Done this test on a VW Touran 2.0TDI 16V with DPF. Bubbles were present on idle and increasing in revs. After disconnecting the turbo the bubbles dissappeared. I removed the EGR cooler and it was faulty. Cooland was present on the exhaust gas chamber and on the pipe that goes to the EGR. Awesome video! Very helpful! Thanks a lot for this procedure ideea!
@@nanau2002 Hello! What do you mean? Lot of pressure in the expansion tank? No, there was no pressure(like the blown head gasket do) only loss of water due to cracked cooler.
Did you have white smoke from exhaust? I have bubbles in the cooling system when the engine is hot. When it is cold I can't see bubbles. But I have never seen white smoke from exhaust on the first start or after a long drive. I drive golf plus 2.0 TDI 2005 year 16V. Tomorrow i will do this from video clip. Should i do that when the engine is hot or cold?
@@profpetarsazdov try to make it when the engine is warm. During the start-up time, when the engine is idle and cold, the egr is kept closed for the engine to warm up easier. So this will trick you in the test.
glowplugs will only give off white smoke when cold. not warm. pressurize ur system let sit then restart if theres white smoke and coolant out the exhaust repair egr n oil cooler for a head gasket check for combustion vapors in ur resevior. monitoring pids will help also.
Illateralus The lift pump on the Dodge with a Cummins isn't the problem. The BOSCH VP44 high pressure pump/timer is the problem. Unlike the previous pump, the VP44 is lubricated by the diesel fuel instead of the engine oil. When the life goes so too the high pressure pump/timer.
@@kevinhancock4064 The EGR cooler fails on these 6.0s but it is the result not the cause. The cause is actually the oil cooler plugging because antifreeze from the oil cooler goes to the egr after. When it is restricted it over heats and cracks. Change oil cooler and egr, put on a antifreeze filter kit and these engines last a long time. Changing antifreeze every 4to5 years helps as well.

sorry ran out of room.if your coolant system has already failed them i would recommend bullit proofing your 6.0 but i would still keep the coolant system serviced
A few years ago, we went halibut fishing in Canada from Washington. We took my friend's '96 F250 and the hi-voltage that runs the injectors fried. We were stuck about a mile outside of camp with 2 coolers full of halibut. The nearest Ford dealer was in Victoria Canada and they wanted $400 for the wiring harness. Major Crap!
Okay so I have a 2005 Ford excursion with a V10 6.8 l and 8 digit is an s on the VIN number my question is heard a pop white smoke oil and water mix came outengine automatically turned off haven't been able to turn it on since what should be the first thing I do
Great test. Another variation is to drive the truck a few miles, preferably under load. We do this with the Class A rigs. An even stream of bubbles at idle and at temp, then the load test. If the cadence increases you can deduce it's the head gasket. If it's an even stream it's the EGR. Only problem is, you still have the possibility of having the EGR cooler as well.
I used a bottle of Steel Seal to fix my head gasket, drained the coolant, removed the thermostat, flushed the cooling system really good, Then use a radiator cleaner to clean the cooling system , Make sure to flush out all the cleaner 100%, When engine is 100% cold add steel seal with distilled water, turn heater on high & let idle for 30 mins with the radiator cap off........Let it cool for 1 hour the let idle again for 30 mins with the radiator cap on...........next morning let it idle for another 30 mins then removed all water from the system to let the steel seal cure for 24 hours, Replace the thermostat, fill with coolant and your good to go. Mine has been running perfect for 70k miles now as i use the car for uber & lyft, Only cost me about $120 total.
me again,i'm not saying the videos dont help but i'm saying dont fix half of your problum cause if you do,you'll be doing it all over again. i have been a ford diesel tech for 10 years and if your egr cooler has filed it's because your oil cooler has failed.the temps between your engine coolant and oil should not exceed more the 15 degrees of each other.to help keep from this concern happen is to keep your coolant system serviced and flushed.i would recommend useing the bullit proff system if
The two wire connector that plugs into the turbo/VGT actuator is what we unplug. This allows the VGT vanes to return to the fully 'open' position hence releveling backpressure. This helps to identify whether the bubbles are from a head or EGR cooler issue.
Change your coolant cap. If you have an Advance Auto Parts store get one. The factory caps on the 6.0s are terrible because of the spring inside of the cap is weak and therefore you lose pressure in your cooling system which also increases boiling point because of the loss of cooling system pressure. It seems too simple to work but if you think about it this is a five to ten dollar part and this may save you from $5000+ repair bill. this is a good fail safe way to keep the system pressurized and from going bankrupt trying to fix a problem that could have been prevented possibly.
He didn't say it caused failures. He said it could make you lose coolant and make it appear that you have a problem you don't have, and he's right. Don't answer when you don't know how to read.
@@davepearce7545 On my side, the first thing I changed indeed is the coolant Cap. No outcomes. Still Bubbles in the coolant tank. I will test this procedure. Very smart idea.
Just install a pressure gauge using some hose and a t fitting inline with the 3/8 hose on the degas bottle. Then go hammer it down the road and see how much pressure you get and how fast it comes up.
I have bubbles in the coolant system when the engine is hot (maybe it is also when it is cold, but they are too small and I can't see them, or maybe there is not). But, most important is that i never see white smoke from exhaust on first start or after a long drive. Also heating air is working great. But it is losing antifreeze a little bit. So, what can be the problem? I drive a VW 2.0 TDI 16V BKD engine. Please help.
Funny did the test on hot 6.0 liter no bubbles, actually it pull some water up the tube but coolant pressure is 10 to 12 psi driving around. Mash down on the throttle 16-18 psi but no coolant relief.......yet
Yeah, you are set with that cummins. Except for the lift pump, injector pump, tranny, ball joints, body, interior... But damn. At least you got that cummins. Lol
On my 2011 lml, the coolant is being sucked in and triggering off the sensor and when I go to add coolant and remove the cap, the coolant rises back up to normal level. I've had all tests done and they pass, headgasket, coolant pressure. Replaced radiator, thermostats, cap, tank and sensor. I've looked everywhere for leaks or residue and found nothing. The engine does not over heat at all and runs fine. But it's still doing it. What could be causing this.
jose zaragoza it's a Duramax a side note is it could be your head gaskets just slowing leaking and getting Burnt so you don't notice mostly likely is the cause
Hi Vicente - from what you have described ("smell fuel burning eyes"), I suspect you have a failed fuel injector. The excess fuel can cause the white smoke out of the exhaust.
We can really only speak to this specific application in this video, but we are starting to get a lot of experience with the DT and we do produce EGR coolers for it. Perhaps give us a ring and we'll help out however we can: 888-967-6653
i have watched a few of these videos and not once has anybody told the people what causes the egr cooler and head gaskets to fail but i will.coolant flows to your oil cooler first and then to your ecr cooler,if the oil cooler is restricted (low coolant flow),the egr will have a loose of coolant flow there for letting the exhaust gas temp to get high there for causing the egr cooler to leak and if you dont notice the loss of coolant then guess what happens next.thats right blown head gaskets
+Chadd Chevrolet Yes.. No matter what you will get bubbles, your just looking for a change in the way they are coming out. You will also want to have your engine at normal operating temps while doing this test.

I had a really steady stream. When I unplugged the turbo I went to almost no bubbles. Thanks bullet proof diesel!
As long as the engine is up to operating temperature, then the bubble test is performed and you get a steady stream of bubbles, that would most likely indicate a cylinder head/head gasket issue.
@@BulletProofDiesel reason I ask is because I started my truck up it was already warmed up and what not but i just stopped to grab a bite to eat and started it back up after leaving I noticed it wasn't getting hardly any power.
