- Removal of the DPF filter from a 2007 1.6 diesel focus. Information on how i had it cleaned and the positive results.
i thought it was a problem with the turbo because it felt like it wasn't boosting but it was a blocked DPF filter that was the problem.

Done mine this week. Same car, same problem. Went into limp mode. Took it out and poured 'DPF off car cleaner' in to it and left for 8 hours, shaking it now and again. Blasted it through with a pressure washer to clear it out and fitted it back onto my car today. Worked great car is back to full power. 👍

Glad you’re back to full power
You made it look easy but thanks for the vid. Gave me the confidence to have a go. Poured in Wynns off car DPF cleaner . Left over night then rinsed out and left to dry. Refit a day later.
Exactly.
Just had the same work done on my MK2.5 Focus (1.6 TDCI) this week. Its taken 116k miles for the DPF to get blocked but it was obvious that it wasn't working right. Had it all cleaned out, and a service done and the car feels fantastic again, like new!
Jack Webster happy days. You might want to top up the PAT fluid as well. I’ve posted a video about that.
Jack,what method was cleaned the dpf? Wather,chemical or air under pressure?
Looks alright - you don't need to take off the fan - it creates a lot more work and you need to refit it before reinstalling the dpf - which is harder than taking it out anyway
I've done this 4 years ago and just yesterday the same problem came back... It is an ongoing battle it seems, do not forget to top up the eolys fluid!
this car doesnt have a eolys fluid container ....
@@smago9881I have a 2010 focus 1.6 TDCI and have been looking for an eloys tank and can't find one so maybe there isn't one. If not, doesn't my car use eloys fluid then? Thanks
Thanks man. Looks superhelpful.
Will give this a go and let you know how it went.
jolla L
Let me know how you get on and how you went about cleaning it.
and????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
Haha, Well a bit late i suppose. But there was no cleaning. I just removed it and replaced it as shown in the video. Was some time now but sort of remember there was some fluid that had to be replaced after and some errorcode that had to be zeroed after that.
Here in germany we Don, t cut IT of, we have Shops Ho clean IT with Hot Walter presure and steam IT out - IT 24 h and than IT is good for the next 120000km, Best rgread. From germany 🙋♂️
This is video I've been looking for how to actually remove it, God dpfs are shit. Thanks great video
, gonna do same but removing inners totally so it doesn't happen again.
Cheers, Tim.
i thought if you take the filters out of dpf's its a mot failure? on emissions?
Steven Roberts
Yeh true better keep it legal lol. Any good video mate
Cheers.
I've got a dpf problem, engine management light on stuck in limp mode. I've already sprayed Mr. Muscle in several hoses to clean the egr valve and the turbo. Still in limp mode. My next move is to remove the hoses from the dpf presure sensor and spray Mr. Muscle into the hoses so it goes directly into the dpf filter for 2 hours then to take it for a good motorway run in 4th gear. That should clear it hopefully. I'll update
Be interesting to see if that works. I took mine to a specialist place to have it cleaned.
Where does the service message Diesel particle filter soon clogged come from on a 1.6 HDI engine code 9HZ with a mileage of approx. 200,000 km. The differential pressure sensor reports a difference of 4 mbar. I think it's an electronic error that turned on the service lamp and not the DPF is defective. How can I reset the service light? or is this service message automatically produced at around 200,000 km? Thanks
Did you top up DPF fluid? This Dpf needs it to properly work and clean itself. A lot of people don't even know it exist. Including me. I found out few weeks ago.
on the first version of focus mk2, i mean the 2005 version on the 1.6DTCI the DPF doesn't have Diesel Particulate Filter Fluid container
@@ionutdragan5302 mine is the pre facelift model but 2007. I wonder if its the same.
good job
So the DPF can be removed from the bottom even when the car isn't up on jack stands? Or did you manage to pull it up from the top?
pietr I put a brick under each wheel. The extra few inches helped to get it out from the bottom.
I don’t think you can get it out from the top
@@pdunleavy1982 what method was cleaned the dpf?water,chemicals or pressure hot air ?
