the Greek connection shifted the injection timing quite a bit. While the smoke is not tooooo much I would suggest that you monitor the engine oil more closely for combustion contamination. You may find that you might have to change the oil more frequently. A tell tale will be fuel consumption increase. But I have known engines tunes to increase HP and reduce fuel consumption at the same time. Anyway best of British to you!
Are you planning to visit Finland and the Power Truck Show? It is an international exhibition and according to the latest information, there are just over 500 trucks registered for the exhibition.
Hey Trucker Tim just wanna say I really love your content I must say you inspired me alot, I was never really A Scania Fan but now I am...Tuning Trucks are very epic & your truck sounds amazing…I Grew up with mostly learning about Cummins & Caterpillar Engines...I am Currently 20 Working As An Engineer/ Mechanic In Both Trucks & Big Boats...Big Up I'm All The Way From The Caribbean Trinidad and Tobago 🇹🇹...Unfortunately where im from I gotta be 25 to drive Trucks but at 21 I can drive Single Axle Trucks...Well Trucker Tim..Keep filming great content and hopefully 1 day I'll meet u in person...💯
Thing is Smoke means unburned fuel. You’d have to get it rolling rd to actually see if it has more power. Because unburned fuel will have a different exhaust resonance. Personally I’d have to be careful doing that everywhere, it could go against you & result in fines from the Police. Many people think it’s cool, but it isn’t a good tune if it could cause trouble because many people will deem it bad to. Children suffer from asthma etc could cause you big trouble, Greece isn’t the U.K.. Love you Tim, go careful matey
Absolutely correct. Poor tune, overfueling, black smoke is incomplete combustion. Diesel is a good degreaser, so long term probably wont do the bores and rings any good.
@@gregshearer423 the limit for the all big truck engines is cooling. That's why the marine versions in boats has almost double the power since they have unlimited cooling from the seawater
@@Swedishchef11 actually your wrong, most if not all marine equivalent versions of truck diesels are rated for lower power because they need to be reliable at 100% load at that power for extended periods of time. most truck diesels only use 100% of power for maybe 20 mins every hour and thats more towards 40% in modern lorries which will limit power depending on the airbag pressures (to measure weight) with the scania s series doing this. This is why down south when they fitted volvo penta 750 d16's to the marina ships they kept grenading. Because the engines arnt designed to hold that full power for 10 hours a day. They ended up down tuning the engines and since then they have been reliable.
Did you go to Truckstar festival in Assen this weekend? I spotted you going down the A28 between Staphorst and Zwolle at arround 11:30 AM. It is an eye catcher to see your lorry go down the road. You probably did not see me but I was driving a Blue and white Sprinter van.
Black smoke is amazing, we're getting are VW TURRAN re-mapped to go a lot faster and also gunna chuck out black smoke on the 15th August can't wait gunna be good
Nice one - I really love people that think its smart to undo the changes made to clean up trucks just so they can laugh at the black clouds of shite coming from the exhaust. Do you think about pedestrians, people behind you that get a cabin full of diesel smoke, and that you are throwing particulates into the air that are proven to give people all sorts of chest problems? Pretty sure the DVSA will be all over you once you have covered their car in black soot on your way past.
That was the first truck I ever drove in the late 70s. It had the Detroit 8V-71 two stroke engine. Fabulous truck it was. To this day I always wonder where it is now. I drive a R770 scania now but I’ll always have a soft spot for that scammell
Can’t believe I finally seen last Saturday you were going north on the M5 by Gloucestershire services and got flashes from you but not seen it in a video lol
£1.499/litre for diesel??? Holy crap, we're paying the equivalent of £1.00 here in Australia. I've got a 12 litre MAN 24-420 Motorhome and want to give it a better exhaust sound. Love your videos even though I haven't heard of DVSA. Cheers
Hi Trucker Tim Love your videos they are really good entertainment.👍🏼 How about making a Trucker Tim playlist on spotify with all your favorite tracks? Looking forward to the next video😃 Many greetings from Denmark
Scania engine is clanky…our V8 was clanky even after compressor changed and engine rebuilded. Now we use MAN and it’s like day and night difference 😎Also proper tune should not smoke that much

I feel like Tim is going to get another DVSA letter again about the smoke
Not to sure what smoke your talking about 😅
@@DP_Airsoft 😅😅
Bloody obvious now, its all on here.

