You are far too modest, even in main dealers, many technicians are just parts jockeys, connect the clip read the errors and change parts, there are a few good mechanics, but they are hard to find, far too many just read the codes look it up and change loads of expensive parts, excellent work.
Had Renault master 2019, 69 reg sid321 got check engine on, lost power. Total 11 DTC codes which couldn't remove (back after start). Impressive technician knowledge hats of for that man
We use the Launch DPF fluid in the workshop, and I did have concerns about the exhaust output should a H&S inspector turn up unannounced. I spoke with Launch support, but they were unable to provide a datasheet on the fluid. They did advise that the fluid is non-caustic, essentially soap based and non hazardous. The Launch DPF fluid gun is way overpriced, we use a modified oil spray gun with a flexible nozzle which works well.
Jimmy I popped in to see you on Tuesday morning and I didn’t say that you do forced regenerations so that makes me the only one then . Ps Glad to see you back on the tools ur hands looked really white and clean Tuesday mate . 😂
What ODB2 tool would recommend that can register a new battery on a Vauxhall/ Renault traffic? I own a Launch 919e this tool will not register a new battery on these vehicles.
Possibly main dealers now have fitters not mechanics. The link is in the name. Also perhaps they don't consider it a recognised process and no 100%guarantee and probably would not be able to charge for a revisit.
Could i ask what are the symptoms of this blocked pipe ? My Renault Scenic 67 Reg has been diagnosed with it . I am getting a stuttering in low gear up to around 6mph then everything is fine as i speed up . Could this stuttering be as a result of the blocked DPF pipe ??
What alternative similar cleaner can you suggest for us here in the United States? We only can buy the tools but they don’t offer the cleaner. We also tried ordering online from Launchtech UK but they also don’t deliver to the USA. Appreciate the help. Thanks.
Jimmy, ash accumulation failure is just a calculated measurement, so most of the time it is a false indication of actual ash, and is actually just soot accumulation that is unburned. generally true ash cannot pass through the DPF because it's larger than what can pass through the filter. if you're lucky, sometimes it can be pushed back out the inlet on a DPF cleaning machine. you probably won't ever see a true Ash accumulation because it's at the end of life of the DPF. The definition of ash is actually metallic contamination mostly caused by engine oil additives. using the wrong motor oil with high ash content and additives that are not compatible with a DPF can cause early accumulation and failure or end of life for the DPF. technically, you should never use the diagnosis ash accumulation unless soot cleaning fails and the residual restriction that cannot be cleared would most likely be permanent ash.
I’m in your area and have a 2015 trafic no lights on or problems as yet its done 85000 should I get it done ? What sort of price would it be for you to clear it out for me? Many thanks ryan

You are a top mechanic! I take my hat off to you sir!
Thats amazing is that stuff. I removed and had cleaned off van . The turbo was knackered though and passing oil into dpf. Great video.
Thanks for sharing
Nice one Jimmy, good video,back once again with the dpf master👍
With the ill behaviour 😆
@@ORileysAutos that's you mate😂
Excellent Jimmy nice job 💯
Yep I can second you saying on multiple occasions that you don't like to do forced regens when you clean with the Lauch Dpf cleaner
Quality mate thanks for your efforts and sharing your experience with us 🙏
No problem 👍
I could do with you here in south west france to help me out with low boost issues, lol, great videos mate, a man who knows his stuff

You need to ask for the MSDS. Legally they have to provide that.
Top man. Your renault traffic clogged dpf teach us how to clean renault master 2019 dpf save me few £k. Hats off for You

Nice to meet you

Amazing job! I lf you don't mind me asking!, why you don't like to force the regen on DPF? Is that bad for the engine?

Can you recommend a windscreen cutting cable?
Another 1st class video what areas do you normally cover
Bedfordshire
Firstly fantastic video. What model scan tools were you using in this video.
Launch Euro Tab 3 from www.launchtech.co.uk
I have a van with the same problem. How much does it cost to do a service like that?
O Rileys . So, you don't recommend doing a forced regeneration on the dpf?
You believe that it is better to use dpf cleaning fluid
grazie❤
👍🏻

Hi ive the same issue very impressed are u based in ireland at all ?
Can U reset dpf soot by your diagnostic?

Wynns?
Would DPF cleaning fluid clean out the in cabin heater matrix?
Doubt it

Yes 👍🏻
I’ve put the launch cleaner through the exhaust pressure sensor and now my Vivaro b 1.6 won’t trick over to start any advise will be appreciated
Sounds like you backfilled the cylinders. Remove the glow plugs and see if it ticks over

Did you take it too him.
How can I contact this fella
Can anyone do this in Southampton
Is the launch better than the autel in your opinion? I have a autel which couldnt do anything on a isuzu dmax. Thanks
You need both
And Fiat talento 🚛
👍🏻
Talks about having no idea about when the DPF fluid is in stock
immediate cut to a dozen bottles
I had these before the stock ran out 👍🏻
I expect he uses a lot, so keeps enough on hand.
Kind of how you run a business.
