Never had a dpf issue volkswagens seem to have good dpfs

They help stop lung cancer which is a good thing. Helps fu@k up the cars performance which is a bad thing depends on which side of the fence you sit. Performance of the car, or performance of the body.

This garbage is all lies for money and power. These people couldn't care less about cancer or the environment if the put effort into it.

And what if u dont tell them becuase they kinda wont know 💀💀

@@DarkReaper-or9el It's getting tested every year and it's really strict. Still have a DPF but a aggressive remap and got 4.2Mil parts.. It most be under 1.0Mil to pass.... So for me it will be the extra fee but you can delete it then if you want because if you show them money they don't care anymore... strange right? xD

​@Michaeltje89 in the uk they don't test yet :) so we good 😅

That’s it, my Frisian G ✌🏻🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 That €euro€ or 2 will save us all. So does the EU transfer the money to mother earths bank account? Asking for a friend 😆❤️

Yep very easy👍🏻

Well not really, it lose counter pressure cause the volume of the pipe is larger now, a brand new downpipe is better

How much did it cost ?

@@ataroosa8271 around 600 quid if I recall correctly. DPF gutting and performance remap.

Won't it impact the resale value as the car will be illegal to use on a public road and will need to be declared at point of sale to avoid any come back?

becausse you could not fix it right ?

yes it will

You’re welcome!

Good luck!

You too mate!

youll gonna smoke a lot and have to delete the dpf in the dme

This video and comment is great. It has me cracking up out loud. Use a gas torch. I got a better idea, and I'm going to write it down, remove the whole exhaust system from the engine block to the rear tip. Replace it with a new cherry bomb glasspak, with dual exhaust with chrome tip. Lol

Thanks 👍

No such thing as a throttle body on a diesel. They have anti shudder valves that look like a throttle body but they only close when switching the engine off to prevent runaway and cut the engine off instantly instead of shuddering and shaking for quiet a few seconds

What Daley said - it's to essentially save the engine if you get a runaway condition.

That's good to know..this is on my list but getting it down given how mine is located ..I've only recently had new turbo kit hg and much more

Did you tell him it didn’t have a dpf? On the sale

@@CheebaTimeTv whats it to you sir?

@@Joethecatholic I think he was curious as by all accounts we are to let them know on sake or risk being taken to court if where you're located it's against the law. I'm only stating what I believe he meant and facts . Dpf's are a pain

@@kevinhancock4064 Its not law in N.Ireland yet, so it doesn’t get checked at mot centre, and yes i did let the buyer know and he was cool.

Thanks Malc

If he means gutting it then yes

😀

Good luck

This is what im interested in too

My 120d has no dpf and passes easily with a stage 1 tune

I took my 120d to a mech they ended up refitting the EGR cooler without asking and then I took delivery and drove it on a 1200km trip, burned the bellows out of the EGR, smoke and soot everywhere, even outside the bonnet, melted several plastic components, yay for emissions crap eh

Has it passed the MOT George

I'm an independant tuner. I've heard stories (maybe bs) of DVSA Vehicle Examiners specifically looking for these modifications, and penalising MOT stations for not catching it. It's a tricky one, as if you pass the smoke test and metered test, you should be fine. But it's an automatic fail to tamper with any of the emissions control system(s). It's just a case of if they spot it

No. Diesels don’t require any amount of back pressure. Only gasoline engines need that. Diesels go better with no restrictions

​​@@benmmm7359No engines benefit from back pressure, you are thinking of exhuast scavenging. Either way I agree with you that a DPF will always be a big restriction to flow, especially when clogged up, so removing it will defiantly be an improvement.

Yep - DPF is like a huge silencer.. needs to be removed to increase any sound

42mm sds core bit … Bosch !

It can never get blocked again

They will be , don’t you worry about that 🤔

Have you still got the VW? ive had the same on my car but i wanna sell it.. not sure to mention it in the sale?

It will throw a fault for not seeing a difference in pressure from inlet to outlet.

