Citroen DS3 1.6 HDI - EOLYS Fluid / DPF Replacement 

Afraid not buddy. It works much the same way as ADBLU. The motor won’t start once it drops to a certain level Andy👨🏼‍🔧

I wouldn’t think it would work without the memory card as that is what the software is loaded onto but you can anyways plug it in and see.

@@AMSVauxhall Really useful video Andy thanks for posting this. Which model of diagnostic scanner do you use and would you recommend it ? 👍

@nigelmitchell351 thanks buddy! 😊 I used a snap on Ethos for this but they are out of date now as they only go up to 2016 and the updates cost more than a new machine but if it’s only for personal use then it will plenty fine.

@@AMSVauxhall Thank you, but if you were to replace it what would you buy.?

@@nigelmitchell351 I’d probably buy the new snap on machine but I’d have a look at Bosch and Autel first.

It’s possible but it is more likely to be the pump at fault Andy 👨🏼‍🔧

Not my car and it’s easy enough to replace and it was due anyway. Nothing wrong with DPF system to delete it. Never understood the DPF delete 🤷🏻‍♂️

@@AMSVauxhall dpf remover eeprom???

I suspect that is a message directed more toward the DPF rather than the EOLYS. I take it you do a lot short journeys? I would suggest thrashing it but a good drive down the motor way would let it regenerate. Andy👨🏼‍🔧

@@AMSVauxhall thanks for the quick reply. Yeah its only used to take kids to school really. Ill take it on the motorway tomorrow for a bit. Should I keep the revs high?

@@zantar666 it should be fine just running along at 70mph for approx 20/30 mins. If the message still comes after that then a garage should be able to do a forced regeneration to sort it out. If you do regular short journeys then I would add cataclean once a month to help keep the internals clean and carbon build up minimum as possible

@@AMSVauxhall thank you so much. Thats a big help.. I used cataclean in my old swift and it worked well. I forgot about that stuff. Cheers mate.. Much appreciated

@@AMSVauxhall ok so just flown down the motorway.. Did about 150 miles, won't comment on the speeds but holy shit... Feels like a new car now, fault disappeared.... Thank you

I can’t remember if the message was about DPF clogging or no restart in xxxx….Miles. No the message won’t go away on its own. Once the bag is replaced you will need diagnostics reset the values Andy 👨🏼‍🔧

@@AMSVauxhall thanks man. Pretty sure I need to remove the DPF and clean it off the car, the emissions stink on my One. Checked the bag, it’s still got loads left in it

I think it was a 2012 model

Thanks I've had engine light come on in mine and its saying that the additive is low and I wasn't sure where it is located under the car

That’s the north east coast of Scotland for you 😏

rust was invented in Scotland 😢

Ich habe im Jahr 11/2019 einen Citroën DS3 gekauft und mehr als 10.000 € für Reparaturen, Zweimassenkupplung, Klimaanlagenpumpe, AGR, Partikelfilter, Turbo, Start-Stopp-Batterie, BSI-Systemeinheit und unzählige andere Dinge ausgegeben Reparaturen, das Letzte war das Problem des Austauschs der EOLYS-Flüssigkeit/DPF, weitere ca. 500 €. Es ist wirklich ein Fahrzeugbetrug und ich denke, wir sollten ihn Citroen melden, damit sie uns das Geld zurückerstatten können, das wir für dieses beschissene Auto bezahlt haben.
