I see a DPF warning in the instrument cluster 😅. However information shared is correct. Thank you.
Hello. My car is at 330k km atm, original dpf on it still. 3.0l diesel, om642 engine code. Its been driven normally, but being a diesel I bought it for mostly intra-city driving, so I press the pedal when given the chance. I think the issue with people and their dpf problem is getting a high power diesel engine, then they drive for saving fuel and everything doesn't get up to optimal temperature. That's very bad for a diesel, especially for one over 1.6l. The fuel consumption is low anyway, just press the pedal and let the engine breathe. If not, buy a 1.0-2.0 petrol engine, diesel is not for your use.
Exactly this is what I've been telling people all around, if you want to buy a diesel car and drive it like a 80 yrs old man then just don't buy it go for naturally aspirated petrol engine and drive it very slow it'll give you same mileage figures with no worries of dpf issues
Much needed information. Thanks a lot bro.
You're welcome bro 🙋🏻♂️
Thanks man, as I bought diesel altroz I had so many doubts about DPF I follow same driving style now. Subscribed
Thankyou sir, glad that I am able to help lot of people 🙋🏻♂️
Did u faced same issues again
What is millage of your car, when you bought the car the what was initial millage or does millage increase after car run some km?
Modern cars have been tested strongly before selling to the customers sir, so even after some kms running there won't be a huge difference, but yes once engine runs 1 or 2k kms it will give 2-3 kms more mileage
Check out this video sir, I had made this video in the very 1st month of my car back in 2020 where I achieved 30 kmpl mileage at constant speed of 70
ua-cam.com/video/oDQYRxwJeyo/v-deo.html
Can we use the same technique for a brand new car.did you use the same technique when your car was new or after certain thousand kms.. kindly reply
First of all extremely sorry for super late reply after 5 months, when your car is very new Diesel BS6 or 6.2 then for 1st 1000 kms fo easy on your car be it Diesel car or Petrol car, after that once you cross 1000 kms if you are using a Diesel car which has dpf filter then drive it bit hard like shown in the video to avoid clogging of dpf filter, if you have an expensive diesel car then it'll have a dpf clearing button / feature then no need to manually drive it hard to keep it to optimum temperature
Hi Bro, Thanks for making this video, One Question please.. It is about one year that you created this video now, have you had any DPF issues in this one year, is the driving method still working? or any more inputs or new tips? Kindly share. Thank you.
Hi bro sorry for late reply, absolutely not I still never ever had any dpf clogging issues or anything and I still drive in same style and that is my anyway normal way of driving so its like natural for me and just had been to Goa last week by car and was pushing car real hard on overtakes and open stretches still got 21.6 kmpl of mileage with AC always on and total 4 people in car with luggage in boot and now my car has completed only 13k kms Note : my city running or everyday running is almost less to none still work from home and using car only on weekends still never ever got dpf issue
@@daninwheels1006 awesome to know such a detailed notes. Thanks brooo
@@veeras2020 You're welcome 🙋🏻♂️
This technique is good once the car crosses 2k km. For a new car during run in period high rpms can be counter-productive
That's alright but modern cars are properly tested and then launched, I believe in not caring too much for things as I have experienced bad things happening to the things I took too much care for, btw now my car has touched 22k kms and didn't get any dpf issues not even once till date
Altroz xm plus petrol lu ya diesel hi lu
Dpf ka issues hai bas
14k Yearly running
Bhai lelo Diesel, petrol mai maza nahi hai Diesel ka feel hi alag hai powerful and very torque-ki engine, baas dpf ka dhyaan rakhna car ekdum bhi pyaarse nahi chalana thoda bhagao car ko toh dpf ka issue nahi ayega, baki depends on your budget as well
Can we manualy park regen the car or this option comes only when DPF warning light is showing up? Please assist
I didn't understand your question properly sir, but the point of this video is avoidance of DPF issue rather than solving it
If you see properly I didn't have any DPF warning light on or issues I just demonstrated on how to drive to avoid it
If i run a longtrip once a month only can this issue be avoided??
@@jaisinghkang7247 Yes ofcourse I have hardly done only 2 300+ kms trip in 1 entire year, it does not matter how short or long trip you do you need to drive it bit rough with heavy foot so that car's engine/exhaust heats up properly and DPF issue is avoided
I am about to buy a Tata harrier , I may not be able to redline it like this due to the area I live in, can I rev hard when the car is parked , will that act as clearing the DPF if yes for how long do I need to do it.
