So glad you survived Mel and I hope there are no long term effects. Amazing that you managed to refit & test it when ill. Take your own advice and definitely look after your health Mel, we all need you to be around for a good long time.
Great to see you smiling at the end of all that struggling under the van hope you have fully recovered now and look forward to seeing what you get up to next
So sorry you where so unwell, can't believe that there was not enough warning on the product label with the way health and safety is these days, I do hope this is rectified ASAP, and THANK YOU for putting it out there again. Hope you recover quickly Mel you really had us worried.
Mel, great to see some old school fitting going on, but please take care, you never know what's in some of the cleaning chemicals nowadays. Glad you came through the health scare ok, oh and the smile on your face when Mary got her new lease of life 😊
Good morning 🌅, I am in my 70s , English dude living in France, i’ve been watching a few of these RUclips videos how to clean a DPF filter, And heard that the chemicals are very dangerous like everything else we normally use , glad to hear you have recovered, though I presume it did take you a little while, I have a 2014 Mercedes sprinter, I’ve always been trying to look after it, it’s done just over 220,000 miles, and yes, my DPF filter needs cleaning, not sure whether to do it myself, as my engine management light has now come on twice, and I have been told by Mercedes that I probably need a new one which is going to cost around €2000, 😮, oh shit, I don’t really have that sort of money as I am a pensioner, I think I might have to do the cleaning process, glad to see yours went well and seemed to be okay, from what I can gather I do need to purchase a device to clean the codes on the van, otherwise I will be charged €120 like when I went in last time, And I’ve been reading up about how the filter gets blocked , I live in a region which is very hilly and very sharp ends when I go to my town I do not go very fast because of road conditions, and even when I do go out onto the main road, I normally keep my speed down, And from what I can gather, it is better for the engine to be revving quite high to help burn the fumes and the particulars a lot better , Great content , a very great shame that it endanger your health, from France,
Personally I’d would say don’t do this yourself but pay a garage to do it for you and they will be able to reset the ECU to zero soot content in the DPF hope this helps and good luck 🤞
Good morning, 🌅, I made the decision that you said, I have booked in my van to have the work done DPF filter , the only problem is that it’s going to take a week for it to be done, as it as to go away for it to be closed, and it’s going cost around €400 , that is the problem with France,
The engine management light won't just go off, you need to tell the van its had a new dpf and reset the parameters aswell like soot and Ash along with reset the differential pressure switch.
@@BigVanSmallWorld if you don't reset the parameter the eolys fluid or diesel depending on what model you have when injected into the dpf will add way more than it needs and could cause your dpf to melt or overheat.
Wishing you well. I recommend looking into the Terrain Model of health and detox. The more I learn about these diesel emissions systems the more I think it's all a circle jerk. It seems better to just spew straight diesel exhaust into the air then to employ all these complicated systems that only seem to delay the toxic stuff from ending up in our ecosystems.
I used a different brand of nasty stuff, I wore googles, respirator and gloves and was very careful to avoid any direct exposure to these toxic chemicals.
Wow!, I could relate to all that working underneath my vehicle and at times, I have to turn or paused for a bit to rest it out and carry on work. Awesome video and wishing you well and no long time effect from using that Wynns product..Glad to see you smiling at the end of the video with great improvements to your van.
I work with all sorts of chemicals at work. I've learned to check the full data sheets too! the labels on some products can be very lacking! COSHH definitely wins! Glad you're OK Mel!
Stay safe, I used a small chemical outside and it made me feel so sick, was some type of harsh solvent. Will always wear respirator now when dealing with chemicals. You should send Wynns a message and warn them about your situation, I was going to use that a few years back but glad I never!
Hello Mr. DIY, I know how a person can get sick from fumes / toxin overload. When I wire brush rusty parts , for example, with out gloves & mask, I'm useless next day. You struggled on and my cap off to you. I owned (3) different VW Transporter Euro vans, but after most of their life was exhausted by a couriour company, I seemed to be doing repairs more than driving them. If I ever need another diesel van, your's would definately be on my radar. Thanks for your video dispite your feeling so crappy. Hope it's running well for you now.
Sometimes after cleaning the dpf you have to use a diagnostic tool to tell the vehicle it has had a new dpf fitted in order to get the vehicles system to reset itself and turn off the engine management light.
Been lying under my sprinter most of the day too , discs, pads, handbrake shoes, bleeding , I’m too old for this 😂🤔 glad you got yours sorted , stay well
Thanks for the danger tip BUT !!!! Then you stick your head under the van and inhale the fumes from the exhaust !!!!! And what was in the fumes? Winns gas !! Some you Winns some you lose !! Stay safe .
