Crell Auto received an inquiry about a 2014 Peugeot 3008 Allure with a 1.6 HDi engine. Upon conducting a visual inspection, we identified that the air filter needed to be replaced. Our diagnostic assessment revealed the following fault codes from the ECU: P1445, indicating that the additive injected into the FAP has surpassed the maximum limit, necessitating a change of the FAP; P2454, which shows that the differential pressure measurement of the particle filter has a voltage that is too low; and P2463, which indicates that the particle filter is overloaded. We implemented a series of procedures, including topping up the PAT-DEF fluid, performing on-vehicle chemical cleaning, and executing multiple computing processes to restore the particulate filter, which has accumulated 154,000 miles.

Crell Auto received a call regarding a Peugeot 308 2.0 diesel GT Line. Upon our visual inspection, no visual issues were found. The diagnostics scan revealed the following fault codes: P20F6 DeNOx System Circuit. Leak Detection, P2204 NOx Sensor. Faulty Measurement Of The NOₓ Content, P2463 Particle Filter. Detected Overloaded, P246C Particle Filter. Detected Clogged, P24A4 Particle Filter. Detected Blocked, P16EA Depollution of the deNOx System. Excess Emission Of Ammonia, P15B3 Additive Adding. Calculated Additive Level Below The Minimum Threshold. Multiple processes were completed, including PAT-DEF fluid top-up, AdBlue injector replacement and an on-vehicle DPF chemical clean. All the above fault codes were addressed.

Crell Auto responded to a call regarding a power loss issue in a Nissan Juke 1.5 dci. Our first visual inspection uncovered one problem. Following this, we conducted a second round of diagnostics, which revealed fault codes in the engine control module: P2263 related to the boost pressure circuit, P0380 concerning the preheating unit diagnostic connection, and P012A for the boost pressure sensor. After identifying and replacing the faulty parts, we cleared all engine faults, effectively restoring the vehicle's power.

A mobile diagnostic assessment of the diesel particulate filter (DPF) was conducted on a 2016 Land Rover Evoque 2.0 HSE TD4 equipped with the Ingenium engine. The findings from Crell Auto's mobile DPF diagnostics indicated fault codes: P2463-00, which signifies diesel particulate filter restriction due to soot accumulation in bank 1; P2BAE-00, indicating NOx exceedance within the NOx control monitoring system; P2BAE-02, also related to NOx exceedance; and P246B, which denotes that the vehicle conditions were not suitable for DPF regeneration. Additionally, we identified minor concerns regarding oil dilution, the condition of the air filter, engine servicing, and driving habits. We successfully performed the DPF cleaning procedure, which resolved all identified error codes. A comprehensive fuel system cleaner was added to the fuel tank, and the customer was advised on necessary measures to prevent future DPF-related issues.

Crell Auto received a call regarding a DPF issue in a 2016 Peugeot 308 Allure 1.6 HDi. After conducting a comprehensive diagnostic and fault-finding service, we uncovered the following error codes: P2463, which indicates an overload of the particle filter; P246C, which points to a clogged particle filter; and P246C again, indicating a blocked particle filter, all recorded in a permanent state. Upon closer inspection, we determined that the diesel particulate filter was damaged. It is imperative that you do not permit any garage or mechanic to carry out a forced regeneration on your vehicle. Without proper diagnostics of the pressure within the DPF, you may risk incurring substantial costs for replacement due to potential damage. You can be confident that Crell Auto will accurately diagnose and repair any issues related to your DPF filter. Please take a moment to visit our mobile DPF cleaning page.

A mobile service was conducted on a 2014 Honda CR-V diesel, which revealed the following error codes following Crell Auto's diagnostics of the diesel particulate filter: P109A indicating oil dilution and P24A4 signifying excessive PM accumulation. During the inspection, a split pipe was identified as a contributing factor to the DPF issues, alongside the oil dilution that necessitated an oil change for resolution. The particulate filter was cleaned on-site using a premium chemical solution that effectively restored its functionality. The customer chose to address the split pipe independently, while Crell Auto provided a temporary repair. The service requirements were ultimately fulfilled by the customer.

A Citroen C4 1.6 E-hdi VTR Plus was reported with three fault codes related to the diesel particulate filter: P2463 for overload, P246C for clogging, and P24A4 for blockage. Crell Auto diagnosed the DPF issue, fixed the fault, and used the correct cleaning chemicals. We made sure to handle the pressure carefully, as forcing a regeneration can lead to DPF damage if the pressure is excessive, allowing us to successfully restore the filter's performance.

If you drive a diesel vehicle, you're probably familiar with the DPF (Diesel Particulate Filter). This important part traps harmful particles and reduces pollution. Over time, it can get clogged with soot and carbon, affecting performance. Fortunately, Mobile DPF Cleaning provides an easy fix. 

A Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) is a device that captures and removes pollution from the exhaust emissions of diesel engines. When it comes to diesel particulate filters, or DPFs, you might find yourself in one of two scenarios: either you’ve never heard of them and have no idea if your car even has one, or you’re all too familiar with how expensive they can be when things go wrong. Think of a DPF as an angel sent to watch over your engine, silently working behind the scenes to keep the air cleaner and your ride smoother. But like any good guardian, it needs a little care to stay in top shape.

A worried customer reached out to Crell Auto after experiencing a breakdown on their way to a planned holiday. We promptly responded to their call to assess the situation with their Mitsubishi Outlander GX3 2.32 DI. Upon opening the bonnet, we discovered a split intercooler pipe. We applied a temporary fix to the split and introduced two doses of chemical into the diesel particulate filter to clear the blockage. The error codes we found were P1498 for DPF overloading and P2454 indicating a low differential pressure sensor for the DPF/GPF. We ordered a replacement intercooler pipe, which was installed the following week. Thanks to Crell Auto, a customer's holiday was saved!