As far as my knowledge if you rev hard car parked in a place 1st thing it will take lot of time to heat up (literally 25-30 mins noise pollution hoga voh alag hi problem) the actual dpf exhaust area as car is resting it has no stress on it so I don't think so that will help you sir
Oh but if you are buying Harrier then you are tension free as Harrier has Add Blue 15L tank in it, it skips dpf issue automatically so no worries only you need to keep a check on it, it has same indication like our diesel indicator in instrument cluster. So go for Harrier Bindass.
@@daninwheels1006 thank you , that clears a lot.
@@GurpreetSingh-sc3rj You're welcome sir
My drive is 90% in city with about 1000 kms per month, at 10 lakh OTR i want a diesel car primarily because of the torque and fuel efficiency compared to turbo petrol cars. For example - everyday i need to redline once on 1st 2 gears so that the dpf doesn't gets clogged right?
Yes sir that is right everyday redline car atleast once or twice in especially 2nd and 3rd gear and you'll most likely never have dpf issue or very rarely have it, but make sure you don't redline when your car engine is cold or you just started your car in morning or so let it run for 10-15 mins so that engine heats up little bit then go full bonkers in 2nd and 3rd gear
@@daninwheels1006 if i am not wrong your running per month is around 600 kms right?
@@deerghayuphukan1215 Even lesser than that, my office isn't open so I am still WFH and my car just keeps standing for 5 days without moving an inch but those 2 days when I have week off I drive it really good for around 100 kms and obviously following that redline trick, basically driving is my fav pass time so yah I just drive enjoying music for 1-2 hours for those 2 days
@@daninwheels1006 i must say with that low running for a BS6 diesel and driving in city limits and not having dpf clogged in 1.5 years of ownership is remarkable.
@@deerghayuphukan1215 Yes its all in the way you drive it, dpf issue can be avoided just by bringing car to optimum heating levels, people fail to do that as they drive too slow for mileage I don't care about mileage my mid always shows 13.5 to max 15 in city as I drive with heavy foot
I have purchased a new scorpio-n z8l...when i took my delivery they said dont go beyond 100km as the car is new and needs breaking in..so they told me drive it normally and dont over revv the engine..so is it ok to revv the engine to redline to avoid dpf issues...i have done around 1.2k kilometres and no issues so far regarding dpf. Just askikg to avoid the issue in future
As far as I know all modern cars are tested a lot during production so it's absolutely fine to redline your car once in a day, as your car is new don't actually redline it very harshly but just bring it close to redline don't hit the redline or rev limiter mark as engine still needs good 2.5k-3k kms to set in properly
But do drive it normally giving it hard acceleration sometimes and sometimes smooth acceleration, sometimes heavy load like climbing slopes etc as when engine will get used to all types of load so in future it'll always give you good mileage and power
Which one is good? Honda Amaze diesel or Nexon diesel?
Honestly these 2 cannot be compared, 1 is a bigger car with bit more features (Nexon) and other is a smaller car and segments are also different, me being a Tata loyal customer obviously I'll support Nexon bcz it is indeed a very promising and strong product but depends on you both cars are very good in their places.
Which bs6 fuel u are using in your altroz diesel?
Bro BS6 fuels are available at each and every fuel station so no need to worry, but just to answer your question I fill up at my nearest HP petrol pump as it's near to my house, if you want super pure Diesel then try Shell Petrol Pumps they are good but normal regular diesel costs Rs. 103 in shell which is like Rs. 94 at any other fuel station
@@daninwheels1006 ok thanks 👍👍
i am planning to buy altroz deisel. my usage is city 80% and 20% Highway. but cos of dpf issue confused with altroz and baleno. any suggestions ?
Bro I don't understand who put all stupid rumours in people's head that Altroz or any of BS6 diesel cars have dpf issues, its absolutely bullshit if you don't drive it properly then the dpf filter gets clogged and then its called as dpf issue, its not an issue in the 1st place or like from manufacturing itself, Baleno and Altroz cannot be compared, Baleno is an absolute tin can, no safety, no ride and handling that can match Altroz, no steering feed back and comparing Altroz Diesel and Baleno Petrol is even more irrational bcz both engines itself are different, I'll suggest if you want your car to be very silent and you are ok with an unsafe car then go with Baleno but if you can withstand heavy bassy sound diesel engine which has a proper punch in every gear then go for Altroz Diesel and don't need to worry about dpf issue
Also 1 more thing if you're going to buy Altroz Diesel and drive it very smoothly like lower speeds in higher gear then definitely you'll get dpf issues, it needs to be driven properly and in Turbo range then you'll never have to worry for dpf clogging up

