  • for over one year the oil level on our mk5 mondeo 2 litre diesel was rising.
    This is the story of how we fixed the problem which ended in the diesel particulate filter and all sensors on it being replaced for a good used assembly.
    The mileage on this mondeo was approx 294k miles when this fault first appeared.

    My theory Carbon build up on the sensor engine side bridges the contact eventually creating a conductive path and it creates high resistance, the ECU reads this as high dpf pressure and throws in to dpf regen mode to try and clear the filter, I took a pressure sensor out of a mk4 with this service oil issue and soaked it in drain cleaner overnight and cleaned it up next day with all alloy wheel cleaning acid.
    It solved the issue of the check oil error.
    There is no sensor fault detected unless its open circuit as its designed to read high resistance.
    Dont know if I was correct, but it stayed fixed

    Hi Alan, watched your channel for some time now, very informative. The problem you have does sound like it could be one of the Hego sensors, I will tell you a little story that would back up your theory. A friend of mine has 68 plate petrol engine focus, a couple weeks back he took it to our local garage for an MOT and on the emissions test it failed the lamda readings were extremely high but no fault codes where stored. So in the end he book with a Ford main dealer and they diagnosed a faulty hego sensor, so it guess must have been just below the ECU threshold for it not to trigger the engine management light. So in your case a faulty hego sensor could be causing a regeneration to be disrupted hence the high oil level.
    So if you have another vehicle with the same fault might be wise to go for the Hego sensors first. Sorry for the long winded comment, and keep up the good work with the videos.

  • @guffermeister
    @guffermeister Год назад +4

    Almost certainly a duff temperature sensor - the one after the DPF itself as that is the one that is the more critical to getting the temp high enough for a normal burnoff to work - probably not enough out of range to flag the ECU. There was an ECU update from Ford for these relating to DPF strategy. Not sure actually what they changed. If the temp sensor level doesn't detect the rise high enough the ECU will dump more fuel in on the exahust cycle to feed the DPF to get the temps up during regen - they can dump fuel in there all the time under heacy load to enable the DPF to keep itself partly clean without needing a regen - nomral or forced. In terms of the oil warning, many ECU's will reduce the oil life counter when regens run. There will be an allowance for a number of normal regens during the normal running conditions of the specificed oil life. Doing any regens you get unburnt fuel in to the oil as it gets past the rings diluting it, and increasing engine wear. The second temp sensor should be at least 550 to 600c during a regen as that is the normal start of regen temperature. The ECU will need to know the input temp as well so it knows how much fuel it should dump in to the DPF. Saying that, it could be the HEGO - a duff heater in it would again give false readings about needing the ECU to dump in more fuel. Same for the actual sensor. And depending on how the driver drives it - like a vicar (never seen a taxi driver do that) or like they stole it (more often how a taxi driver would) I'd expect the fuel economy to be much better as well

    Hi Alan great work, I am glad that you find the issue. I think that the best way of discovering which sensor is broken is to catch on forscan or other diagnostic software regeneration and see PIDs. In my situation I changed all of this sensor but for used ones. Unfortunatley it didnt solve problem but I suspect that second temp sensor is broken. It is because I noticed that when I drive and regeneration is on EGT 11 and EGT 12 are almost the same and sometimes EGT12 is lower that first one. This temperatures are very strange for me.
    CATEMP11- 397
    EGT11-397
    EGT12- 395
    CATEM12- 664

    Maybe i am wrong but i will try on next week to change for new temp sensor.

    I expect the down stream to be main culprit as that’s the sensor that will monitor whether that dpf has filtered the emissions to the parameter. The correct type of oil is also important for a happy dpf but with the stop start conditions of taxi use I’d expect the dpf to have a half life anyway aswell as service interval being around half aswell

  • @gotj
    @gotj Год назад +2

    Cheers Alan! The regens turn the soot into ash, ash that stays forever into the DPF. Maybe after ~300k miles there's so much ash clogging the DPF that it can't work/breathe anymore as it should. Because DPFs have a life, don't they?

  • @steverpcb
    @steverpcb Год назад +3

    Alan, temp sensors are easy to test, my vote is its the sooted up Hego sensor that is either faulty or giving a false reading due to the soot. Rather like the map sensor on the mk3 diesel with a blob of muck on it causing black smoke.

    Yes!! I've waited 2 years for you to make this video. I knew this day would come. I have a 2008 Mondeo 2L diesel. The oil level rises with too much diesel getting into it and I've been changing the oil almost the equivalent of every full tank of diesel. Had the injectors tested, they are fine. Had the dpf pressure tested, that was fine. I've always suspected it was dpf related, but thats way beyond my knowledge of cars and so difficult to research on the internet. All the faults you are describing are the same as my car. At least I now have a little hope that my car could be fixed. But sounds like a nightmare job to do, and I'm certainly not as wealthy as a taxi driver. But big thank you anyway for this video!

      First change the pressure pipes on dpf and use silicone ones.
      If that fails change the pressure sensor they plug into on the bulkhead. I bought a genuine delphi on for £60 on ebay. You then need to tell ecu it's a new sensor using forscan. These early mk4s use a simpler system without the extra sensors so it's likely this will fix it like I did with mine.

    Hi Alan, I have this problem on a 2.2 puma defender engine, and like you went through the likely culprits, injectors and HP pump, injectors were tested and they were ok, I changed the pump and no joy there, after digging around on the internet and finding that DPF systems could cause this problem I looked into that, I carried out a forced regen which lasted all of 30 seconds to complete, so that indicated that there was little or no excessive soot build up, after more research the general consensus appears to be that the temperature sensors could be the problem, next time I get it in I'll see if there's a test I can do with a DMM on the temperature sensors and go from there, I suspect that the sensors may be a K type, a simple resistance check would indicate an open circuit (damaged), or a very low resistance would indicate a good sensor. if I find anything I'll report back...
    Although this isn't a massively common problem vehicle manufacturers know about this and try to distance themselves from it and won't give any warranty cover outside the warranty period (discuss)...

