Bag Of Parts Changed But No Mechanic Could Solve This Fault 

I think you're a rare breed now, Jimmy. An actual mechanic, vs a 'parts fitter' which is all main dealers seem to have these days 😕

my vivaro going well since you sorted the issues on monday cheers again Jimmy

Free knowledge, the internet is truly amazing! Thanks Jimmy for everything! All the best!

Good to see the van whisperer still working his magic, mines still going great since your good work, cheers Jimmy.

If you know how a system works you know how to test it and therefore can fix it. A lack of understanding and laziness breeds parts changers and scan and go merchants. If a vehicle is booked into my garage for a diagnostic test. That’s exactly what it gets. TESTING. Top work as always fella 👍

I just think this highlights how bad things are with garages, its like the wild west taking your vehicle into a garage these days even into a main dealer. You've just demonstrated how difficult it is to find someone that actually knows what they're doing. A1 to you fair play!

I'm sure that, If Jimmy opened a chain of O'Rileys garages in the UK and his employees were taught and watched over by Jimmy It would be a massive success 😁and maybe Jimmy could then keep his hands clean for ever more😂Massive respect for your knowledge & even more for posting these videos on how you do it👍

Parts cannon wars fired by fools. Well done Jimmy for proving that knowledge is indeed power.

Top class work Jimmy. Whilst Dealercons want another 2 hours 💴to investigate and diagnose for three hours. Jummy does his magic of diagnose and solve the problem with good solutions in less time… class act… respect to you and your pro work

Main dealers don't know how to fix these cars, most of the time they will bring in a specialist like yourself to fix it for them, another brill job as always Jimmy.

Top Marks again Jimmy for your patience and explanations. Lads in our local Ford garage get paid rubbish wages, and get treated badly so my nephew left when he could and now hes happy working at a Land Rover dealers. Most youngsters are interested but the management are just blond haired empty suits , yes, this one was a woman 😏😊👍

Some people that work in some garages don't have understanding of how it really works....Jimmy your knowledge and how you explain it is amazing!

Well done Jimmy. Why can't these dealers diagnose these issues, you are a top guy , shame we don't have guys like you in the so called main steelers 😂we'll done again 👍

Glad I totally rebuilt the body on my smiley transit. Had it from new and covered over 500k miles now. Still use it to do journeys the length of the country without any issue, and it's not even that bad on fuel. When I watch these videos and tot up the cost of owning newer vans I realise I'd have to be mental to swap it, especially as you very often can't even fix it yourself!

Knowledge is everything i watched a lot of your vids and learned so much from you you can have the best diagnostic tools but its knowing how to use them and your the man great job

Nice job.That scanning tool looks like a great piece of kit, especially when you have someone like yourself who knows how to use it 😉

Jimmy, well done. It is surprising what one can achieve when a modicum of intelligence is applied.

Nice seeing you on Tuesday and sorting out my Audi and the further advice given 😎Car runs brilliant and hope no future issues 🤗 Have a lovely weekend🤗

Something seems to be wrong with main dealer training for mechanics. They are not doing proper fault diagnostic's, just changing parts with the hope that with fix the fault.

Stealerships are not interested in solving the problem, just applying sticky tape. Much like GP's.

Nice work Jimmy.

Logical deduction based on the data and observation. Superb work indeed. Main dealers are highway robbers.

I would like to know which Vauxhall dealer he took it to so I can avoid it! Well done Jimmy, I have posted this on the owners FB page.

My Vivaro did this anti-pollution system I had bought the kit that you use did what you do and all is good thanks very much for your help. That pipe that you unblock with the bicycle cable is a bugger though. ! She was blocked solid

Thanks for sharing all this knowledge, i have no problems atm but its always good to know whats moving my car forward 😊. Last engine i changed was on my Reliant 45 years ago. 😂😂. Keep up the good work Jimmy. Thx.

You should be teaching these garages how to fault find a d fix dpf

5⭐ mechanic, the best.

test don't guess. another great video

Another top job Jimmy!

Well done Jimmy

Love your video's jimmy keep them coming

Veritabe masterclass mate!

Cracking job Jimmy. 100 A1+

BRILLIANT... again!

Outstanding work as always.

It's actually unbelievable numerous garages and main dealers couldn't solve this.

Great job mate

Parts cannon without diagnostic, usually gives this result. Good job, Jimmy!

Top fella jimmy

Teaching me alot mate increasing my income thanks

Another great video, 👍

Jimmy need to use oem parts especially for engine sensors and modules.

I've just had one Jimmy on a petrol engined 1.8 Polo....its been everywhere and the customer said its the turbo...will you fit a new turbo...yep no problem...has the dealer seen the split in the boost pipe???

Great work, once again!

Nice work as always ☘️

Great videos Jimmy. Where do you get what the levels of soot, preasure differentials etc etc should be?

Try a pedal press jimmy your a legand im mobile to only just geting in to the dpf cleaning but its going will i use autel to also a mono meter keep up good work

Hello , Really appreciating what you are sharing with us , l have used it today on a 2012 Ranger , it has helped me alot and l thank you for. Great weekend to you all. Tigo

Great stuff.

straight to the cause,love watching a real tech at work.never get bored.

love watching your contents , but when are you going to invest in a headcam so you have two hands at all time lol

These 1.6dci engines keeping you busy lol

Hi jimmy can I ask regarding the battery disconnect faults if the all the battery connectors needed cleaning and removed from the lugs would you need to do a relearn on the scann tool .

