Brilliant.George .. just brilliant!! ... We need more fearless mechanics like you doing these hacks ... I've had enough of their nonsensical BS.
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.
Best thing for them George. Had my DPF gutted and ECU remapped in March this year. Best investment I've made since owning the car.
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
Great video. Gutting my VDJ79 DPF tomorrow...
I knew that drill I bought in Lidl would come in handy some day😄 Feels good to see this crap being gutted out.
I had a Peugeot 1.6hdi and the turbo went due to the dpf blocked. My mechanic cut it out and the car drove like new after (2nd handvturbo fitted) Felt like a 2.0hdi. Had the car 5+ years and just sold it for a very nice price (2010 manu) the guy was so impressed after a test drive he just gave me my asking price.
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.
in The Netherlands we have an option to remove the dpf from the car's registration. There will be an extra fee for the environment though.
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 😆❤️
Since I don't have a DPF, I just invested some money on EGR and Throttle body delete (Throttle bodies on Diesel cars are not strictly necessary like they would on a gasoline powered vehicles), that was a good choice of mine. Been running without EGR and TB, the car runs better than with all those things because of it being more efficient. And also, in the long run the lower fuel consumption gets me back the money I spent on extra burnt gas and extra replacement parts
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.
The DPF material is worth money, it’s full of rare metals scrapyards love them.
Yep
Interesting..... I was just talking to my uncle about this 5hours ago.
Im Considering doing this. Since I drive over 69mph everyday. For that healthy engine smoothness once egr dpf delete.
Another great video.
P.s should I use a jack hammer, seems like I haven't made much use of that tool in 3 years.
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
I just got mine cleaned and the car drives better now than when I bought it…..nowadays there is no need to gut.
i cleaned mm dpf and after one weeck already problem
Several decades ago, my mechanic cut two catalytic converters, took out the insides, and rewelded the tank. These small trucks are a long time in the junkyard. I'm not certain I would do this currently with the enforcement and fines.
I love you and work based on this video. I love the noise and quality , it's so clear. I we have no choice of the air quality we breath, just put a mask on or just a hankie. Lol. It's so fun.
I have a corsa D 1.3 diesel just been remapped with a smoke map on it pushing 130bhp but I need my dbf deleted to make my car bit more healthy
Iv just drove my Honda CR-V home 300 miles dpf light on . Wont regenerate so looks like I'm going drill mine out
I just purchased a kuga 2009 titanium 4x4 the car pulls like a train but I have a problem it blows black smoke when I’m over 3500 rpm if I drive it normally without booting it there’s no smoke do you think it’s had the DPF removed no engine light or codes ever and the car feels lot more power than stock 140hp
I have a bloody 2011 Jetta TDI gonna see if I can do this thanks mate!
Good luck!
Did ya do this to your Jetta? Ddi you have to reprogram it after wards?
I have a 2013 Im thinking of drilling the DPF as well.
What a great way to spend 5 hours on a Sunday 😂
Great video 👍 would be interested in a follow up video checking the emissions after the remap to ensure it passes the mot. Keep up the good work 🙂
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
Something I want to do to the DPF on my Ranger is drill about 12mm hole right through the middle of the filter as done in the first stage of this video. I live in Aus where it's illegal to so and makes your car unroadworthy but just trying to let the engine breath more. I recently got a DPF back 3" exhaust and it made absolutely no change to the sound which was alarming
Yep - DPF is like a huge silencer.. needs to be removed to increase any sound
Yes a cars regen puts extra unburnt fuel throught the exhaust system to start combustion of soot in the DPF filter.
Everybody worrying about MOT time, but the big problem is insurance.
Drill it, gut it, remove it, whatever, and you have made a modification which renders your vehicle illegal for use on the public highway. That immediately invalidates your insurance - even if you tell your insurance company.
You can get a replacement DPF from £200 brand new, and that's a decent one, made in the UK and properly engineered.
200? How is that?
The cheapest dpf replacement for my Ford is 1800. Ford wants 3k for a the oem part.
Exactly what I was thinking.
Pressure cleaner does great.
I hear different stories about removing the dpf; due to empty hole it could have less torq after mounting the empty dpf back? Is tha true? In that case would it be better to mount some kind of pipes inside the DPF housing to create some counter pressure..?
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.
Edit: One other thought is that changes to the exhaust system (or anything that may change the amount of air/fuel coming in/out of the engine) ideally require a tune. So on a more modern car u could potentially loose some performance removing the dpf without a remap, (which some people might equate to loosing back pressure but that's not really the case) although I doubt it would be that significant as modern cars have so many sensors to maintain a consistent air/fuel ratio.
I know this type of job since the beginning of the dpf era !!! 🙂
Wise choice anyway
Is it legal in the UK? I have a Doblo 1.3 same as vauxhall combi engine. Can the ECU be remapped to enable pass emission
Nice and easy job George 👍🏻
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
dpf and oil starvation killed my turbo, new oil feed with no restriction and turbo on the way and dpf will be gutted when this is done, can't wait.
