...every week to do a decent drive with the distance and revs to clear DPF. However, i noticed that the day after my decent drive on Monday, a regen started after a very short journey when i pulled up on drive. It seemed strange that it started one so soon after a decent run out and just...
My regens on VW T6 Kombi are starting about every 300 kilometres but I've often been coming near to a journeys end when they start - i.e. I drive into our road near home and the bleddy thing starts regen. Then I have to keep driving it to finish the regen.
I have the DPF Monitor app and I can...
Background:
Beginning of the week I got to work mid-regen. Rather than interrupt I let it finish while I waited in the car park.
Got in the van this morning to start an 60+ mile journey and the DPF was showing 25% full but within ten minutes it was up to 95% and began a regen.
Over the course...
Started my T6.1, it almost instantly went into a regen. Engine is cold, it's sat at 1000rpm and the VAGDPF doesn't even show it as being at 100% yet... Anyone seen this before?
Anybody know if any of those heads up displays show regen status from the ODB port?
I have the DPF Monitor app but I want a more permanent visual rather thsn having to connect to the phone every time.
For example, this is s nice looking one but no regen status that I can see on it. Presumably...
Noticed something different today with a regen. It started just before coming to destination so I parked & left it running. This time I put it in neutral (DSG) & sat there. I had the DPF ingo app open & saw temperature drop from 650 degrees down to about 190 degrees. The regen stopped at 60%...
So a little conundrum, I have 2018 t6 140 mapped. It appears to cycle dpf regen fairly regularly but my obd11 states it hasn't regen'd for over 350km and the soot levels are well under trigger levels. I think it's in regen as it idles high and oil temp is higher and fans come on also shit mpg...
...let off after a lot of accelerator input low in the Rev range. Not sure if that's normal/related.
Bizzarely the van drives normally during a regen it seems. Only just done a regen and noticed it feels more normal- not tried it under proper load. . Turbo spools earlier and behaves. Just...
...journeys I do. Soot levels reached 22.7g so I just took it for a 40 min run on the motorway and kept it above 2000 revs but it hasn’t done a regen and I’m now on 24.7g.
Did I do something wrong or does it just not need to do one yet? From what I’ve read it will need to burn the soot off...
...‘30535 - Intake Manifold- Runner Position- Sensor/Switch- Circuit: Range/Performance’
It was really clogged up.
Before replacing it, the regens were getting more frequent, every 25-30 miles.
I do a good mix of long/short journeys but Just over a week since manifold replacement & the...
During a diesel particulate filter regen, what happens to the fuel/air mixture? That would make it different to normal running.
Is it less air and more fuel? What sensors control this function?
No fault codes, no warning lights. Trying to understand an odd running condition only occuring with...
I think that's the issue with trying to complete a regen in the car park - temperature is quickly lost when idling, often resulting in the regen being aborted.
Sorry to high jack again guys, trying to figure out why passive regen doesn’t get recorded by the ecu…… should the particle matter sensor exhaust temperature be higher than what the sensor is reading after a trip down the motorway? I’m assuming so? After a few logs it never goes above 26 degrees……
Yes my T6.1 starts regen at 30...stops at 6. I always set trip meter when regen finished, to know roughly when next one is due...around 320km... although coming back from Mallacoota towing boat , was 398km.
Yeah i went through Carista to pair it / adjust the battery info and it saved ok and yeah i understand the higher revs for the regens but it is doing it quite often outside of regen times :-(
Hi
Just needed help on the regen side of things.
Had a new egr replacement and also cleaned dpf, the problem I am getting now is every time it regen it does not get up to the temperature to regen.
It throws up code of bank 1 sensor 2 which I have replaced.
Every time it’s on regen now I have to...
Regen won't kick in until soot level reaches around 30g, or it will kick in as you reach your destination (according to the law of sod) "Long runs" until it gets to that level won't burn anything off, just add to the soot (as you discovered). Once it does start a regen you will notice stop start...
Yep, it's mainly to monitor that the regen distances aren't decreasing since I had the egr mapped out. But it does give an indication of when one is due.
No need to worry, it's just a DPF Regen.
There's a thread on here explaining it all
