After getting the ferry from the Isle of Arran back to mainland Scotland, we had issues with the motorhome again.
This time it was the motorhome going in to limp mode as we had a blocked DPF.
The diagnostics came up with codes P2463 and P246C.
In this video Karl shows you how he cleaned the blocked DPF and what he used to clean it.
Our motorhome is an Elddis Encore 255 on a Peugeot Boxer cab and is a 68 plate model with Euro 6.

Thanks to all of our Patrons for their amazing support.
Glad to see someone used both a strong alkaline cleaner and a strong acid, they both break down different byproducts of the dpf.
Thanks very much. I did my research before doing it. It did help for a while but we had to get a new one in the end. Thanks for the comment. Karl.
@roaminginraymond surprising, did mine around 8 months ago, backwashed mine around 30 times for several hours, and used air as well. It dropped from 250mbar to 50 at 3k idles a 6mbar now as well. Did you reset all the parameters in the ecu after you cleaned it??
Yeah did all the resets. Unfortunately it was all broken up inside. Great to hear it worked well for you as these things cost a small fortune to replace.
@roaminginraymond yes they are ridiculous price for a proper original one. The aftermarket ones often fail as well. They have fewer restrictions, which the ecu doesn't like so it throws a code again.
Nice handy work! I imagine a lot of Motorhome owners are taking notes on this vlog 👍Graeme
Thanks Graeme. Hope noone else needs it but unfortunately they probably will.
Excellent job by Karl as always! He knows it all, well done ;-)
Thanks. Yes, he knows his stuff.😁
Good that you can fix these things Karl 👍
Definitely. A right pain to do though.
Looking an interesting method. I used to clean out 2 x stroke engine exhausts by putting paraffin inside and then putting them onto a bonfire. Showing my age now. I am hoping I never have to use your method. But if it works why not. Thanks for sharing. Cheers from old George
Thanks George. Just glad Karl's a mechanic and knows what he's doing.😁
Karl used to be a Lambretta youth, so he will be well used to the cleaning out the old 2-strokers 😁
You're right John and he said he used to do the same thing as George lol.
@@roaminginraymond The good old 2-stroke days.. I have played with many a 2 stroke exhaust silencer trying to put bigger outlets pipes on them to get about half a horsepower out of the engine lol
Karl said he'd do loads of tuning. He said he had a Vespa with two carburettors. Means nowt to me.😆
Thanks for sharing, Em 👍 x
You're welcome Em.xx
Hi- did you diagnose the faults yourself with a diagnostic tool? Thanks
Yes, he's an ex mechanic so already had diagnostic equipment anyway. But he knew what it was without the diagnostics. These DPF issues with the adblue are an utter pain in the A! We also don't know if doing what he did in this video worked, as we had issues after this. He said realistically you need it cleaning professionally or a new one.
Nice one Karl. All the best. 👍🐾🚐🐾😎
Thanks Rob.
Fingers crossed you've sorted the issue.🤞
Yeah hopefully.😊
Mr B is leaving the audience in suspense 🤣 The fluid extract did look quite dirty.
Yeah. definitely dirty. Hopefully it's done the trick.
Hi. I'm new to UA-cam and came across your channel, I must say how interesting it is, I love your dog he is so beautiful, gonna start watching more of your videos.
Thanks so much John, glad you are enjoying our videos. Nanook is his name and he is a beautiful boy.
Just like cleaning a two stroke silencer.
Karl said he totally agrees.
What I've been told is to rev the engine in 3 and 4 up to about 3 or 4 thousands rpm when u can to get rid of the carbon
We were trying to thrape it but it didn't work and then it conked. Hopefully it's all OK now.
So what type of vans / engines have a dpf filter I have no idea if my Ford custom has one lol - not seen posts stating challenges with them
Karl said virtually every new diesel vehicle has a DPF filter. They're designed to cut emissions. It started in around 2005 we think.
... ooOh the suspense! Lol
😆😆
Yep let’s hope it’s sorted now for a while at least
Hopefully.🤞
Could you post what tools are needed to remove and re-installing the DPF? Thanks!
17mil socket, a 10 mil socket, a 10 mil spanner, a 15 and 16 mil spanner, a t25 torques, a hammer and a flat screwdriver and some wd40.
@@roaminginraymond Amazing. Thanks for your prompt reply!
@@basshead1451 you're welcome.😁
Yeah, I knew all that..... ahem.... I know who to come to now, when John ain't available. lmao
Lol, always welcome to get in touch if you're in the doggy doings, you know that.😁
@@roaminginraymond Cool. 👍
😁
Two people to look after your mechanical troubles, you are blinking spoiled Mr M 🤣
Lol, he certainly is.😁
Did the fault codes stay off once you had cleared them? If you use a product called Oilsyn Hybrogen (not Hydrogen) that helps keep the DPF clean by adding the product to the diesel fuel.
Yes, the fault codes have stayed off since clearing. Thanks for the info.👍
is that s 2.0 or 2.2?
2 litre.
I was looking for Helen underthere silly me
Lol, funny.😆
What a nightmare Karl, how often do you have to do that m8. tc muka
Hopefully just the once Charlie. Yep, a real pain.
Or just do what I did and buy an old bird that doesn't have one fitted.? 😉🤣👍
Completely agree. Told him we need to get rid and buy an older one lol.
Well done Karl .good job . Lucky you’re slim and young enough to slide under your van , age and size restricts me I’m afraid . Bonus for you was definitely saving money . Byyyeee 🚐👍
It was jacked up and on a chick at the back too as the drives wonky, so makes things easier. Yep, good job he's a mechanic and knows what he's doing. Byyyeeeee