As a Greek I was not surprised the map came from Greece haha. A lot of people are tuning their vehicles here. Especailly motorcycles

I can already hear the DVSA furiously typing their next letter to you 🤣
6:45 where can I get my own mini scania?

Didn't anyone notice the small little backfire at 15:05 but seeesssshh loads of smoke, just how we like it.
Coming in from America just found your channel and I love scania trucks sound so different and cool
Awesome Tim!!!!
Mr Joyce behind you!!!
Congratulations👏As a Swede you make me proud 🇸🇪

It’s quite normal to run them a bit richer when mapping them it helps keep the cylinders cooler doesn’t make it a bad map at all

@@ItzChaza well, I have only worked at the Scania plant for 18 years but I have apparently zero knowledge about their truck and marine engines..
Greece have some amazing Scanias!!
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ Love.
It love it Neil in Stone market Suffolk.
Loved to speak to you at Assen Tim! Hopefully my bike will be on the next assen vlog, the Gazelle Flügel Edtion🤠
Awesome content as always Tim great to see you and Shaun together you are a great double act hope you have a great weekend at assen
Thanks Garry, weekend has been amazing!
@@TruckerTim your welcome Tim can’t wait for tomorrows vid

We need more Leo and josh on the vids love the vids please keep them up they make my day x
Shouldn't be blowing out black smoke like that
there are some crusaders in greece,but were mainly military like that one
Loving the truck updates tim. 🎉
Black smoke is amazing, we're getting are VW TURRAN re-mapped to go a lot faster and also gunna chuck out black smoke on the 15th August can't wait gunna be good
This tuning requires a heavy duty clutch
Just finished my delivery on ETS2 and i see a new video from tim coulsnt be better 😊
I’m originally from Devon
It’s such a lovely place wish I could’ve met u driving the Scania
17:48 it’s the rozzers😂
never fail to disappoint gents
Tim you should go ahead and search for greek scanias a lot of them are above 800 and even above 900 hp
What’s it like on fuel before and after your remap , I currently drive a 2022 R450 XT artic and trying to get my boss to remap that
Quick question…
Isn’t the exhaust smoke illegal? I’ve seen diesels get pulled over for less than that.
It be setup that when the normal exhaust is switched in the emissions will be legal.
Need to call the lorry “Smokey Joe” 👌🏻Shaun I hope you’ve got TT helping you with that lorry🔧🔨
Tim when you do your interior make it White and Blue with Blue LEDS as well
im looking to become a truck driver im based in south east london what would you reccomend is the best way (held liscence for 5 years no points)
You should go to FKM Holland. They make rvs exhausts for trucks. Also rvs manifold And turbo upgrades.
Still no closer to owner driver work
Nice one - I really love people that think its smart to undo the changes made to clean up trucks just so they can laugh at the black clouds of shite coming from the exhaust. Do you think about pedestrians, people behind you that get a cabin full of diesel smoke, and that you are throwing particulates into the air that are proven to give people all sorts of chest problems? Pretty sure the DVSA will be all over you once you have covered their car in black soot on your way past.
Tim you should go to Finland. They have some Scania Timber trucks with 1000 horses 👍👍
Bigger turbo and upgrade manifold would make a difference like the guy said
Always happy on a day of a trucker Tim video
Wow Tim I can't wait to see trigs truck finished bring back the old classic truck to the truck shows
you going to supertruck scotland at knockhill tim?
About time it actually did some work!
If your ever back down in the South West, pop into Scania Shepton Mallet!! Would love to say hello!!
Love everything you do keep up the hard work
17:46 woaahhhh 😂😂 don't test his DAF loyalty
omg love the black smoke tim cant wait for truck festival
would you be able to take off the musical tones off your datashredders unit and put it on yours?
haha see u at truckstar tommorow11!11!
@5:11 Toolkit 🤯
0:04 😱 you scratched the paint work filling up
Love the Scammell Crusader. They are great trucks. Need more old trucks on the channel.
That was the first truck I ever drove in the late 70s. It had the Detroit 8V-71 two stroke engine. Fabulous truck it was. To this day I always wonder where it is now. I drive a R770 scania now but I’ll always have a soft spot for that scammell
Yeeeeeees Tim uploaded!!!
We have the best tuners in Greece and most of our trucks are modified there that's why
Emm Tim… you might get another message from the DVSA about the black smoke but it wasn’t a joke this time from a fan
But btw I love the videos and you for me and my dad into trucking ❤️
The benefits to a remap are vast but the smoke is bound to get you into trouble. PG9 in 3.....2.....1.....
Tim: DVSA at your 2 o'clock
Shaun: DEPLOY SMOKE SCREEN
The Smoke Screen:
Jeez I’d say she’s a flyer now 👍Good job there wasn’t a pedestrian on the curb Sean mounted with da trailer wheels 😬
whats your limiter set to??? seen u doin 60.
You’ll be catching up with Nipper now
Hopefully! 👍
U are the best trucker youtuber ever
Thankz!! Special the end with the Scammel Crusader as a Dessert!! RR Diesel💨💨👌👌
Get the manifolds fitted Tim and new turbo
you need to nickname the truck Greece lightning now
looks like a dimsport - its looked the same since 2016 :s - i got rid of my dimsport unit in 2019, i believe its an italian unit
Can’t believe I finally seen last Saturday you were going north on the M5 by Gloucestershire services and got flashes from you but not seen it in a video lol
Much love from Greece🇬🇷❤️

