Grandric Posted July 4, 2021 Share Posted July 4, 2021 I was looking around in Forscan and wanted to check on my DPF soot loading level. Only I cannot find the option in Forscan. I can see e.g. DPF differential pressure, failed regens, number of regens but not the soot loading. Can anyone please point me to it?

Luke4efc Posted July 4, 2021 Share Posted July 4, 2021 Go to live data, then press table at the top. Should be in the same place as MAF, RPM, CAT temps etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tizer Posted July 4, 2021 Share Posted July 4, 2021 There might not be one for your variant of that model, there wasn't on for my 1.6 TDCI either in FORScan or IDS. It is not a real reading anyway it is an implied one. The Differential Pressure live data is more useful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah, ok cool, I was worried something was missing 😄 Any idea what sort of reading I should see for the differential pressure? I've tried googling but the results were either trying to sell me a new sensor or something not helpful... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know the exact figures to expect but a new one at Idle should be near 0, maybe 0.1 or 0.2. If it is close to 1 or more than 1 then the DPF is quite blocked. Steady cruising should give a reading of a lot less than 5, maybe 1 or 2 for one in good condition. It will rise briefly during acceleration. If it reaches its trigger point, usually more than once during a driving cycle or consecutive cycles the it should show a fault code. Someone with more familiarity with that engine have have some more useful data. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grandric Posted July 5, 2021 Author Share Posted July 5, 2021 Thanks for this, I'll have a play when I get chance. Not that I think it's blocked, I was just playing around and getting used to Forscan... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
