Does that K2 work? I've just been to a garage, they charged me £200 to diagnose the problem and telling me is £600 to clean it 🤣

i know I'm kinda randomly asking but do anybody know of a good website to watch new tv shows online ?

@Alessandro Noel Flixportal :P

@Joseph Timothy thank you, I went there and it seems like a nice service :D I appreciate it!!

@Alessandro Noel glad I could help :)

Hi Perry! Thank you for your comment and your concern. And no, it wouldn't damage the catalytic convertor or the DPF. Of course it is important that this decarbonization treatment is carried out by a professional motor mechanic who is able to assess and to diagnose the technical matters of the car. Thanks!

Of course! The car is programmed to regenerate at times to keep the DPF clean. However, it happens rather ofter that the DPF is too loaded with soot that it can't regenerate itself anymore. Not even at higher rpm during a highway drive. That's when JLM products can be a good option!

@@jlmlubricants Just do what Jon Snell said on a regular basis (IF REQUIRED) and Don't let the soot build up?

It's not about the rpm when dpf regenerates passively in a highway. It's about constant speed to reach 600 deg celcius and keep it up until regeratation ends.

Can you regenerate without having to wait for the warning light come on

@@bubblehead46 Yes. Drive with the engine above 3000RPM for 15 minutes or so regularly, say monthly, will cause the DPF to heat up and naturally regenerate itself. Most diesel engines inject extra fuel during the exhaust stroke to superheat the DPF when it requires regenerating.

Very sorry to learn about your troubles with your car. I am afraid we cannot solve any specific mechanical or diagnostics vehicle issues. With our products we can clean and also prevent and condition parts of the (diesel) fuel system. For your specific questions we can only advise to consult a local specialist workshop who are good at diagnosing specific matters. Hope this is of help to you!

Just wait

pre-2009? i had a 2009 golf mk5 tdi - none of this rubbish fitted, none of these problems.

Thank you!

Thank you!

Hi Paul, many thanks for your suggestion. Surely there are more options to clean a dpf. At JLM we have chosen for the DPF Cleaning toolkit with the 2-stage cleaning procedure with or without using JLM in tank additives to clean excessive soot from the DPF. This is a proven method and the preferred option for The DPF Doctor Network. As far as ash goes, we can only recommend to take off the DPF and send it to a specialized cleaning company. With chemicals it is not possible to clean out ash from a DPF in-situ. We have not tried not tested the use of the materials that you suggest so I am sorry but we cannot make any claim or statement on this. But thank you for your thoughts!

You could just remove the DPF and clean it that way also

Thank you for your comment! And yes, this is a typical DPF Cleaning treatment meant for the professional motor mechanic indeed. On our website you can find some very good fuel additives to clean your DPF. However when the soot trap is severely blocked we advise you to consult an accredited DPF Doctor. Thanks!

Thank you for your question. We use this channel only to inform people about our own products and related topics. We do not know competitive products well enough to make a statement on them. All we can say is that Lucas are a well known brand. For detailed information I would advise you to contact them directly. Alternatively from our KZfaq channel, you can visit our website and read a lot of additional information on DPF's and how to clean them www.jlmlubricants.com Thanks!

Hi David! Many thanks for your question. Surely this particular DPF cleaning treatment can be used a preventative measure, but you would really overdo it. As a preventative measure we advise you to use one of our 'lighter' DPF product, the JLM DPF Regen Plus product (J02200). The 'ReGen Plus' is designed as a preventative measure for DPF's. This is a fuel additive which you can add to the diesel fuel tank yourself. You can get it at a DPF Doctor member or a motor factor. Let me know it this works for you. Thanks!

@@jlmlubricants I have been using regen plus, just wondering if I need to use something else as my DPF seems to regenerating too often?

Hi David, you can use the J02200 ReGen Plus fuel additive not only when the DPF warning light comes on. However, when the light keeps coming on, this may indicate some mechanical failure. We then advise you to get your car checked by a DPF Doctor member local to you. Thanks!

