Dammit man! Great video! I have a 2008 sprinter 2500 with 311,000 miles on it. I did this as a preventative measure and it made a noticeable difference. It gave my old van a little boost of power. Thank you for the great video!! Don

Drive at the freeway atleast 30 minutes a week. And make sure to give the throttle a good kick every once in awhile. This will keep your DPF in check. Also never interrupt a regen by turning the car off before it can complete the cycle. I have 155k miles on my diesel car and yet to have any problems. Never touched it. Also use fuel tank solvent that are DPF specific once every 3 months. This is optional but couldn't hurt. Additional possibility in keeping it in tip top condition. The more highway drive the better. Hope this info helps.

When my 2007 van would go into limp mode because of the dpf after 3 engine on off cycles it would go back to normal itself, would have to be something like a 5-10min drive not just start it and turn it off 3 times. Not sure if newer mercedes do this but if you don't have a scanner would be worth trying before going to dealer to delete the fault code.

I brought it to a MB shop repair but did not get the car back yet. The shop owner said that he will clean up first because he was very successful cleaning Sprinters before. This shop charges $130.00 per hour and a cheaper dealer price in my area charge $170.00 per hour. According to MB it is supposed to these cars to have a self cleaning but it did not happened on mine.

I used modified wand similar to your copper tubing with no side hole -instead strait opening in front crimped slightly with players and tested the spray pattern with fluid in order to adjust the crimp to have more surface spray --covered.It-- was very easy , and the more difficult part was to get in regeneration mode .Drove the van for approximately 20 min on 25-2600 rpm on local hwy.Than reset the P2463 --code.You-- are absolutely right about the temperature in regeneration- 475-500+F.Thanks for your great video !!! This was the only solution I can afford at this time to get the van back in service. NAPA auto parts -Liqui Moly/[special] order ,Auto zone -Oxygen Sensor Socket Pt # 27110 + 17mm fuel line slotted wrench. The pressure tubes and temp sensors are 17 mm. Thanks again!!!

Took it to the dealership trying to get an auto regen. They told the upstream sensor on the exhaust was bad. Charged me 850 to diagnose and chance a 50$ filter. Then they told me dpf filter needs to be changed and they can do it for 5k lol. They said the only codes left are turbo leak and dpf soot. They told me I change my dpf my turbo will kick on. I kept investigating and found that there's a hole in my down pipe which explains why my turbo isn't kicking on. Cleaned the dpf with Molly cleaner/purge and water. Exhaust is running a lot smoother. Coming out hot and strong. What computer can I buy to force regen a 2017 sprinter 3500. Your pg is extremely helpful. Thanks.

There is an inter cooler on the left side of the engine that needs to be cleaned. ( like every 70k miles) when that gets clogged up you get turbo under boost condition errors that will not go away. To get to that part it’s best to take off the front passenger tire and the fender well liner. If you don’t it’s hellish to get to. Don

Thanks for the reply. The problem was caused in my instance by a totally clogged fuel filter. I took the DPF off, inspected it and to my big surprise the Cat side had a bit of soot but the filter side was clean as a whistle. I couldn't believe it. It was clean cause I could blow air trough it and could feel the air on the other side. One of my friends came around and he said he spent 900$ to fix a similar situation but a friend of his who's a mechanic at a mine said: change fuel filter and the problem will go away. I bought new diesel filter, replaced it then I got someone in with a Snap On tool and he cleared the codes and on the instruction of the tool I reset the service symbol and then . . . TADA like nothing has ever happened.Back to full power. I'll have to make a video about it one day. It may save some poor bloke some money. It saved me 2500 $ . Some 'specialist' at deleting DPF said 1000$ for replacing DPF plus 1500$ for ECU re-map. HHHMmmmm

Seems like if you spend 30K for a diesel van, you can take the van out one day a week on the highway and blow out the DPF the way it was supposed to do. Let's face it, the DPF system is a bad one and the resultant cleaning the way you did it and the text book way is toxic to say the least. DPF is a stupid idea from the start and they should be ripped out.

I spotted a Sprinter on the freeway only the other day spewing out the worst amount of thick white smoke like I've never ever seen in my 50 years of driving, the Sprinter looked like it had done a million miles.The driver should have been fed to the sharks.

Mercedes Sprinter DIY, Removing is unit comes off one long piece. If you live in cold climate spray WD40 on the bolts day before you loosen the bolts. If you have pressure washer with flexible hose end stick it on the side the exhaust comes out. Push the Sd out the way it went in. Hope this helps.
I would've used oven cleaner