Lack of pressure lol

No

@@GeorgeAusters thanks for your reply mate…what if I drill it small 3, 4 holes using a long masonry drill bit just to allow the gases passing through? Don’t want to remove all soot filter…

Depends on the car and how good the tuner is. I turned off EGR on my 1.6 TDI and DPF regen fine

You aren't paying them to click a button, you're paying them for their knowledge on how to do it

Cheers Chris!

diesels don’t get emissions testing

I had mine drilled on my van as the turbo went and all got stuck in it and blocked it, mine went through the M.O.T but I know someone I read online that it’s done on a smoke test so you won’t know until you try

@@conquester4890 before you go for MOT, change the air and fuel filters and fill up with v power derv and give it a good shoeing, also you can get Fortes MOT diesel treatment which lowers the emissions for MOT, i did it when i had my 170 b6 passat estate as I had the DPF gutted and mapped out no issues with emissions (that car is now scrapped due to other issue) so went out and bought a b6 138 57 plate which doesnt have DPF

That's a great comment, thanks for your wisdom​@@vikingsmb

Yep

About 30 mins

You could do but don’t think it’ll make a massive difference

Dpf sensor

It measure soot mass and weight

shut up if you dont know

its the exhaustback pressure sensor

@@e60tube90 it’s not measuring back pressure, if there is any back pressure there’s a clog. It measure soot mass weight and Level for regen.

Are you talking about the EGR valve too?

Hi Nathan how did it go, I've fitted a new turbo and oil feed with the mesh out also fitted a new pick up with mesh out. Want to blank the egr and empty the dpf.

@@paulgalloway1384 it went perfectly I've got a video on my channel if you would like to see it too, I've got my egr mapped out not blanked though

Going to give it a go I think

Hi again, doing it Monday, how thick would you say the filter is need to get some long drill bits to get through it

@@paulgalloway1384 Hi there, the filter is surprisingly soft so a chisel of even a flat head and a hammer works amazing, but If you wanna drill through it I'd say you might need a bit that's at least 30cm long from the top of my head

Hi, How is your car running performing after this...

Yes you need to have it remapped.

This is n47

🙌🏼

Yep👍🏻

Thé cat still in place 🤔😉

No

If you leave some inside then it'll end up falling apart and then rattling

3 holes of 10mm is enough

The turbo whistle and echoing noise should only happen if you delete your muffler.

I've just took mine off. Didn't completely gut it. I cleaned it with drwim cleaner and jet washed it then drilled 4 x 6 mm holes though. Put it back on. Took it for a spin. Blocked Dpf warning went off after 20 miles of motorway driving and seemed nippier as my Dpf was fully blocked. Only problem now is when take my foot off the revs I can hear the turbo hissing/spooling. Is this normal? Kind of worried myY turbo is about to pop... Reasure me hahha

Another crazy solution, maybe : If we replace the whole DPF muffler with an euro 3 catalyst??? There's some E46 catalysts on auto parts stores that has the same shape as the F series DPF. You won't have to drill nothing, just replace it with a new part. And you will have the catalyst functionality and better exhaust sound absorbing. I appreciate opinions. Thanks

You should make the buyer aware yes👍🏻

You need a healthy engine, clean intake etc and a good map

@@GeorgeAusters thanks I do plan on giving the car a service some injector fluid and a good run before ..I get the work done

Depends how healthy your engine is.. I had no issues on my 520d because the EGR was fully removed intake ports were cleaned and had a new intake manifold

Why would you want to do that?

What car do you have? For my Honda CRV 2010 I had to find the Honda Diagnotic Software online then plug my car into my laptop and clear the codes in HDS.

Your thoughts on the differential pressure sensor are mine exactly

@@sandwich.entity3810 it did try to regen aftet a while... so the SW update was mandatory. Still dont see the logic....

@@2WheelDerness thanks for the reply as was planning to do this on my mum's car so the heads up is useful. What problem did attemtoing to regen cause? Was it just black smoke occasionally or did it throw a code?

@@sandwich.entity3810 it wil regenerare constantly if is not delered by ECU. Not sure why this happens but is a must. The fuel consumption is huge and may cause some injectors to fail if you drive for a long time like this. I only let it 10 km to see what happens, no code yet but engine light will appear if you drive like this long enough.

@@2WheelDerness Ah okay that's frustrating, thank you for your advice!

100%, if you remove a DPF you MUST get it reprogrammed. Smoking can be reduced in the tuning and fuelling map.

As long as your engine is healthy you should be fine

On the 1 and 3 series yes.. The 5 series DPF is the one shown in this video

@@GeorgeAusters i purchased the egr delete for the n47 its arrived today, used you code so be fitting that on weekend as im having issues with mine throwing up codes

Yes

Well, unless you are friendly with your local garage, yes it will fail an MOT and is now a criminal offence to remove or modify the DPF and drive on a public road. As such, resale value of car will plummet as well 👍

Nope. If your engine is healthy then it will pass the MOT no problem👍🏻

@@GeorgeAusters erm, no as garages are now instructed to check if the model car came with a manufacturer fitted DPF and to check if it has been removed or MODIFIED. If so, automatic fail, irrelevant of emissions passing the test. This is why police now have a stop and check program for emission systems in the UK. Currently rather active in the Midlands I believe.

