Your videos are closest I’ve ever come to addiction. You have give me the confidence and knowledge to understand my 2.2 hdi Peugeot 407sw. Many, many thanks…
great video,thanks for making it.I'm in the USA,and accidentally ran into your channel. I have to say you explained this issue in such and easy way to understand.Also the results were perfect.SO THANK YOU for the USA
Jimmy, I know you've said this before but I think worth repeating, these DPF's block for a reason and that should be the first focus of the mechanics attention. My own take is everything happens for a reason, even if often you don't know what the reason is. There's no such thing as 'it's just Radom and it's one of those things'. Another very informative video, thank you.
Great videos and honesty as always Jimmy Thankyou , It would be great if Launch can release a cheaper tool as the eurotab 3 I can’t afford , so be good to see this new release you mentioned , just isn’t going to be in my price range a £800 tool maybe more affordable - has launch thought of perhaps renting out these tools so more good mechanics like yourself and me as a mobile mechanic of 16 years can reset the cars after the other checks and cleans have been carried out , catch twenty -two for me , would like the work and can do the work but can’t afford £6000 for this tool .. thanks again .
Hi Jimmy, will be good to see the launch mot 4 used in the real world if you can get one, I'm tempted to get one but now I'm going to wait and see your opinion !
Jimmy, please, please, please can you do a in depth review of the launch x431 Mot4 . I called launch uk asking about this, but the only info they gave was on their web site. Ive tried searching details/ videos for it. Please please please 🙏 . Love the videos as always, nice quick little one. See you on the next video 👍👍👍
Brilliant video as always. I have a boxer, DPF blocks within 300miles, when cleaned pressure is at 3 mbar. Van runs nice, I have never seen you diagnose injector fault or air sensor. I assume these could be my issue. Do you have a video where you have found the fault with dpf blocking due to either of these faults? Good to here you more positive than the end of last year.. keep smiling, I know its tough paddling your own canoe
He has a video on a boxer we're the pattern drivers side mirror caused the dpf to block because of a faulty outside Air temperature sensor in the cheap mirror 😳🤯 maybe worth a check
Hi John, no not that, I have a temp sensor and apart from that it doesn't affect euro5, on top of which blocking within 300 miles .. a bit of town driving for a few days would be unlikely to regen anyway @@johncoldwell340
@@davewellsheatingengineer I take it no other codes, have you checked turbo have seen turbos that boost fine but pass oil into boost pipes or straight down the exhaust
@johncoldwell340 no turbo not leaking oil, I'm not burning through any oil . Van runs lovely no issues now I've drilled 3 10mm holed through spare dpf. But need a solution
Looking forward to the new tool review - I I dont know how they cant do the Amazon version in the uk !! if Launch UK done a cheaper range of tools they wold sell a load
Amazon tools are based on Asian vehicles so have issues with some functions on European cars. Amazon tools just come from a warehouse where as Launch UK have a team for UK support and distribution so prices are going to be higher. The quality of the tool is also noticeably better
hi JIMMY thank you for another fabulous video I enjoy and look forward to each of your videos. I would love to be able to buy you a coffee on your website for the pure entertainment value that give. Please put a link that we can support you. All the way from Ireland.
Jimmy...brilliant work as usual. I use shell vpower and millers diesel additive in my euro6 vw transporter. Is there anything else I can do as preventative maintenance.........was thinking of buying some of the launch uk add to fuel products. Many thanks! Dave 👍👍👍👍
Ah yes thanks Jimmy again another Great Video Iv a slightly older version of this OM642 Engine in my 2008 Mercedes ML320 by god I’d never part with it even in its worst days! Thanks fully I don’t have a DPF In it. Again can’t wait to see the new Cheaper Version of that Launch UK Product when it’s released….a question how do you find the Top Don Products?? Brendan From Clare Ireland.
did one of these a while back it was that blocked ran for a sec then cut out on the head left hand side near dps sensor has a small oil seperator on the rear if the head 2 bolts and it comes off it has a fiber seal that goes on them causes high oil consumption and blocks dpfs quickly
Nice earner on the way home. Love it when it works out like that. I have a rule, all on the way home work must be spent that day on Amazon to buy random stuff. Ha ha.
Hi Jimmy, love your videos they are very clear and informative, just wondering would a blocked DPF cause smells inside the car. I have just bought a Merc CLS with this 3.0 L CDI engine and I am getting odours every now and then inside the car. The dealer who sold me the car said he has just replaced one injector, done a full DPF clean and replaced the DPF sensor. The car is running sweet, but every now and then there is a smell of fumes inside the car, any idea if its related. Cheers.
Hi Jimmy 👋. Happy new year🎉 and what a great video again 💪👌👍👏💯 Could you please put up direct link for the gun and cleaner you're using as i keep getting lost navigating their website 🤭😳😡🤷♂️ it will be great if you put direct link to these 2 major items please 🙏 Thanks a million in advance and kindest regards 😊. ✌❤☘ From Co.Mayo.eir
Where are you located in UK? I have similar problems with my car, in a 1st place was a limp mode, changed dpf sensor, for 2 weeks was all good, today i have again engine light, checked with my carly adapter, now i got a message with 14CF00 The positive control deviation of exhaust gas recirculation control is too high.
Topdon are just copies of Launch. They buy there software from Launch and no UK support as far as I'm aware only grey imports from China. Topdon is a pointless brand to me as I already have Launch. I would test them if I were given them but would not buy one
Hi, i have an 01432 (Electrical Fault In Circuit) Fault on a VW Scirocco. I did have a 01423 (implausible signal) Lateral Acceleration Sensor in addition, but i have replaced the faulty sensor.

Who goes to a mechanic to get something fixed and doesn’t bring money with them to pay?? Do people do that much to you Jimmy - going looking for a bank machine after you’ve fixed their car? It’s bad manners!
He knew what the call out fee was and should have at least had this with him rather than Jimmy having to wait after he finished the job. This happens to me too and it drives you mad plus wastes your time!
I'm facing the same problem with my Mercedes E350 (same with the video), and no garage can solve it. I need your help and service, sir. But I can not reach you by phone, could you help me?🥲🥲🥲

Better for them to sell a few expensive tools with good profit, than a lot of cheaper tools at little profit.

Hi where did you buy the hose cone adapter? I was checking in launch UK and the dpf gun doesn't have that cone
I thought launch uk sold direct on Amazon though ?
No they don't. Only via there UK website
I have a b28/8 error, could I have a faulty sensor causing me limp mode or could it be a case of both the sensor and the dpf clogged?

Maybe a battery powered air compressor would help your work. They are only about $100 now.
It is battery powered. Milwaukee 18v
Do you cover the whole of the uk?
Only Bedfordshire
@@ORileysAutoswhat's the best way to contact you? My car has a DPF issue
Jimmy, at what pressure after a clean would you say a DPF needs replacing, pressure at 3000 RPM
Over 100mbar
@@ORileysAutos 👍👍👍👍
For actual replacement rather than just cleaning, you should check how much ash is in the DPF, as opposed to soot. The former can't be cleaned.