Hi Jonas! Many thanks for your question. In fact we get asked this a lot, whether or not JLM’s diesel particulate filter cleaners also clean out the ash. The answer is no... Ash cannot be removed by a fuel additive or a clean and flush treatment while in situ. Ash can only be removed mechanically. There are specialized companies that offer this service. Thanks!

Thank you for your question! In fact the JLM DPF Cleaning Fluid followed by the JLM DPF Flush Fluid will clean any oily residu from the particle filter. However solid ash particles cannot be cleaned via a chemical liquid. Ash requires a mechanical treatment. Thanks!

Thank you for your question! The answer is no, this decarbonization treatment is only for diesel cars. Sorry... I could recommend the JLM Petrol Emission Reduction Treatment though. www.jlmlubricants.com/en-us/products-additives/jlm-petrol-emission-reduction-treatment

@@jlmlubricants Hi and thanks for answering. Does this Hurt catalytic converter or what.

@@HUBONEN Possibly, but we do not know what effect it might have. The catalytic convertor works differently than a diesel particulate filter. And also, this treatment to clean DPF's is specifically designed for this. Not for petrol cars. Hence we have never tested it either on petrol cars.

I think it's called a manometer / similar.

We are in the process of setting up. Please forward your details via info@jlmlubricants.com and we will bring you in touch accordingly. Many thanks and regards from a sunny Amsterdam👌

The idea is to feed the dpf cleaning fluid right before the substrate so that the pressure flow feeds the fluid into the filter substrate. So maybe you can use that hole or an alternative one. When in doubt consult a dpf specialist. Thanks!

@@jlmlubricants thank you for the reply. I've seen in other videos from O'Reilly's autos that in those cars with only the after-dpf hose connected, he disconnects the adblue nozzle(good idea to also clean that) and adds the solution before the dpf from there. Would that work? Car is Audi A4 B9 2.0 TDI (DETA engine).

@@alexandrospanagiotou6309It is important to find the nearest access point for the fluid, looking from the front side of the dpf. For AdBlue injector cleaning we have a dedicated product that has to be added to the AdBlue fluid itself. This cleans both the inside and outside of the amble injector (crystallization)

@@jlmlubricants for the Audi A4 b9, it looks like the adblue injector hole seems to be the perfect place to add the solution pre-dpf. To your point, it is important to use a good product for the adblue nozzle itself, but that is a different subject. I am just trying to understand what is the best approach for cars where the pre-dpf pressure hose is not connected ( implying air ambient pressure number is taken as pre-dpf value).

@@alexandrospanagiotou6309 Usually we opt for the lambda sensor when the pressure sensor is difficult to reach. We are not familiar with vehicle specific dpf's as we are manufacturer of the fluids. But maybe this is an option for you, using the lambda sensor hole.

Thank you for your question Dimitru! Usually we use the front pressure sensor of the DPF to administer the stage 1 and stage 2 fluids. We have a detailed instruction video available on this channel as well.

Thank you for your question! JLM Lubricants are based in The Netherlands. The DPF Doctor is based in England. You can check their website to find a local dealer near you👌

Hi Stefan, thank you for your question! We have another video which takes you through the DPF cleaning proces in some more detail.

the fatter pipe seems to be the one to put the cleaner thru.....i followed the pipe on my A3 and it seems to be the one before the dpf......check yourself before you do anything........there is one pipe before the dpf and one after....it would be a waste to put the cleaner thru the pipe After the dpf .....good luck

Good morning from Amsterdam and thank you for your question! We are the manufacturer of the actual fluids and we do not execute the DPF cleanings ourselves. However, we work closely with for example The DPF Doctor Network and this is what I found at their site: How much does The DPF Doctor charge for a DPF Assessment?

Je suis désolé, nous ne parlons pas français. Et Google translate ne donne pas non plus une traduction correcte de votre message. Pourriez-vous reformuler votre question?