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
DPF faul comes up on the dash, Got diagnosed and found a left split innercooler hose.
Have a amazing Christmas 🤶 🎅 🎄
You too mate!
Hi George, will it effect the emissions during the MOT test? Apologies in advance if you’ve already answered this question. Thanks 👍
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
Could you make a video of how to remove the passengers airbag? Thanks!
😀
Lets hope dvla agents not watching youtube as your reg is visible 😁
They will be , don’t you worry about that 🤔
a long wood drill bit would have been better because it will break it all up a lot quicker and make the job faster.
42mm sds core bit … Bosch !
Doing that wht does it achieve sorry , jst I have a 2011 sprinter and I'm always having prob with dpf , being diesel will it blow black smoke under load
Do I need a remap if no codes or errors poop out? Runs works perfect, no smoke...and should not regen because the dif. pressure is low.
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!
What sensor is detecting/measuring the particulate /soot load on the DPF? If you have gutted it would the sensor know it’s missing and throw up a check engine light?
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.
Looks like a DPF from a M47 / M57 BMW. My old e60 DPF looked the same
Yep👍🏻
Thé cat still in place 🤔😉
I've had this done to mine and boy does it bellow out smoke!! 🙈😅
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
NEED HELP. Had my car mapped with dpf file removed. I have purchased a replacement pipe which will eliminate the dpf completely. Do I just bung the feed pipes going to the old dpf.
Hello George, you basically destroy the filter! in this case you might as well put a tube in there?! here in France it is punishable by refusal at the Technical Inspection or even heavy fines (for endangering public health). For cleaning, all you need is a good scale destroyer and good rinsing with hot water (several times, until the rinsing water is clean). then have the breath (to eliminate as much water as possible). and went back up.
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.
How to make your car (Euro 0) :p. Im tempted George i really am but i think the f chasis have a slightly diffrent DPF ill have to investigate. Thanks for the vid dude.
Cheers Chris!
Hi George
I'm thinking of gutting my DPF then welding a piece of exhaust pipe each end of the DPF inside close it up and replace on the car thinking it will act like a downpipe delete better run of the exhaust gasses through the pipes
Or am I being stupid here
Cheers George 👍
You could do but don’t think it’ll make a massive difference
Would doing this throw codes on my 2007 X5 E70 3.0d?
terrific ! Thanks George
You’re welcome!
Just a point worth mentioning , you are all free to do what you want with your cars however as it is illegal to drive a car with a removed or altered DPF which makes the car technically un roadworthey and should you check your small print in your insurance also makes your car un-insured so if you have a major accident , your fault or not and the car is checked which is the first thing Police and insurance companies look for these days especially undeclared tune maps along with EGR and DPF deletes will invalidate any insurance or claim as any car with an altered or removed DPF or EGR should technically fail an MOT if detected but is legally clasified un roadworthey and not insured and is illegal to drive on a public highway.
Roll the dice and take your chance but now you have the facts and as George has fully documented the removal of his DPF which is not illegal but when driving it on the road is commiting an offence should look forward to the blue lights in his rear view mirror very soon .
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
Hey George which car did this DPF come off of? Looking to buy a diesel car with an easy-to-gut DPF.
I would be doing it out doors . pressure wash or sit the exhaust in a bucket of detergent get as much soot out as possible. Keep the thing wet with a garden hose as reqd to stop as much nasty stuff getting airborne.
And rather than drilling i would maybey use the sds+ drill in breaker mode ie hammer chisel rather than drill turn .
It all minimises what your breathing in . Still wear a quality mask
You are my hero Ill do mine
Good luck
If your car regenerates when it detects an increase in differential pressure across the DPF, if that never happens due to being filleted surely the ECU will never call for a regeneration, so why would it throw up error codes?
It will throw a fault for not seeing a difference in pressure from inlet to outlet.
Lack of pressure lol
I'm wondering if you can fool the sensors and make the computer think the dpf garbage is still in the car. Cut the wires and just twist them together or something. Those sensors must be for heat or pressure or something.
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.
Clean job 👍🏼
Thanks 👍
“Diesel particular filter” 😂😂😂😂 particle my bro
I said particulate👍🏻
My peugeot expert 2017 dpf filter is 2 parts , i remap the system ,do i need to remove both parts in dpf or just one part, i am thinking may be one part necessary in order warm up the engine, any help apprecieted
Are you talking about the EGR valve too?
I’ve just paid £400 to have this done and egr valve removed and blanked off.. plus remap,, now I can’t get a mot,,, as emissions are to high….
Must have a problem
Bien 👍 respect très bon travail
Hi can someone help me i have a seat ibiza fr 1.6 disel 2012 some times is going to limp mod and doesn’t go over 20 per hour but when shes not in limp mod she doesn’t go over 160 km per hour so i went to a Mechanic and he told me to delete dpf and he will make the car 150hp but natural shes 105hp should i delete dpf or not ?
Which car does this DPF belong to?
How much is a new one after the MOT examiner discovers that it is damaged and put a fail against it for the gutted filter, once on paper they all look for it.
