#seat #ibiza in for a #dpf fault yesterday... glow plug light & engine management light on! The owner had it in a local garage to be fixed and was told to just keep running it up the motorway and it will rectify itself! And if that didn’t work it needs a dpf costing £1500!!! 150 miles later and the lights were still on🤦‍♂️ we plugged it in to our diagnostics and found an error code for implausible signal from dpf pressure sensor? On further investigation found the sensor was reading 21psi back pressure! A maunual check with a gauge showed just 2psi back pressure meaning a faulty sensor... we changed the sensor and straight away the lights extinguished and the vehicle came out of limp mode☺️ £95 and it was all fixed💪 If the owner had of gone down the route of a new dpf then he would still of had the fault with the sensor and would’ve been £1500 out of pocket! If you’re having dpf problems then bring it to a specialist and get it repaired properly first time - 01513742421 #dpffault #diagnostics #ellesmereport #rightfirsttime #onsitedoneright #savingafortune (at NW Auto Services Ltd, Cheshire) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bqb-QCxnlI5/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=16nu5zdxxpuff

We had this #Suzuki #grandvitara in for a #dpf fault that was causing it to go into #limpmode It had been to several garages with the same fault but no one could get to the bottom of it! We initially took it for a #testdrive that highlighted a code for #turbo wastegate & #soot accumulation? We checked the live data and all seemed ok, a manual check of the dpf back pressure readings confirmed it was free flowing so we then carried out a smoke test of the air intake etc which quickly highlighted a leak from around the #intercooler , stripped down and removed it was found to have a massive split in it! After replacement we reset the ecu and then took on a roadtest where the vehicle carried out its own #regen and stayed out of limp mode👍 #anotherhappycustomer #dpffault #fixed #wesucceedwhereothersfail #noproblems #nwautoservicesltd #ellesmereport #wirral #cheshire #chester (at NW Auto Services Ltd, Cheshire)