  • @Lukaz2205
    @Lukaz2205 Год назад +1

    Id say the reason it's coming on @Alan Howett is the Oil Dilution sensor, if it fails regeneration, it dumps excess diesel into the oil which thins the oil up and then sets off the oil change required message.
    As long as the driver gets a good run for about 20 mins at about 60mph once a week then it should be fine.
    Revs need to be between 1.5-3k rpm for it to get hot enough.
    This is what I've got from the Ford Handbook and from the dealership.

    That is common problem for 2 liter engines on ford, and volvo with this engine. And fault is on ecu/software. Dpf regeneration stays on, it makes it all time, and oil will raise because make regeneration all times. Fuel goes to oil.

    Hi Alan, I am in Australia and have a Ford Mondeo 2015 MK5 and have the exact problem that you have described. "Change Engine Oil Required", "Rising oil Levels". After watching your solution here, I purchased a 2019 Mondeo DPF at a car wrecker for $325 Australian dollars with only 19000 Kilometers on it. The DPF came complete with all of the sensors connected and we intend to replace the whole DPF with the new sensors. My question is does the ECU require a "Remap" or can it just be changed. I have been going through this problem with no mechanics knowing what was causing my high fuel and constant oil change required light coming on. I'm booked in to have the DPF changed on Thursday so hopefully it doesn't need a remap as it is not going to a Ford Dealer. Your advice would be appreciated greatly. Thanks for the great videos

      hi daniel, you do not need to reprogram anything, i just fitted the used dpf with all the sensors ..gave it an oil and filter change and reset the oil required now...that fixed it.
      i do now have another taxi with oil level rising...this one has a code pointing to the no1 hego sensor p2000 nitros oxide sensor trap efficiency below threshold...so i have replaced both hego sensors and will be making a video once this one is fixed..waiting for the driver to put some miles on it now, anyway, hope your car is fixed, good luck

    All this sounds very familiar to me.
    My car has the 2.2 175 engine and it is constantly filling the oil for me ( over about 6000 mile from min to max on the dipstick) all i have seen on mine is the temperature sensors and rubber hoses never seen the hego sensor and there defo isnt a 2nd hego sensor
    ..... Its known issue with the 2.2 and the dpf as on the early engine ( 175bhp) it uses the engine injectors rather than a vaporizer.... As it does the dpf it injects on the exhaust stroke and it puts the diesel down the exhaust to start the regen..... However it also ends up in the sump as it gets past the piston rings ....
    Also there was a known issue on the 2.2 where the oil quality sensor /however it works it out was to sensitive and there was a newer software for the ecu to fix the quality issue. Also made the regen run diffrently .
    Intresting that they have gone back to using the engine injectors rather than the vaporiser like the later mk4.....

  • @bartoszk4812
    @bartoszk4812 Год назад +1

    My educated guess is that the sensors were ok and at the mileage of near 300k miles you would inevitably have some level of ash in the DPF effectively reducing the capacity to accumulate the soot.
    That means more frequent regens.
    During each regen small amount of fuel injected in the exhaust stroke of the piston which is pushed to DPF to ignite soot, passes the piston rings and dilutes the oil.
    I think computer can calculate oil deterioration taking into account frequency and conditions of regens. As you mentioned using alegorythm.
    Hence message on the dash to change oil!
    That is also why it is important to use low SAPS oils to manufacturers specs.
    There is a service that I used which will flush out not only soot but also ash content of the DPF which restores it to near new condition. They're called DPF Cleaning Services and are based near Stansted Airport.
    They cleaned my Mazda's DPF with great success.
    On similar note my friends Chevrolet Captiva 2.0d also has DPF and demands new oil with a spanner light every 6 months. However, engine oil level never raises. She mainly does short distances and due to spanner light has new oil every 6k miles approximately but don't hold me to it. I just change it when I get a call from her 🤣

    • @Lukaz2205
      @Lukaz2205 Год назад +4

      If it fails a regeneration process, the ECU pumps extra diesel into the chamber to boost temperatures to help clear the DPF and turn the soot into ash. If you turn the engine off or just stop so it doesnt get hot enough then it send all the extra diesel into the engine oil. Which then dilutes it raising the level

    • @robertmikulinac6116
      @robertmikulinac6116 Год назад +3

      It's happening because the ECU request an extra amount of fuel to help raising temperature in DPF to perform a regeneration, if the process fails for some reason some of the extra fuel will be unburnt and it will end up un oil through piston rings. As there is no indication on dash to tell driver when it regenerate this can happen a few times repeatedly and oil level will gradually raise. ECU will keep requesting a regen until the sooth level is not dropped and the parameters are not back to the normal level as it is programmed to do this. Some other models have the 5th injector in DPF unit so they not adding extra fuel to the engine but adding it straight to the filter.

      Check your battery for voltage, because it its old , the low voltage may throw the ESP computer into a reset mode, just like after battery disconnect. Then the system needs to be calibrated, which is turning the wheels from left to right full lock while vehicle moving slowly.

    1. change the DPF again on the current faulty car
    2. or change the sensor`s 1 at a time , i know what i`d do, and that`s change 1 sensor at a time as this "may" be a recurring problem on future mondeo`s and do you REALLY want to keep changing DPF`S 🙄🙄🙄🙄

Time is money in the taxi business and time off the road will cost much more than an oil change so I can see why Alan did what he did. In my view, the way to resolve this is to find a way of testing the sensors off the vehicle, prove it on the DPF that has been removed and then progress to testing the sensors on the new problem child.
