Dpf light on after dpf del by shark!

[allbutt55]

How can i get the dpf light off??
Can it be done via vag com?
Or shark only

 

[towcester vag]

vagcom will do it

 

[Alzak]

Shark only ...

 

[@udi A3]

is there a how to guide to do this with vcds?

if shark deleted it shark should be able to fix it

 

[Alzak]

You can't switch dpf light off using vag com ...

 

[@udi A3]

You can't switch dpf light off using vag com ...

towcester vag said you can

im so confused haha.

DPF light signifies that the car is attempting a regen.

im so confused haha.

Once the soot level drops the light will go out. The ecu is probably confused as there is no DPF to begin with.

VCDS will force a regen but won't instantly remove the light.

 

[andycupra]

you can remove DFP light if its on - on an unmodified car. ie force a regen.

but if its been removed, you cannot remove using vagcom. well as i understand it.

surely your first port of call is get in touch with shark.

towcester vag said you can

im so confused haha.

And I say you can't ... if this will be so easy everyone will do it.

For some reason DPF function to check soot level or values needed for light to switch on are not moved up.

Other idea is DPF sensor is faulty.

 

[James_R]

A faulty sensor giving out incorrect readings will cause the dpf light to come on and normally log a fault if it becomes out of its tolerence.

Best thing to do is speak to shark, i'm sure they'll be more than happy to help.

 

[towcester vag]

if you speak to ben @ shark he should be able to talk you through resetting
ive done it by adjusting the parameters to save my customer doing a 300ml round trip

I hooked up vag com and it said the dpf was 56% full and it had been 14670km since last reg, i drove it down the road with vag com hooked up (as if to do a regen) and it switched straight to 0% and the light went out?? Should i be worried?

 

[kilner]

so this is 5arks so called dpf delete the proper way but still the light returns so the car still thinks it has a dpf NICEEE

I had a friend that removed his dpf and did nothing to the mapping and the light never showed now explain that ?


unless the pressure sensor is still receiving a high pressure triggering the blocked dpf fault to come on wich makes me wonder is that de dpf box restrictive or not done in a very good way and still creating to much pressure and triggering the car to think the dpf is blocking its a clear sigh that there is some restriction going on