@@Dr.SkullScience77 Yep, you can't see if this DPF has been modified or not without removing it

@@Dr.SkullScience77 you’re uneducated please stop commenting a load of crap scaremongering

No this isn’t from the 320d👍🏻

Same motor and he doesn’t want to do regens a delete takes care of that

nah he could not fix it

Yes it’s possible

@@GeorgeAusters Thanks a lot for the reply!

I said particulate👍🏻

10:45 timing

Only a DPF in this box👍🏻

@@GeorgeAusters good to know. So Catalitic converter is in separate box, George ?

@@bastaboom163 it is. Catalitic converter is right after the turbo and the dpf is midway in the car. Two separate parts.

I've heard something like that too and I'm not sure about that on my car (Audi A4 2.0TDI) because the only thing I see is a Catalytic converter right behind the turbo and nothing else, just a straight pipe with a massive muffler at the end (sounds kinda cool for a *stock* diesel. Others sound like crap in my experience)

Needs mapping

Just think of it as a smoke screen

@@GeorgeAusters what do recommend mapping tool here in UK please. thanks

Will taking the dpf out cause a warning light

@George Lelliott not sure. Mine was already on so couldn't say

DPF doesn’t stop emissions, it’s to catch the soot

@@GeorgeAusters ahh OK. Do how come when a car fails mot. They say blast it down the motorway for 40 mins to re gen the Dpf. Then come back. And then emissions are always way lower.? Surely there's something in that?

@@connectlogic Soot is lower.

@@mcplutt does that mean emissions are lower if soot is lower?

@@connectlogic soot emissions are lower 🙂

Hard to say

No need, you just map them out

@@GeorgeAusters cheers buddy. I got v50 1.6 been giving me hassle. Think I'll do a delete.

This is how we roll in the uk 😂

@@chucky2316 OK. However, be careful with the filter because it contains platinum and barium (- 0.001%). Which is not very good for the respiratory tract. PS: I'm sorry for my bad English. but since I don't speak English, my friend Google translated it for me.

I appreciate what you’re saying but insurance companies have no idea when it comes to checking if a car has been remapped or whether an exhaust has been gutted… I know lots of people who have had to claim and never ever had an issue

@@GeorgeAusters Like I said it everyones choice however if the vehicle is involved in a serious incident regardless of fault the Police and Insurance company will check for vehicle compliance and have the tools to check and know first hand, should they find an undecalred map or altered emissions system they have the right to reject the claim and the liability for any damage caused and will become your personal liability including any third party damage or claim. I put this out here to ensure you are aware of the implications and just because you know people who have had claims without any issues does not negate the law relating to an accident or serious claim. The insurance compnay will always check if the contract between insurer and individual is correct especially in the event of a large serious claim and is the time you need your insurance. It is now illegal for any MOT tester to pass any DPF that has been tampered with or welded without a satifactory explination and new regs are looking to be introduced to check for empty or altered DPFs. This will mean thousands of cars failing needing replacment DPFs to obtain a vailid MOT. I am not an eco warrior but this is a major issue for the future and you would have been better off cleanning or flushing your DPF and saving you from possible major legal issues for your future and wanted to ensure that anyone following your advise has all the facts and risks to enable a decision which they fully understand the possible consequences.

You can’t see a map? A remap just overwrites the existing map

@@GeorgeAusters The check sum will be different from the original flash so tells you that the map has changed and yes with the correct tools you can see everything so is not invisable, all software leaves change logs and if you completely reflash nothing will match the original OEM check sums so altered software.

If you have a not-at-fault accident then it doesn’t matter if your insurance is valid or not. The other party’s insurance deals with everything

May need resetting with ISTA

@@GeorgeAusters Can you explain what ISTA is please

Should pass fine if engine is healthy

Even without the sensors your DPF will eventually get clogged up.

@@athanasiuslanius559 I mean remove the DPF and trick the computer into thinking it's still there.

@@athanasiuslanius559 I mean remove the DPF and trick the computer into thinking it's still there.

@@herbertbell9438 You can. To do that you'll have to remap the ecu and convert it to perform as older models. But they charge a for that.

@@athanasiuslanius559 That gets into the truck's software. No one around here will do that it's illegal.

перепрошить надо потом, он сказал на 8:31 миуте

A hidden fault code if not mapped out yes

@@GeorgeAusters thanks bro I wrote that before watching the end lol Will it appear on the dash?

Not on this car no
