Thank you 🙏🏼 - Auta a dopravní prostředky
Good to see people being honest and giving the right help/advice well done sir 👍🏻👏 I work on a fleet of NV400 and navaras, ad blue system is shocking, had brand new vehicles with the light come on at 600 miles 💀😂
Crazy ain’t it, I tell everyone to avoid any euro6 Adblue if they possibly can, or have it “switched off”
Thanks for watching
Hats off to your honesty 👍🏽
Main dealers charge £120/£180 +vat per hour just to do this lol.
Thanks mate 👍🏼
Love these short step by step information videos, keep em coming Dan if you have time.
Thanks mate appreciate the feedback 👍🏼👍🏼
Very good explanation. I ve in garage a megane with same code a will follo your proceder as first rigeneration then will change oil motor (car has already run 12 thousand km) and in last will cancel service light so to cancel the errore oil diluition with diagnostic computer.
Thanks.
Yeah you many also need to reset oil dilution counter 👍🏼
Thanks Dan you advice was spot on mate thanks to you my van is running sweet now. Would never had a clue otherwise had i not seen this video keep up the good work m8
Thanks mate appreciate it 👍🏼👍🏼
Happy I can help people out
Hi Dan , i own a trafic 1600D
I did a flush on my dpf and kept getting this code , it did keep coming back , garage said they had hlno idea why and i would need to have "advanced" diagnosis .
You have saved me so much money , i reset the service , reset the code and bingo !!!!!!
SUPERB!!!
Yeah this issue even trips the “so called” experts up lol.
Appreciate the comment, didn’t think this video would do so well.
You will probably enjoy my other videos 👍🏼
Good info as usual Dan, keep up the good work.
Thanks mate 👍🏼
Brilliant. My Vivaro 2.0 has this issue. Have been doing lots of local journeys. I will change the oil and get the garage to do a manual regen and reset service and dtc codes. Thanks, liked and subscribed.
Thanks mate appreciate it 👍🏼
Keep an eye on my weekly vlogs have loads of stuff like that in them
God bless you for sharing your knowledge with us

Thanks mate assume it helped you out 👍🏼
Very helpful saves lot of time and money
Thanks mate appreciate it 👍🏼
This also worked on my Xtrail 1.7d. 👍
Yes this should work on all Renault and Nissan range of this era.
Thanks 👍🏼
Gona try this buddy thanks.
Long as you change the oil and follow the procedure it does work 👍🏼
Thanks
Best video ever thanks
Thanks for watching appreciate it 👍🏼
Have a look at my other videos
You are the man. We have this problem and what you are say made sense and worked many thanks hope you have lots of luck and business ❤
Thanks mate appreciate it ….. happy to help 👍🏼
My traffic has had dpf sign coming up for about 2 years, code reads p253f oil degraded, tried regens, bought a code reader to wipe code, sometimes it stayed off for miles sometimes for months, tried dpf cleaners, etc last year I gave it an oil change and the code stopped, few weeks ago code came back so I've just oil changed it again, today, but dint know about resetting service until watching your video. So I just gone and done that too, even though service light wasn't on yet, said it still had 2000miles to go but my oil stinks. Hopefully it's cured now lol
Yes unfortunately these dilute the oil really quickly, especially when been used for urban use.
Bar making the DPF disappear and getting it mapped out, there ain’t much that can be done
Useful video will do well
Thanks 👍🏼
Brilliant advice mate, been fucking about with this code for ages but that's it seems to be clear
Yeah I gathered this code would have lots of people stumped.
Thanks for watching 👍🏼
@@CarAddictGarageNE, no worries pal 👍
@@CarAddictGarageNE Subscribed 👍
@@CarAddictGarageNE, I had P0136 and P0380 which kept appearing as well and none have come back👍update they have now but the engine oil one is at bay👍
Yes this a very aggravating issue, all more to make people go back to dealers
Good work lad, like that video
Thanks pal 👍🏼
❤
Thanks
🎉💓
Thanks
Hi friend, first of all thank you for your work. My vehicle is a 2019 model Dacia Sandero Stepway diesel. 1.5bluedci adblu. We cannot resolve the P253F fault. Engine oil and filter were changed, the error was cleared, the counter was reset, but the malfunction light is active 😔 We speak different languages, I understand you a little bit 😀. What could be another problem? I would be very happy if you could help me.
Check you are resetting the service and the oil change counter
Also check within special functions to reset oil dilution
Thanks for watching 👍🏼
Great video. It sounds like what I'm experiencing on my 1.7d 2019 xtrail. Purchased the car 3 months ago, and it apparently had a full service. The oil service warning came on last week, yesterday the DPF full warning came on. Drove the car 100 miles yesterday assuming it would regen the DPF (dual carriageway journey at 70mph), however it hasn't and the engine management amber light came one. Am I correct to assume the DPF has cleaned off during the duel carriageway run? If I do an oil change, would this allow me to clear the faults? The car is running fine with no loss of power.
Yes the 1.6/1.7 are very similar units …. Think you could be having the same issues.
No driving at 70mph won’t usually clear them sometimes….. regen consists of keeping the revs at around 2500/3000rpm usually in a manual 4th gear around 60/65mph, keep the revs steady no speeding up or slowing down (so choose quiet times) for 7+ miles continuously (use cruise control it helps)
Made sure car up to temperature and plenty fuel in.
The DPF may not regen BECAUSE the metal tube, running from the upstream turbo sensor is blocked... clean it out then regen otherwise you could damage the DPF!