Hello. Thanks for the video. Did you have to clear the "engine fault" alert with a computer after you got the new DPF in? Thanks
Frederik Maj yes. Used a basic code reader
Cheers, this has confirmed my suspicions with my C-MAX. When yours went was it like that for a while before you got the code? Like the turbo power was gradually being reduced? Mine has the same issue where I thought it was turbo but must be the DPF as Im gettign P242F code. Did you get it out without having to go underneath? I have seen people just blasting water through dont know if this does help or not. Cheers
Greg Knight I think you can only get it out from underneath. From the top would be hard. Yeah, it got worse over time. I have seen people washing with water. Not sure about results though.
Can I ask what codes you had when you started getting the drop in performance? I want to know if it matches what Ive had
Greg Knight I can't remember. I'd taken it to a turbo specialist to see what he thought of the turbo and he said it was ok. See if the turbo shaft has any play in it.
Hello. Thanks for the video. I have one question I saw lot of videos about burning particles in DPF with running car about 3k rpm is it applicable or not for 2005 focus mk2 which is same engine with C-max or should i do the same procedure as u do
This is only good to burn the russ to ash, but to get the ash also out you need a compleed cleaning process with Walter presure and temperatur burnig
why on earth would you want to go through all that taking it off, when you can just get it cleaned on the car via the pressure sensor upstream pipe, job done in under 90 mins,
Hi did you have fault code for dpf before you tock it apart?
Mine sounds like its having same issue it seems sluggish like turbo finds it hard to kick in something like that
Asda Asda I cant remember for sure. I don’t think I had a dpf fault code. But I had a code telling me to refill the pat fluid
@@pdunleavy1982 P242F mine is currently blocked
Thanks for your video, question. We're you able to pull out the DPF from above, or beneath the car. I have to do the same thing but i have no Car bridge nor pit to drive car above.
nofear262 you have to take it out the bottom. I jacked mine up and stuck a piece of wood under each wheel. You just need it up a little bit.
Thanks, let's hope this fixes my problems, my car goes in some slow mode after driving XX km's, i lose all power like the turbo is all gone. If i put the engine down, restart... all is back fine. I guess this will be the DPF that is all clogged up give fualty readings so the engine goes in to some sort of faulty mode to save the turbo...
nofear262
Yeah, it sounds like the DPF
@@nofear262 I have the same problem in my Mazda bk( exactly same engine). I have few dpf related cods in DTC but no check engine light. Have you manage to fix yours?
@@ojangorjani9368 No, we fitted a new DPF. But it did not fix the issue. I guess it's a sensor somewhere. I drive it like it is.
Best thing to do is to de-restrict the DPF filter all together.. (Cutting it open and removing all white honeycomb filter and re-welding the the hole you made) Ok after that you need a ECU remapping run on a dyno. Plus a after market air filter the car will rev and breath much better should pick up 25hp more plus 60/70 pound of torque But the end result will see the car run way better.
And also fully illegal; they're now changing the MOT to actively check the DPF is present and working.
Im going to try this very soon as my car is getting worse. Out of interest is removing the air box and the piping to the turbo just to make access easier or it necessary for removal of DPF? Id like to do it with taking off as minimum as humanly possible!
Greg Knight those 2 parts are the easiest parts to take off. The fan is probably the most awkward. In my opinion you need to take all the parts off I've shown.
Thanks for reply, ok cool Im just going to bit the bullet and go for it. Did you encounter any seized bolts when removing DPF itself?
Greg Knight the clamp holding in onto the turbo was a bit awkward but the rest of them came of easy enough. Maybe give them all a squirt of WD40 and a rub of a wire brush the day before if yours are looking a bit rusty.
Greg Knight hi hi did u get on with the dpf removal ?
@@steveswan5714 hi sorry I never saw this. Funnily enough only just sorted this weekend after having car off road for age's. Had to buy a new DPF in the end, mine was too far gone for any cleaning unfortunately, trying to nurse the car back to health now, the engine bay was a bit smokey after a brief drive!
See oil in tube it passing through seals have gone that's why dpf is clogged up
Oil in turbo
I can see oil in the turbo inlet, is this normal? Also I was wondering if you can access the lower banjo bolt of the turbo oil feed pipe after you remove the DPF? I'm wanting to check if my turbo oil feed pipe has the gauze filter in so I can remove it.
Extropy it's obviously not normal but is wasn't excessive so I wasn't too worried. I'm not sure about that bolt you're on about but once the DPF is off there isn't much else in the way so imagine it wouldn't be too hard to get the pipe off.