Glad you're feeling better Mel. All these DPF and EGR problems have put me off modern diesel's, I don't do enough miles to keep them clean. Unfortunately getting a modern second hand van that runs on petrol seems impossible these days. Old vans are simply old...harder to get certain parts for and repairs and maintenance kind of increases with age. I think I'm going back to a petrol car and just use my little foldup ESTEREL caravan 9'x5' when I need a break... Yes back to campsites for the most part 😆
Yes Mel, agree with you, why have all that extra crap on a van to so call, 'clean' the exhaust gases, when all that concentrated crap comes out into the environment when it's cleaned. Glad you are okay. We got our done by a specialist in Turkey. Plus we regularly use a cleaning fuel tank diesel additive to clean our injectors and EGR valve. Best wishes...Tony and Carolyn
Bloody hell Mel 😢.. We are so glad your feeling better and found the route cause.. Take care of yourself out there.. Oh and we noticed at the end of the video, you wasn't too far away from our house!. 😊
Nice. You need to determine why this happened to avoid it in the future, otherwise it will happen again. You have treated the symptom, but must determine the cause.
Another great video Mel hope you are on the mend now. You was extremely lucky but great that you have highlighted how dangerous that chemical is and to always go online and double check the safety information I would of done the same to be honest and just read the warning labels on the product
Well done Mel'Thanks for the heads up on Chemical cleaner pleased to see you in a better place. Gentleman on Shorts vids saying seeing a lot of camper sprinters in his worksop owing to sitting idling too long. Great Helpfull vid.¤
Good to see you on the road to recovery, but risking the troll of the week, you were a bit silly trying to do the exhaust when feeling so unwell and weak. I guess your pleased look and happy expression at the end made all the effort worthwhile, but that unfortunately is the result of using such chemicals. Although not the best for the environment, they are designed to do what it say on the tin, and clean out your DPF, its difficult to have it both ways which is why I suppose some people get the garage to do it. Fair play to your persistence, it paid off. Take care and happy travels.
DPF's are coated matrix reaction chambers. Blasting water through them collecting particles and then abrading those particles along the rest of the tract is well damaging. The matrix is just like the casing, a structure, it's the micron coating on the matrix that does the work and because it's a matrix you get lots of surface area. Hey, 3 cheers for having a go and you'll certainly feel the improvement of flow, but effectiveness of the DPF will be far from normal. I'd probably suggest a high temperature oven over chemical and kinetic flushing. Reverse flow is a great approach. Finally take care and thanks for sharing the experience, the safety will help others to come.
If your engine's performance is hampered by for example a clogged DPF, the transmission's logic gets confused and it will shift at points that are not optimal for what you're trying to do. That will cause the ride to be less smooth as it could be.
Wow Mel, that was painful to watch mate! Time will tell if things are fixed I guess. Interesting about the gear shifting. Most model tranny ecm's will learn your driving habits e.g. After a winter and defensive driving, the shift patterns shorten up. So now you've cleared code etc etc and the engine management is tip top, plus you like caned the snot out of her, the shifting is more responsive and smoother..... anywho, thanks what we found after a canadian winter! 😊 Hope you're back firing on all cylinders Mel 😂
actually planning to clean my Renault trafic dpf this weekend using Wynnes cleaner. Thanks for the heads up.[OLD BOY ,NOT MUCH ON HEALTH AND SAFETY } ]
Very sorry to hear that. Just came accross your video. I have just used the same product a few days ago and used gloves, no eye protection. The warning should say to use gloves, mask and eye protection. If only I known or taken more care.
Worry lack of info on the product, surely the label should match the COSH data sheet? You did well to finish the job given you were ill. Look after yourself. 👍😎
A few things. 1/ use Hydra Maxim fuel additive, it’s amazing for all things diesel. Genuinely works as tested on my Volvo xc70 D5 with 240,000 miles. 2/ consider a carnivore diet for a month or two you’ll feel better. 3/ headaches are usually caused by salt imbalance, so by some electrolytes and take daily.
I have driven a Merc Vito London Taxi for 11 years, chugging around in stop start traffic all day. These are the perfect conditions for getting a blocked PDF. Probably one of the most frequent engine management lights to illuminate on a diesel is for a blocked PDF. The amount of drivers that I met that had this problem was astonishing. Especially those that drove a TX type of taxi and who hardly ever drove above 30mph. I never once had to clean the PDF on my Vito in the way you have on your Sprinter. The solution to happy motoring is to only use low ash engine oil. Always change the oil and air filters and regularly go for a 10 minute thrash at 70mph down the motorway. The thrash down the motorway is very important, this is mentioned in the owners handbook. ( Does anybody bother to read them?)The purpose is to burn off all the accumulated sooty particulates in the PDF. By doing this you are cleaning the PDF in the way the manufacturer intended; and yes, everyone that lives next to the coast bound A2 gets all of the sooty particles from the diesels that have been driving around London all day!.

DPF's are coated matrix reaction chambers. Blasting water through them collecting particles and then abrading those particles along the rest of the tract is well damaging. The matrix is just like the casing, a structure, it's the micron coating on the matrix that does the work and because it's a matrix you get lots of surface area.

If your engine's performance is hampered by for example a clogged DPF, the transmission's logic gets confused and it will shift at points that are not optimal for what you're trying to do. That will cause the ride to be less smooth as it could be.