@tomsurrey2252
Yes I have come across that a few times (since posting the video) while ago now
Hi, awesome video. I’ve done all of this. However still having the light coming on and the same error code as above. Alongside the fault code I’m having “implausible signal” it’s a Vauxhall Vivaro 1.6 ctdi 2018. It’s had a successful manual regen to. Any help would be gracious.
You have to be sure of making sure the service light resets correctly, as it’s very unclear when it’s shown as not requiring service (as in service required not showing active)
Also need to reset oil dilution via special functions
Thanks
You mentioned nor being able to do this with a cheep odb2 code reader. Could I use the cheap one from euro parts to at least diagnosis the fault and clear it the first time for the regen?
Yes any cheap reader should be able to clear the codes.
But won’t have the special functions to reset DPF and so on.
Thanks
I keep getting the anti pollution code, spanner light and engine management
Yes all that usually comes on with these when a fault is present on the ECU
Hi mate.
We tried to do a re-gen on my 2014 renault trafic this evening, it's said it was to blocked to do so, do you think the foam cleaner would sort it out?
Sometimes it works yeah, but unfortunately these areas a right nightmare to access the pre DPF pressure pipe to get the cleaner into the DPF.
Hi Dan,
I’m only getting an oil deterioration error. Had a full service in the summer. Took it to the garage last week, cleared the error code for me but it came back on the next day. He said if it comes back on he’ll try clearing it through the computer and dashboard I think? 🤔 I’ve checked the oil, looks and smells fine. Could you advise on the next steps? Cheers
Tbh I have known these dilute the oil within a matter of months.
If you have already tried, I would advise another oil change, reset the service (even though it’s displayed as ok) just do it again, then wipe the codes, should be fine after that
@@CarAddictGarageNE thanks mate. Had the oil and filter changed today and the mechanic said that the oil was very watery but didn’t know why. Did mention that it could be to do with the fuel injector 😬
@jakemccall6332 failed re gens that why, need to make sure you regularly regen the DPF and failed regens dumps diesel into the oil, hence you end off with oil dilution = bust engine
Hi Dan, My Hyundai i40 that my wife drives on short trips, always the oil is diluted, would it help if I did a manual regenerate once a week, how often does the do a regenerate automatically?
Thanks.
No you don’t want to be doing manual regens that’s often as you will totally dilute the oil.
Tbh if all the car does is short trips don’t definitely DO NOT want a diesel with a DPF.
Doing short journeys it will probably never regen correctly, thus blocking the DPF and having loads of failed regens causing oil dilution / permanent engine damage
Did all still fault in the ecu but light not on , the fault is not cleared , as in [ green ] did it in the sequence you stated but no joy
Have you changed the oil as well ?
@@CarAddictGarageNE YES , but as you did say there is no way on measurement
Sometimes you need to try it a few times to get it to reset
I had the engine management light on withe error code P0253F, but it disappeared after i changed Engine oil and Oil filter.
Still important to reset the oil dilution values
Hi mate, I need some help here. I'm a mechanic and I have in my workshop a renault trafic, with that error.
The van arrived with a clogged dpf, I remove it and cleaned it, I changed the oil and filter, did the service reset (manually in the dashboard) but that error, oil diluition reappears after I erase it. Dumb as I am I changed the oil level sensor, because in the dashboard the oil level appears in the middle (3 dots out of 5) but the oil really is at the max. Changed the oil level sensor and still the same problem. And the error P253F won't disappear. I even reset the dpf values after cleaning it. But the error won't come off
This might seam really daft, but are you definitely sure the service light is fully re setting?
As sometimes they look like they have, but they haven’t.
Thanks
@@CarAddictGarageNE how to reset it then? if i reset mine i get fault straight back on - it doesnt reset days but mileage.
Depends what your resetting it on Renault and Nissan systems are the same but work different depending on model/ year as well
Will this work for a vauxhall zafira 1.6 dtci? Many thanks
No not the Zafira, only the vivaro as it’s based on the Renault Traffic
I got confused a bit, why should I drive in fourth gear?
That’s how you regen the DPF
2500/3000rpm constantly for 5+miles
Hi, I have a Renault Clio 3 dci 2011, yesterday there was p253f29, nothing helps, you said "need reprogram DPF". How to do it? Thank you!
It’s under special functions, you reset to oil saturation levels.
But usually follow that order should work.
@@CarAddictGarageNE I think I'll go to the electrician tomorrow. I only have ELM and PyClip on phone. Thank you!
Thanks for watching 👍🏼
@@CarAddictGarageNE as you said, the problem was solved by "replacing the DPF" through diagnostics. The forced regeneration was also done.
Yes you have to do that, but usually simply re setting service light cures it after oil change
Hi
Same error I got yesterday + I have check engine + yellow spanner lights on dashboard.
I did have service information too due 1000miles now it's 300 miles.
So now I should :
-change again the oil +filter ( I have changed oil 1 month ago)
-Go on motorway drive on 4th gear to regen. Dpf for 7-10 miles
-Then reset service information
-Then erase ecu fault code
It's that correct?
Cheers
Yes it should work, but some can be more difficult than others.
Sometimes you need advance equipment that will manually reset the oil dilution.
@@CarAddictGarageNE thanks for replying.
Do you know which diagnostic tool (to buy on Amazon mabye ) can erase this ecu fault code about oil dilution, and also will be able to force DPF regeneration?
Thanks
@conradcullen8029
Use Autel MK808BT but that’s rather expensive for personal use I would say.
TopDon do some cracking kit for reasonable prices but to do special functions you will be paying £200+