A very good question indeed! The excessive soot however is burnt within the DPF by catalyzing the collected soot. The JLM DPF Cleaning Treatment ensures that excessive soot is redistributed within the substrate and also cleaned from other residue (oil) so the soot particles will burn in the DPF as they were meant to do in the first place.

@@jlmlubricants thanks for your response. is it available in India?

@@jlmlubricants is there any social media place where I can connect with you. I have a few questions, thanks for your prompt response earlier.

@@quixotic_erudite I am sorry but currently we do not have an importer in India.

Thank. you for your message! In this particular instance The DPF Doctor took the car out for a test drive to also initiate the regeneration proces while driving. Both options, test drive or forced regen are ok to do. But you have to do either one in order to ensure a successful clean following the procedure of the JLM DPF Toolkit treatment. Thanks!

@@jlmlubricants thanks for the reply, what about cars with DPF Systems that are under the car ?

@@jlmlubricants also, do you offer training days where we can come to you fir the day or 2 and pay for it please?

@@pdonneky Same procedure applies! But then you would need to get the car on a ramp to be able to connect the JLM DPF Cleaning Toolkit to the front pressure sensor of the soot trap. Thanks!

@@pdonneky There are various options regarding training. Where are you from?

Petrol engine has no DPF, you can get a engine carbon clean tho.

Hi! Thank you for your questions. I am sorry this particular procedure only works for a diesel engine.

Hi Terry, the check engine warning light comes on for a reason. It is incorrect from the garage to inform you to disregard the light!!! I would advise you to go and see an accredited member of the DPF Doctor Network. Please go to www.the-dpf-doctor.com/find-an-accredited-member/ to find a DPF Doctor local to you. Thanks!

i would advise taking the car up the motorway and holding the revs at about 3500 RPM for about 5 miles - that will clear all the soot out and allow the dpf to regen.

Hi Terry iv got Audi A3 and Iv got the same issue would you let me know when you sort your car out please

Generally it's the front pressure sensor of the DPF.

Here is the link to the instruction video kzfaq.info/get/bejne/fbBorcl92Nuvn30.html

Thank you for your comment! No, this treatment is only meant for diesel DPF's. We will be launching a GPF (or PPF, Petrol Particulate Filter) Cleaner as an in tank fuel additive shortly. Thanks!

Dear Asad, thank you for your question. Unfortunately ash cannot be cleaned from a DPF with a chemical. Ash can only be removed by specialist companies and you would need to take the particulate filter off and send it to them. Thanks

you dont. DPF will self regenerate IF you treat it right. Someone who does city driving vs someone who does motorway driving. People who city drive will need to go out there way once every couple of weeks and do a good drive to self clean it. if you dont do this... what you see in the above video will happen.

"You dont" Well, at least not until your dpf fills with all the ash from all the regens

Thank you for your question Yayy! In fact we get this question asked quite frequently. Ash collected in the DPF cannot be cleaned out or be dissolved by a chemical liquid while in situ. To remove the ash, the DPF has to be taken off and it requires a different procedure. So please read carefully as sometimes on social media both soot and ash seem to get mixed up. And generally most cases of DPF blockages are caused by excessive soot loading and not so much by ash. But ash cannot be cleaned out by a chemical treatment while in situ. Soot however can be cleaned/removed very well. At JLM Lubricants we have a variety of Diesel Particulate Filter blockage treatments, both preventative as well as problem solving.

@@jlmlubricants I thought so mate, yes a lot of companies claim to remove ash content, when actually they just seem to remove soot. I've got one of your guys coming to test the car tomorrow and check the dpf over, had a split boost pipe for a while however want showing on a diagnostic, looks like its caused the dpf to fill over time and lot let it regen sufficiently. Sure you college will sort it tomoz 👌👍

@@jay3series Ok! You did the right thing to let a professional assess your vehicle! Thanks again!

We insert the fluids via the front pressure sensor of the DPF.