Sir muze yahi problem hai dpf ka?
Completely DPF Failure Hai Mostly in Hyundai..

Sab kuch kr liye but ye problam kuch time bad fir aa jati h.
Aapko aaya tak Aaya Hai DPF ka Issue? Aur maily aap el hi station se diesel fill karvate ho aur aapki per day running kitni hai aur City me hi hai kya?

Only 12.8 mileage?? Is it giving poor mileage??
I stay in Mumbai, according to Mumbai traffic its excellent mileage 🤣, its MID amd MID is never fake I calculated I get 14.5-15 tank to tank and otherwise O don't care for mileage much as car does not even reach 3rd gear due to traffic
@@daninwheels1006 so even car shows 12.8 mileage on mid you get 15 tank to tank?? Is mid showing less then actual mileage?
@@Tamilautogarage Yes as MID logic is silly if your car is standing still with engine running mileage will go down drastically and also if that happens multiple times then due to multiple trips a set mileage will show on MID like how its showing 12. something here so basically that's of no use
@@Tamilautogarage If I reset and start driving at moderate speed it will immediately show superb mileage like 25+
You stay in Mumbai. Are you not worried about using BS4 fuel in BS6 engine? Also, do you have any idea when is BS6 fuel expected in Mumbai? Thanks
Sir BS6 fuel is available from past 6 months, infact all fuel pumps give only BS6 fuel now so no need to worry
@@daninwheels1006 Many thanks for the update..
How many minutes we have to drive in 2nd gear in high rpm like u drive bro?
Hardly 2-3 pulls, you don't have to constantly drive in 2nd gear just redline in 2nd gear 2-3 times that's it, by doing that your car will reach optimum heat level
@@daninwheels1006 thank u, for this valuable info. Im planning for diesel too. but have doubt. Now, its clear.🙏

Sir purchase karke 3 din hua hai dpf light and check engine light aa raha hai , and 60 speed ke upar gaadi nai jaa rahi hai xm+ diesel hai
Bhai daro nahi 3rd par 60 ke speed par car bhagav for 15-20 mins DPF Filter ekdum hot hoke pura exhaust free hojayega, uske baad check engine amd dpf light dono band hoga, agar nahi hua toh Tata ke nearest Service Center mai leke jake unko achese ghussa karo, only 3 days old car mai dpf issue ana hi nahi chaiye
What happened later? Are you satisfied with it?
Mere pass altroz xt diesel hm
30000km service k baad b gadi bdne lgi h
Clear b kiya service walo ne BT abhi tak dbne lgi h
I have kia sonet htx diesel. I completed 18000 km Till now, I doesn't faced this dpf issue. I always drive a car in its proper gears. I also parked my car for 10 days .
It's depends on your driving habit.
Even I am not crossed high rpm
Great but not all people drive in proper gears, lot of people have typical Indian mentality to drive slow in higher gears to get good mileage, but they end up getting dpf issues as well
What is add blue which u mentioned in this video?
Add Blue is a liquid which is filled in bigger cars like Harrier and safari its an alternative for DPF Filter, big Tata cars like Harrier and Safari do not have DPF filter they have a 15 Litre Add Blue tank along with traditional fuel tank and this add blue liquids nullifies all the black smoke problem
25k completed nexon diesel bs6 no dpf issue yet , this is the benifit of sport mode 😂
Same here I always drive in city mode in my Diesel Altroz, as it does not have sports mode so it gives full power in city mode and due to that I never ever got dpf issues now I've completed 21k kms
Can we avoid issue of DPF by only using BS6 diesel ?
BS6 diesel and dpf has no connection and literally from past 1 year all over India only BS6 Diesel is sold so this question is invalid sir, you need to be bit hard on your car to make sure your car heats up properly to avoid dpf issues
Okay, Thank you 👍🏻
@@ankitmahadik4081 You're welcome