If you remove the DPF, just remove the actual filters and keep the form of the DPF. If you get caught on the street just say you bought it this way. :)
The oil comes from valve cover blow back ( it is normal).if there is excessive oil check your oil level faulty dpf can result in high level of hight, I had 1.5 liter extera oil ( mix of diesel and oil)
@@ionutdragan5302 hi, to remove the filters do you have to cut open the dpf filter?
@@MG-qs5zq yes, the dpf is unmounted from the vehicle, then it is cut. Some prefer to cut a door into it and some prefer to cut it in the middle around it. Be carefull to wear protective respiratory gear as micro particles will get loose in the air.
is the dpf the cat aswell for the ford focus 1.6tdci
M1NTY I’m not sure to be honest. I don’t think so. But I could be wrong.
Yes combined DPF and cat
how much did this cost the owner
Nathan Reid
It was my car.
Just cost me a few hours of my time and the cost of having it cleaned.
what was the cost of getting the DPC cleaned up at the workshop ?
Emre Karn I think it was about £100. Maybe a bit less
Hi Emre, done this job in Romania. the job included mecanic disabling the DPF unit from the car, puting it after the cleaning and the actual workshop for the DPF. Local cost were 50 euros for the mecanic and 35 euro for the workshop.
@@ionutdragan5302 mom
@@victoralleyne5678 what?
I wonder if you could flush the dpf with a power washer?
You could try it. I’m sure the people who cleaned it said they leave it to soak in something overnight.
im going to try a pressure wash on mine but ive been told its difficult because the ends are curved and hard to get the washer head in
A pressure washer works well. I also spray a can of cheap poundshop carb cleaner through the filter before I wash it out.
Ciao Kevin, I have a C-MAX 1600cc 80KW and year 2009. Therefore is not exactly as yours. I cannot remove the fan. I can free it from the plugs/brackets but impossible to slide it up. I'd like to send you two pictures to better refine my question. How can I do? Thank you a lot for the video! and hope to hear from you.
Sergio Aiello have you taken off the small bracket at the top that holds the air box?
Then you need to push the 2 clips at the bottom while you pull it up at the same time.
@@pdunleavy1982 i did (btw thank you for the super quick reply) and the bracket seems identical to yours. I also did push the two clips. I have the radiator completely freed, but I cannot slide from the top., because I cannot find the space.
Sergio Aiello where are you in the world?
@@pdunleavy1982 Italy. Might it be useful to share some pictures?
Sergio Aiello
Yes. Go on
When you said you had to rev it to clear our what was in there was that at idle or driving? Can you remember any nasty smells from engine bay when you did? I've had a replacement and not driven it much yet but boost not quite returned fully but the engine stinks after I tried boosting and I got worried and turned it off. It had same issue with a blocked DPF making it seem like turbo had gone.
Greg Knight mine just seemed like it needed a good rev to get the turbo spinning again.
Did you have yours cleaned or did you put a new one on?
@@pdunleavy1982 had to buy a a new one, the other was too far gone to get cleaned, but the turbo had to be reconditioned too because the back pressure of DPF had seized the turbine with carbon and destroyed the VNT vanes.
Greg Knight did you buy new or second hand?
@@pdunleavy1982 new, was European catalysts & exhausts (EEC), reputable company from what I researched. I do think I need a new fuel filter though as well
Greg Knight I’m not sure. Maybe the EGR valve is sticking. You can buy stuff you spray into the inlet that might help if that’s the problem.
Other than that I’m not sure.
This doesn't really tell you how to clean it, only how to remove it.🤔
Why not Just leave it out???, Connecting turbo to rest of the exhaust
5TRYD4
I think that’s what a lot of people do. I don’t know if the car would need reprogramming though.
becaise its an MOT failire and i think signs of cut n shut would be an instant mot faiure. mine is currently engine malfuntion light is on, and garage said my dpf is blocked and driving hard for an hour didnt do anything
If the DPF is missing it's an instant MOT failure, most people just remove the core so it never gets blocked again. Either way you also have to remove the software from the ECU or else you get all sorts of fault warnings. In Ireland the just look for the DPF software and if it's missing they know the DPF had been tampered with and instant failure!!
bullshit@@liamconnolly9233
Better off deleting it altogether it just keeps happening
I'd love to delete my DPF but that is very much illegal in Australia
Good video man!
Those welds are horrid lol
