The original issue was the EGTS that had died causing the car to go into limp mode and miss several DPF burns ect. I took out the DPF and cleaned It out (seems to be intact), Replaced the faulty sensor (which was hella expensive for some unknown reason).. Now I am attempting to do a forced Regen and a DPF assessment with my scan tool.
Forced regeneration is a process that is performed on a diesel particulate filter (DPF) when it becomes filled with soot and an active regeneration cannot be performed to resolve the problem. During regeneration, the DPF is heated to a high temperature, typically between 600 and 900 degrees Fahrenheit, which burns off the soot that hasIn number 6 it sounds like your dpf was blocked (dpf forced regen should be carried out with an oil and filter (if excesive oil degredation is shown) In number 9 Iam suprised a dealer did not chase you up for the fault (really they shouldn't have let the car go out as they o not if it's dangerous or not do they). I have a 2010 reg Mazda 3 1.6 diesel (same engine as Focus) with DPF issues.. Had a forced re-gen done twice in the past 14 months. Engine light on & diognostics telling me the module that injects the Eloys fluid into the DPF is not working. About Β£600 to fix.. So I want to use this additive stuff or at least give it a try. Which is best ??? TXxUo3z. 226 10 376 424 194 246 1 124 378
