I like your content. You explain thing really good and simple. I have learnt many things from you. Such as electric, dpf issues
@lasanadrammeh1308 Thanks!
Great video and I loved watching the troubleshooting journey learned a lot! Although I would recommend saving yourself and the customer time in the future with these codes and and tailpipe soot... When the computer throws these codes it's related to the low pressure EGR circuit, you also could easily notice there was soot in the tailpipe. What this means is that the vehicle has a cracked DPF filter. It may also be clogged too, but soot in the tailpipe is a telltale sign that the DPF mesh filter has been cracked and is allowing soot to pass through to the mufflers. Even if you had a clogged DPF, it would not allow soot to pass through into the tailpipe.
This is an extremely common issue with these model years, the DPF is a consumable part that is not meant to last the lifetime of the vehicle, they go for about 100k miles.... and eventually they will crack. They can also crack because of faulty injectors causing too much heat in the system. You could probably make the engine light go away for a while, but eventually it will throw the codes again and it will clog up sooner than later. It's extremely frustrating that the EPA has put so many restrictions on diesels like this....
If you replace the DPF filter make sure you also replace the EGR filter at the same time or clean the EGR filter, that thing is probably clogged up as well, theres also a low pressure egr valve back there that could use a cleaning too. You might be able to use egr cleaner and spray it into the exhaust manifold but usually that doesn't seem to work from what I have seen. This is what I was able to discover through my own research on these jetta TDI EGR systems.
I own a 2013 Jetta TDI and have the same codes. Did you try redlining the vehicle to see if the computer forced the car into limp mode?
@POVMagic No! I didn't, Thank you for your input my Friend, I appreciate it!
@@KITS_Auto_and_Truck_Repair No problem, I loved you analytics and logic trying to solve this issue. I honestly learned a lot from your video. But yeah just check the tailpipe when you get a TDI, if it is full of soot the DPF is likely broken. I love these cars but the EPA really screwed us. Annoying repair to do too, but I think its an easy job once you do it once.
GREAT VIDEO YOUR SMART AND A GOOD TEACHER THANKS
@ericalexander6175 My Pleasure! Thank you!
Excellent video,very well explained again.Thankyou.
@richardjones3112 My Pleasure! Thanks
Excellent video, I have deffinately learnt something today. thankyou
@PCashie My Pleasure! Thanks
You know I'm in the same position.I think I'm just going to do DPF replace. i've very rarely seeing these in car cleanings truly work. If you take DPF out and really clean it, may be get better results. But to get DPF out is a huge PIA. Why not put a new one in. One of the comments below said they had this problem (codes) and continued to drive 20,000 miles with no issue. I have VCDS scan tool. So I'll force some regens. I'll look into blowing cleaner in there, may be, but hate to waste time and money. There is DPF delete but I'm a boy scout and not worth it. By the time you do that mod it cost you the same, albeit, with no DPF soot load issue ever again. However resale and states/cites that check emissions will be an issue. Not to mention fines. Love the VW TDI. Had mine for 12 yrs. Plan on 12 more. Great pwr (torque) and MPG.
@gmcjetpilot Yes!
As a backyard mechanic with the same situation as far as a high soot load and dpf light on as well as limp mode and chk engine light. I Cleaned the dpf with the same gun to no avail.
But my dpf pressure sensor didn't show a code but was the culprit. The dpf light went out as well as limp mode but my egr o401? Is still there.
I have put 20k miles on the car with the insufficient flow on the egr.
Runs great at 200k.
I'm leaning towards changing the egr filter now but I'm just guessing without a higher priced scan tool.
Can't see dumping thousands on this thing when the value of the car isn't there.
Thanks, love your work

@jeffreydelgado6382 My Pleasure! and thanks for sharing your experience with us!
Great video!
@JohnLieberg Thank you!
Very informative!! thanks
@euromastertek7532 My Pleasure!
Boss you are right
@user-dz4jb5rg6k Thanks!
It is good
@Diagnostics. Thanks!
Hello friend, can you filmed the process for remplacing de Dpf please ? 😎hello from France..👍
@JPDC911 Hello my Friend from France, Comment sa va? unfortunately we decided not to film that project, it's so hard to film since there isn't enough room around the DPF
@@KITS_Auto_and_Truck_Repair Ok I understand the reason I'm looking forward to the next video.. 👍
I think I would do a driving Regen...
@hansroland6894 Oh really? why
Continued: I meant before taking the vehicle for a test drive.
@clublength724 The Scanner didn't allow me to initiate the Regen!
What could be better to replace the EGR or the DPF FILTER?. Do you have a video of the DPF replacement?
@maximilianocruz1360 not on this model, did you get it diagnosed!
I used the VCDS scanner and I did the reganeration with that but are still appearing the codes p240F and P0401. Where are you located?
Did you end up changing DPF? Or did customer opt out?
@arvinquiroz7665 Customer opted out!
Why didn't you activate def regeneration using the Auto scan tool. i know that the scan tool does not allow dpf regeneration when there are trouble codes, but the DTC that you had had to do with brakes. the scan tool does take the def to more than 600 degrees Celsius .
@clublength724 The Scanner didn'tt allow me to initiate the Regen!
You could melt the dpf honeycomb, if you don't clean it first.
Hey there
@barasouware6698 Hello!
Hi mate I'm from Belfast I want to get in thouch with you many thanks
@barasouware6698 Hello, Sure you can get in touch with me by sending me an email at kitsautoandtruckrepair@gmail.com
What was the DPF deferential pressure after injecting the cleaning fluid and doing the test drive that brought the soot content down to zero?
You should have taken it on a 30 mile road test driving with mainly low gears.
If the car is not on limp mode with reduced performace(the car can still rev past 3000 revs all the way to red line) then the DPF is still good cause if it is blocked the car will be on restricted performance.
Oh and next time don't drive with one hand and video with the other hand for content, it's very dangerous and not worth it, we your viewers believe you, so just explain your test drive results after.....
Stay safe bro!!
@leroyjohnson4973 Thank you! I appreciate your input!
General you need to get a manometer to read the dpf and stop using that rubbish dpf cleaner and use launch cleaner instead
I would say he must stop working on DPF issues. Even though he uses LAUNCH, will have the same results because he doesn't understand the way DPF system works.
Most definitely I think he should take a page or two from jimmy oriley
@naurbassant7329 I would not call this cleaner rubbish, I've had success cleaning DPF With it, but it doesn't work if the DPF is too clogged!! it works sometimes
@@KITS_Auto_and_Truck_Repair I’ve used this product for years with success but the launch product works ten times better and gets yourself a manometer and a mityvac gauge and learn how to use it correctly.