Mot testers don't take things apart they just look at things as they are... so they will never know unless you cut it and weld it back together
Hi mate i got question if the dpf u bashed that out ? Is chance too come back the think or never or will be always like clean ?
It can never get blocked again
gonna do this to my mk5 tdi wish me luck lads
Great content, George👍! quick question in regards dpf cleaning,my mechanic said that he will cut the dpf and clean. after weld it back. Is that normal to do?
If he means gutting it then yes
Never understood why you guys (who do dpf off) dont fill it up with water first to avoid any particle inhalation and unnecesarry dust...
Because it will make all the dust soggy and it’s worth good money
@@GeorgeAusters so you actually sell the dust? :))
🙌🏼
🙌🏼
will it fail a mot once this procedure is done
As long as your engine is healthy you should be fine
How about the fuel line & sensor line
Is that from 320d? So dpf regen didn't really help in the end?
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
Helloo...how much did you get for the soot? If you sold it🤔
I’m in a situation where the garage removed my DPF its passed the mot. But now im thinking about selling it… should I mention it do you think?
You should make the buyer aware yes👍🏻
can you do a tutorial for the n47 engine?
This is n47
Is there any sensors that need removing? As mine has been gutted out and remapped but still tries to do a regen ?
Hi, How is your car running performing after this...
Hi.got sprinter 15 plate dpf cut out and welded but its no power and engine light on diagnostic cod shows all dpf sensors,back pressure sensor,changed them but still same cod no power.dose it need remap or delte dpf from system?any advice pls
Yes you need to have it remapped.
Hi, ist es normal das der dpf auf einer seite nach unten schräg ist und hinten gerade?
How can we disable in the ECU?
Because I just bought a downpipe to replace my DPF on my E87 118D but I have to disable the regeneration etc and I don’t want to pay a lot for someone to click a button ..
You aren't paying them to click a button, you're paying them for their knowledge on how to do it
Would it pass an MOT on emissions?
Yes
How about filling with ssteel wire wool,
Why would you want to do that?
Does it affect your Mot results in Uk when they check for emissions as I wanna do it to mine but worried it might not pass… thanks
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
Great video
Bet your neighbours love you lol
George 👍, whatif you just drill a circle the same diameter as the exhaust pipe instead of gutting everithing inside?
I know that in some cases, the empty DPF muffler increses echo and the whistle from turbo (some guys like the sound, but i personnaly don't).
Maybe if you let "something" inside it will absorb some reverberation and it will be more quiet, but i don't know the cons.
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
What about MOT?
Should pass fine if engine is healthy
When gutting your dpf ...how do you do it so you don't get the smoke I want to try and avoid it if possible
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
Hi George maybe you can help, I got code that my dpf is blocked, I changed the dpf for a new one and can’t delete the codes, also the car is no in limp mode, I need to change the cat?
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.
Nice job 👌
Thanks Malc
can dpf removal without remapping cause engine light on mercedes sprinter, after 80kms per/h engine light flash?
Yes it’s possible
@@GeorgeAusters Thanks a lot for the reply!
Hi Geroge. Just a question...Is it possible to delete DPF-EGR, remap the ECU and keep the DPF soot filter on place as original? Thanks!
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
Will the car black smoke even when it’s been remapped?
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
Hi George thanks for another great vid, I had my DPF removed and a map on a 07 VW golf, it seemed to puff out a bit more smoke, would this be the case on my 10 320d msport, if I gut out and remap? Thanks
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?
Don't forget all the stuff you remove from the dpf is valuable! Probably a few hundred quid in platinum or palladium. Really it should be enough to pay for the delete itself. Sell it.
Yep👍🏻
Lol! I remember the good old days of diesel engines before DPF was an obligation on the modern car. All had exhausts pointing to the floor (at least in the UK) as they would spew pm10s and cause health issues in built up areas. The DPF is a royal pain in the arse but unfortunately it is now illegal to remove or modify them to drive on a public road. It is also an automatic MOT failure. Also, due to obligation to declare upon point of sale, resale value of a gutted vehicle will plummet. It is cheap and easy to get them serviced these days with even Halfords doing it for £80. If you don't intend to drive much just get a petrol 👍
I’d much rather have a diesel without a DPF or EGR - No much issues then and your engine will be a lot healthier👍🏻
@@GeorgeAusters your lungs won’t be though. It is illegal for a reason.
@@GeorgeAusters no point trying with him he’s unreasonable 😂

As far as I know there is two parts inside that box. Dpf filter + Catalitic converter. Some people prefer to leave Catalitic converter in place and just remove dpf part.
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)
Hi Mate How long did you take to finish it?
About 30 mins
What a waste of time..
Sell the dpf whole as there worth wedge.
Then use the cash to buy one of the new blanks. It looks like a dpf as it should. But there us a pipe inside so acts like a link pipe and looks like a genuine dpf.
Simple
Will BimmerCode delete the dpf mapping?
No
Do you remove the sensor too ?
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.
Need to go on Dragons Den mate.
What about emissions test. Will it go up without the filter?
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 🙂
