- Welcome back to another video! here in this video, we carry out a DPF filter replacement. we go through how to replace the filter and how to tell the vehicle it had a new filter! I hope you enjoy the video.
Chris Allan said to recommend you’re channel so it must be good Cheers no surrender
Thank you I appreciate you taking the time to check out my channel.
yeah, get with the tool for removing the filter, saves bashing the EAS unit trying to remove it. Those 4 white stickers you didnt fit are for holding the rope seal to stop it moving like it did for you... which can ruin the PM sensor when that seal fails
Just did our in our Euro6 CF . Thanks for the excellent videos .
How did you find it?
@@freightlanetv easy peasy
Really helpful video!
Thank you mate
Great video very interesting
Thank you mate!
they designed that after treatment very well easiest dpf ive ever seen to get out
I 100% agree I nice good job to do until they fill and block the dpf too far lol 😂
Great video 📹 👍
Thanks mate much appreciated

Love to know how much that DPF filter cost.
Afternoon mate! £1000 for a new one like that
@@freightlanetv That's friggin crazy, emissions is such a scam. Clean job dude 🤙
It is mate for sure! Crazy money! And thank you! 🙌
They do recommend that you remove that piece of paper someone so thoughtfully stuck on the face of the DPF ...I don't know if you are aware ,but occassionaly the filter gets forced out of it's housing ,if you get that check items like the VTG and BPV ,,it is also recommended to open up the oil filter and check for soot if ok replace filter if not change the oil ..I hear Howdens are moving , i think it is to close brothers
I’ll definitely take that into account next time I do one! Nice one mate I’ll definitely take a look at that next time for sure thank you! Ohh not heard that one??
@@freightlanetv Heard it tonight ..
Looks a lot easier than the merc set up with two dpf’s fitted,and every bolt wants to snap or round off
Yeah we’ve done a few of them Merc ones a right pain! These are a breeze compared
So had this truck failed a force regen and is that why the dpf was replaced?
Are there any specialist HGV DPF cleaning companies out there? If so have you run a cleaned vs replacement dpf and did it clog any faster?
good question mate, the DPF was replaced as we do these every year or so as a serviceable item, the old one gets cleaned and put in the system kinda thing, so when someone is having one cleaned they then have our cleaned one if that makes sense. yeah, we use a company in Milton Keynes to do ours can find out the name if needed. whenever we had them cleaned we've not had any come back or new ones etc, we've had a fair few issues with the dosing modules in the cat blocking etc causing excessive dosing which then blocks up DPFs with AdBlue too.
Thoroughly enjoying trawling through these videos which are a great help. I shall be following your advice to pull the cover off and have a look at the DPF since I have an intermittent exhaust system warning ( lasts until the engine is switched off and then doesn't reappear for several days). This is accompanied by noticeable exhaust smoke ONLY when accelerating, for about 10 minutes IN TOTAL, and then the exhaust is clear again. My question is: do you have the part no for the outermost gasket which will be disturbed just having a look inside please? My dealer is wanting to sell me a kit and not just one gasket.
Yeah for the sake off 10 minutes it’s worth it just to check it’s all alright. Yeah they do come a in a kit mate tbf
Did you find out was wrong with it? Mine did exactly what u described, long regen with massive clouds of white smoke only
when going uphill or engine is revved up. Second time it happens this month, dealer says it s normal with 600kbkm on it, but the dpf was changed just 1 year ago
@@pchris5391 yes knackered DOC. Many, many, pennies. NOX before & differential temperature sensors had to be replaced during dealer's very thorough Davie diagnosis. The fault finding tree is an impressive list of checks: a very detailed procedure including monitoring various parameters during a road test. These two fast moving parts were credited on the final invoice.
Is it the same for a 106 xf ?
I wouldn’t assume there pretty much the same! I will find out for you tomorrow!
@@freightlanetv great thanks 👍🏻
👍👏👏
Thank you!
A removable dpf that’s the way forward. What’s the cost of that dpf service kit.
When your force regenerate the old dpf’s do they smoke like fuck like the cars do
I do think there quiete pricey tbf! But get done frequently! Erm the ones I’ve done no just get up to temps of 500 degrees plus
£1000 for a dpf
No radio, tunes allowed in your workshop 😄 , that be a looong day. ?
Haha yeah but it’s hit and miss when it gets out on
I’ve got an LF55 2016 Euro 6, is it a similar process?
Hi no unfortunately there different, the dpf is in the middle,there’s 2 clamps either side of it, I’ll try do a video on one
@@freightlanetv that would be great 👍
Hi , Daf vs Scania... After 2019... Overall Durability score from 0 to 100. Please 😁
That’s a hard one to answer as I’ve never driven a Scania to tell, but what I can tell you is the DAF is a good truck, comfy, nice to drive too!
@@freightlanetv I asked because I'm planning to buy just one for myself, I'm tired to drive company trucks
That looked to easy, try doing a Scania one ya need a puller and everything plus breathing mask takes bloody ages whole exhaust out the lot add blue everywhere
Oh wow that sounds like a pain! I’d like to see what it’s like on other manufacturers certain jobs differences
Would do it mate but my gaf has a no policy phone on shop floor plus I learnt not to carry my phone on the floor dropped it to many times on 5th wheels dropped out pocket while climbing in cabs ya get the point so it stays in me scoff bag
Yeah luckily mines on a stand out the way but I’ve dropped air guns on my
Old ones all kinds 😂