Hi, This is very helpful video. I have few queries.
Are you still able to avoid the dpf issue using same technique of daily red lining?
As you mentioned, are you planning to do a new video on the dpf?
Yes absolutely when I did this video it was long time ago now my car has touched 11k kms and still I didn't face dpf issues even for a single time and I stay in Mumbai and you know how Mumbai traffic is still I never got dpf issues
The reason is because when traffic frees up a bit I redline not fully but almost redline my car in 1st and 2nd gear and once or twice redline in a day is enough to keep you away from dpf issue even when you drive your diesel BS6 car in bumper to bumper traffic
But I find it difficult to redline my 1.5 litr.
I get scared even at late night on city roads.....plus i dont have such roads nearby....unless i go far away approx 30 kms out side of city...
@@Raakeshcc Then sir you need to get over your fear redlining or atleast coming close to it is the best way to avoid dpf issues
@@daninwheels1006 You are right......but i am only afraid in the city where there are other vehicles even at night and ofcourses there are wrongsiders and jumpers....on far off highways i drive freely....as i did during my mumbai hyderabad trip....

Hmmm I guess you need to take it to SC to fix the warning light as you ran for good 1 hour I am sure the actual issue must've been fixed but only warning light remains
@@daninwheels1006My warning light is 'flashing' not showing "continuesly" as written in service manual .Is there difference . PS not able to take car rpm higher than 2500 in 3rd gear so I think issue is still there so yes gonna take it to SC .
@@RaviKumar-bd9sc Alright then take it to SC ASAP don't keep running it much now they'll manually resolve it and if your car is in warranty make sure you don't pay any money to them

@@shrikantbhidikar1 Better take it to Service Center bro before it makes any damage to engine
10 to 15 thousand for DPF cleaning? Is that really the case? Regardless of any car, I believe there is an option to 'Park and Regenerate', meaning, park the vehicle and follow the steps to clean up the clogged filter. It takes approximately 30 minutes time to complete the process, based on information I gathered through other videos. So, 15k for this task which can be done without visiting service centre ?
Let me tell you not aware about other cars but smaller less expensive cars like Altroz do not have any option or mechanism of 'park and regenerate' you need to thrash drive the car to bring it to optimum heating point to clear dpf or else take it to Service Center to clear it, what I mentioned here is if at all the filter gets damaged not just clogged if it gets damaged then changing it will cost you 15-20k
I have seen people getting dpf issues every 1000 kms people who have got it 7-8 times within just 1 year of ownership, so this video was mainly for them

Leh replying to your comment 6 months later, kaha reheta hai tu bhai Mumbai ya kahi aur, Mumbai mai reheta hoga toh tuje Mumbai traffic kesi hai pata hogi hi + 12.8 is showing on MID and MID logic is silly if you end up in traffic after you've just reset your trip meter it might even show you 8 kmpl when you drive and again end up in traffic then due to multiple times braking and waiting in traffic your MID may not update to accurate mileage, why I know this is bcz I have my office in Andheri and my car usually always shows 12.5-13 kmpl on MID but still I achieve 450 kms on a full tank which when calculated comes up to 15 kmpl which is still good considering the traffic conditions and I always keep AC on never switch it off
The only solution is running the car to the optimal temperature, it can be achieved in 50kms of Highway driving.
Or else driving bit hard for 2-3 times even that is enough
