    That 407 looked (and sounded) like it was in great condition for a 2006, 165k miles. Giving the impression that it had been well looked after and that there's plenty more years and miles of faithful service left in it.

      we have a 207 with the 1.6hdi and dpf, 143k miles (22k in the last year) and for a 17 year old daily abused car nothing has gone wrong apart from things we left too long like the release bearing squealing, other than that just servicing and it drives lovely tbf, pulls very well too with a stage 1 from hdi tuning

    It may be reasonable to give warning of a dpf replacement provided that the differential pressure sensor also agrees with diagnosis. Even then, it may still be worthwhile to perform a dpf clean to see if the pressure reduces.

    Any part needs to have a set lifecycle and it may be, that DPFs are understood to not deal with emissions properly at roughly x miles - it may still pass pressure checks but it may be no longer catalysing pollutants.

    What an absolute con by Peugeot. If this is the 2.0, it's the same engine that's in my 2007 Mondeo Mk4, which has just done 221,000 miles and is still on the original DPF, with a pressure reading of 2mbar at idle and aroind 30 at 3000 rpm. Perfectly fine. There's no need for this at all.
    Thanks Jimmy for bringing this to light.

      Does yours also use the eolyse fluid?

    • @RikAindow
      @RikAindow Год назад

      @homeistheearth nope. The mondeo uses a DPF without fluid. It relies on the engine being hot, by way of overfuelling to carry out its regens. Later ones, Euro5, have an injector known as a vaporiser which sprays diesel straight in to the DPF to burn it all off.

    • @homeistheearth
      @homeistheearth Год назад +1

      ​@@RikAindowok, yes my Citroen c4 gp with the 2.0 hdi also uses postinjections with the injectors and use the glowplugs to raise temp.
      The eolyse is a fluid i think is some iron based toxic stuff, they claim it will get stuck in the dpf, so i actually changed it, but saved the old, as i could not find a clear answer if it could be cleaned. But the service time is 180000 km -

  • @Anode_Diagnostics
    @Anode_Diagnostics Год назад

    It’s my understanding that catalyst REE have a finite life and need to be replaced after “X” km/miles, if the DPF and CAT are combined or the DPF uses catalyst Rare Earth Elements then they will be depleted and the catalytic action is not taking place as it should.

Its unbelievable that the car manufacturers can do this its as bad as ths diesel emissions scandal when they progamed the car to produce less smoke when it stationary and being revd up for the mot. You can even see this in some cars if you rev them when you are driving and all the sutt is coming out the exhaust but when you are stationarity they dont produce any sutt

    It’s taking the control away from the customers, deliberately. Now if the economy was in good shape people wouldn’t be overly concerned with built in obsolescence as they would simply trade up. When money is tight cars have to be on the road longer. I have just had a problem on a car which ended with a falling out with the garage and a lost sale for them. I actually fixed it myself.

  • @pw601

    I fail to understand why people choose spending 10s of thousands of pounds on a new car because there's a fault with their old car that requires fixing and they figure the value of an old car that makes it not worth doing. On a new car depreciation alone is going to cost WAY more than most repairs. And that's before you're paying off the finance.

  • @fluffyblue4006
    @fluffyblue4006 Год назад +1

    This is planned obsolescence. No doubt. A DPF in a car that does 120k of city kilometers and a lot of idling will definitely have a much harder life than the DPF in a car that is mainly driven at highway speeds. So, relating DPF life to the total driven distance, is a malicious act of the manufacturer. The DPF will stop to regenerate and kill itself, while it could possibly still outlast other critical parts.
    Why do manufacturers do this? They did not do it for the engine timing components. They could easily limit engine RPM to 2500 when the timing belt reaches its end of life date, so you wouldn't destroy your engine.
    Well, it's YOUR engine that self-destructs when the timing belt fails. No harm done. You'll get another car.
    When the DPF is supposed to be not effective anymore, it is the environment that suffers and the environment must be protected at all cost.
    It's environment protection laws doing this.

  • @jimmyk2001
    @jimmyk2001 Год назад

    The reason this happens is PSA vehicles use a wet DPF setup that injects eolys fluid into the fuel tank everytime fuel is added to the tank, eolys is essentially cerium oxide which allows a much cleaner combustion and lower temperatures for regeneration, unfortunately one of the side effects of using eolys is over time it does reduce the effectiveness of the DPF and eventually it will no longer be effective in stopping soot emission, this is why the car states its full of additive, now resetting the ECU to tell it thats it been replaced will work fine but the issue with this is its still going to be full of ash and due to the wear on the precious metals from the eolys additive it wont be as effective and will end up getting saturated more often and will regenerate more often, in turn contaminating the oil and increased wear on the engine, how bad this will be who knows, this fix does work but may have risks attached