Always an easy fix 😅 wish I could afford your service to fix my vivaro, all sensors working fine, just soot content increasing drastically on a press of accelerator, dpf clogging in no time, and only fault codes DTC200291 DTC200292 which means dpf clogged , will be checking injectors and turbo 🙈

Jimmy would you recommend a dpf clean annually on a new van going forward ?

As a mechanic i love this shit watching a pro

Do you do anything for bad backs and sore knees?

Dealerships and parts changers, they never fail to fail.

does your scanner reset range rover air suspension i think you brilliant thanks

That was fascinating, I don't know much about anything mechanical. Watched the whole video mind blown! Considering buying a Vivaro as my first ever vehicle, as I want to convert it and travel. Wondering if I could please ask you advice. Two people have now told me that vivaros are bad vans, would you agree with this? If not what would be the year and millage you'd suggest would be a decent van to purchase for converting into a camper. Theres some reasonably priced options around 50k/60k miles, and obviously cheaper again at 80k. The difficulty is I could waste money getting something really low millege and then take longer to convert it or i could save money getting higher mileage then it could be a waste as I'd be paying for repairs. Any tips would be really appreciated. Thanks

You’re an absolute magician. How do you accrue that amount of specialist knowledge?

jimmy is there any measure an owner can take to prevent tne D P F from blocking up

What calculates the soot content in the dpf

Hi I have a mercedes vito 2019 taxi. Goes into limp mode, no eml on or anything, changed nox sensor and o2 sensor, dpf seems fine. Any ideas what it could be. Also notice blue smoke now n again when idling at lights.

You Da man 👍

How do you get this good at fault diagnosis? Serious question. I'm not a mechanic. However, after spotting a video of yours where I realised my exterior temp sensor was toast- 88 deg c- so I self fitted a new Peugeot part to my wing mirror and now it's all good. £80 done. I don't get why modern garages are unable to diagnose issues.

Brilliant Jimmy. Quick question 2019 Mercedes sprinter van or Vw crafter which would you choose ??

Ignorance is bliss if you are a main dealer. Cha ching

great work Jimmy 👍👍

Went through something similar a few years ago when i needed a new dpf pressure sensor tried 2 different sensors one was 12 quid the second one was 30 something quid the car didn't like them it was only when i put a genuine vauxhall one on did the problem go away..

I have a feeling because it was in Vauxhall's the follow up mechanics must have thought it was not a blocked DPF so started firing the parts cannon at it

Impressive. I bet shop would change whole DPF filter. Would you be kind Sir and please tell me which diagnostic tool are you using there?

👍

Main 'STEALERS' don't want to fix anything straight away, they want to keep your vehicle for as long as possible and bill you by the hour until they can give you a bill for £1000 + otherwise, you are a very bad customer!

Hi , please can you elaborate me what scan tool you used and how much it costs? Thank you😊

i agree with the comment underneath but the gas thing about it is the charge people for the labour and parts it should be No fix no charge there a rip off

Im 3 mins in ,& already know the guitar wire needs coming out

Jimmy I live down south Wiltshire and Bournemouth area. Can you put me in touch with someone so I can get my VW T5.1 biturbo done like you U do.

My clutch is juddering vauxhall vivaro 2016 plate, any solutions 😁👍🏼 had master cylinder changed but still same 😕

Hello O' Riley you might be the man I'm looking for, my vauxhall vivaro has been having these issues for 6 months I've spent well over £1600 on DPF cleans and oil changes. How can I get in contact with you?

Ciao sono in Italia ho una opel Astra k diesel mi esce errore p2002 come lo risolvo? Ho provato a pulire il fap ma si accende la spia motore...quando accendo macchina il minimo diminuisce e poi si stabilizza subito dopo e non so da cosa dipende...

Hi ,i dropped a van into a garage with DPF problems. They said it was fixed ,drove it for a few days ,oil light came on ,pulled over ,dipped for oil not a drain of oil on the dipstick, phoned garage and asked if they checked for oil and they said know ,so basically they let a 4 year old renualt traffic out with dpf problems and not checking engine for oil ,is this normal or is the garage playing dumb here ?

The problem is the new Mechanic's are not getting the proper training and relying on computer to solve all problems

I have no issues with the work you do and have nothing against you personally. My issue is with the way the system works. It gets blocked because it’s saving the soot and emissions then it cleans itself back into the air. So if all the sensors and equipment wasn’t there it would just go back into the air exactly the same. Am I wrong? Please tell me if that’s right or wrong.

👍👍👍🆒💖

Jimmy'll Fix It 😂😂😂

I own quite a few vans and i've had more trouble with Vauxhall dealers than anyone else and i have tried a few, i do not buy vauxhall anymore

Surely this person can go and claim his money back as fitting all these parts didn't not correct the problem.

Buying Chinese crap off eBay.

everyone talks about proper diagnostics, but when it comes down to it, no one wants to pay for long hours often spent on piles of scrap.