Sean is a legend. He really needs a bull bar on his wrecker!!
I think he did want 1 but misses Sean put a stop on in when she seen the cost,, I could be wrong but I have a brief memory of a video
Shes sounding fierce as hell Timbo!
Can you please tell me which horns you have and if possible share a link?
Track fest college huntingdon start August 31st? Come school?
That “bomb” is a 1500 litre fuel drop tank as was fitted to the Panavia Tornado GR1, GR4 and F3 aircraft.
Does it smoke every time or is it on a switch?
Swedish perfection made better in Greece! Love it! 🤠🤙
I hope to see you on the road in Devon and Cornwall at somepoint.
1:11 that man towing the bomb must be Vladmir Putin on a holiday trip to the UK
I also always eject my card when I am done driving the truck for the day. I am always scared that it doesn't register ls the break
Hey Tim you have a realy nice truck but one thing is missing on it!...... the red interior light😂
Your truck is nice on the outside but the interior needs to be done by Noah’s and get the interior done in blue plush by truckjunkie
Also blue and whight interior would be insane
I forgot to ask where bouts in Devon were you?
Sounds awesome Tim. You need to work on your navigation skills as DJ Commercials is in Wellington Somerset not Devon
Hi Trucker Tim
Love your videos they are really good entertainment.👍🏼
How about making a Trucker Tim playlist on spotify with all your favorite tracks?
Looking forward to the next video😃
Many greetings from Denmark
I cannot believe you were just down the road! I live in taunton! Love you videos, keep them coming.
I’m just starting my hgv lessons after watching trucker tim huge inspiration for me 😁
Wow Tim that has transformed her. Love thr smoke and Shaun will be working day & night to get Trig lorry done.
Thank you, I am so pleased with how she's sounding and looking now! Looking forward to Triggs lorry being done!
@@TruckerTim then may be Shaun can help you with the 4 series.
12.27 that lorry / company based by me :) Hall Bros! (West Wales) haha
Tim we NEED A BULL BAR in the blue !!!!
Scania engine is clanky…our V8 was clanky even after compressor changed and engine rebuilded. Now we use MAN and it’s like day and night difference 😎Also proper tune should not smoke that much
What's the BHP of that now since its been remapped ?
How do you film whilst driving?
Hope you had a good week mate!
Amazing! Cheers Ruairi! 👍
Love the new remap sounds awesome black smoke n loads of poke
Thank you, I am so pleased with how she's sounding now!
Ayy up Tim,you should have got the whole works done while down there,And met up with Jemma
Wait for the bang ‼️
When you're on the job and the customer won't fuck off 😂
What's the new power?
how much horsepower is it estimated at now?
Reckon about 600