@herobo123456 There is no such sensor as a Temperature Pressure Sensor...

Thank you for your message! It’s not something that we would recommend as we do not know what affect it will have on the DPF and what it will do to exhaust temperatures. Our products are designed and testes specifically for this particular use when these Diesel Particulate Filters are blocked with an excess of soot. Can't really provide you with a proper answer on that one, sorry. Thanks!

@@jlmlubricants I'vew done some research, and as long the temp of the working acid solution does not cross over 190'c all is sound. After 200'c there chemical reaction with some of the parts becomes active, with 80% possibly to damage of the dpf components.

@@daltoniks cleaned mine using caustic soda......didnt clean out all the caustic soda before using the car and ended up destroying 3 dpf sensors before i finally cleared all the caustic soda out ........light still came back on 4 months later.......useful information about not being able to get rid of the ash tho.......was wondering why there were so many A3s up for sale''''

Thanks!

After a good clean, the filter is a good as new....

This is not a straight forward answer but we have customers still running the original DPF at 300,000 miles and it really depends on how the vehicle is maintained. The dealer would fit a new DPF at this point.

@@jlmlubricants The car is W211 320CDI V6. Maintained perfectly since I have it 2016. Before me IDK. I had an issue with the turbine in 2017 and they told me I have to get rid of the CAT and DPF and recycle the turbine. Did so, and there are no issues til date, but where I live there is no problems if you drive without dpf and cat... now I have to move in another country where if I want to drive it legaly I have to install the cat and DPF.... Since I had no idea this will come to me I have left the DPF and CAt at the service because I did not need them. Now I asked the service owner if we can put back some second hand if we clean them and he told me that there is no chance a used DPF and CAT will work properly after cleaning (not more than 20 30K). So I`ve started digging online and found out from many vids including yours that actually that is not true and I do not need to pay 2000 Euro per for new CAT and DPF but still I do not want to sell the car because it`s working perfectly and doing it`s job flawless as a family car. What would you advise ?!?!?

Hi John, thank you for your message! You car is actually fitted with a reservoir which holds regeneration fluid. This fluid must be topped up, that is correct. This can only be done via a professional motor mechanic and it is not a DIY procedure. At JLM we have the fluid for your car: JLM DPF Refill Fluid www.jlmlubricants.com/en-us/products-additives/jlm-diesel-dpf-refill-fluid

Thank you for your message Wasim! It is difficult to say when the next warning light comes on. Do you know the cause of the initial time the light went on? Did the professional determine why the DPF got blocked? This blocking can be caused by a mechanical failure of a component, or it can be caused by frequent driving in stop and go traffic. If it is caused by driving in stop and go (city) traffic it is important to take your car for a longer, high way drive to allow your to complete a full regeneration. Alternatively at JLM we have products to help your car with making these 're gens'. Check our JLM Diesel ReGen Plus for example. Thanks!

Hi, Sohail! According to the European emissions standards (Euro 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6), all vehicles must have emissions control systems to limit the gases expelled into the environment. Failure to comply can result in vehicle seizure and fines. However, regardless of legal requirements, these systems are integrated into the vehicle's circuitry, and if not properly bypassed, they can cause problems with existing sensors and continuously generate errors, disrupting the proper functioning of the vehicle and its adjacent sensors. JLM Lubricants avoids all these costs with high-quality preventive maintenance, using DPF cleaning additives for when there is already a problem, but, above all, using preventive measures to prevent DPF blockage, interrupted regenerations, and consequently, oil deterioration and blockage of lubrication channels that can lead to the failure of internal engine components.

@@AB-cg9np thank you for the correction. If I wanted to be negative I would say this. When one has dirty DPF filter, dirt in DPF is last on your problem list. DPF gets dirty because your combustion is bad. Combustion gets bad when your engine has issues. In good working car DPF will be cleaned out just by long driving on highway, so this cleaning proces can speed it up and it makes sense only if one is sure engine is fine.
