    Going to raise this post from the dead as I can't find anything relating to it, has anyone every changed there 5th injector? - and if So does it need programming to the ECU? - I've just bought myself one but don't want to have to take it all apart to find out I then need to tell the ECU it's new! Hope someone can help!

    This seems to be the one that I have, at least i Think it is? have you had success ever at regenerating a DPF, in particular is lexus 220d ones?

    I use laptop with techstream also however, The cable that i'm using doesn't seem to allow me to do a regeneration of the DPF? - what cable do you use Herbie?

    John, EGR Valve is opening and closing (tested using Techstream) The fueling could of been the issue? I will top that up! Well as far as I know it does, I don't have an DPF Error on the dash, however, it smokes constantly! I wanted to try a regeneration before purchasing a 5th injector and trying other routes. Also - I have once tried and failed with replacing the DPF, the one I bought was the wrong one for the car and so the old one went back on! when i looked inside the old one some of the material was a little bit broken? thank you for your help!

    Hi John, Yes up to temperature and running, I run the test and watch the RPM's and they don't change.

    Hi, I purchased toyota techstream a while ago through ebay in order to do my own DPF Regeneration. Recently i managed to get connected to the vehicle and could read all the data etc. However when i went to do a regeneration the option came up to enable it, and when i clicked this although it changed to say "Yes" for regeneration the car actually did nothing? Can anyone help or explain what Im doing wrong?

    Well I've owned the car 2 years and haven't done the air filter until now but it really shouldn't ever get to a condition like this
  13. Koum
    So this is where the leak was coming from was missing the bolt circled as shown. Replaced this and the leak has gone, however I don't think that's going to fix everything and believe that its all backed up everywhere and the whole system needs clearing out. Going to be doing intake and manifold clean and may even replace the DPF as its caused nothing but issues however no more check engines in the recent months so thought it had cleared itself out... obviously not... Also check out this air filter !

    Can't seem to find a guide on removing the exhaust manifold. Does anyone have any link to a manual or anything of any help?
  15. Koum
    Will try and give this a go! will have to wait until the weekend for now just hope it lasts until then!

    I was thinking manifold because of the sheer amount of smoke plus it smells so bad in the cabin exactly like the exhaust :s Yes it swirls as you say, when it reaches the fan... guessing its the manifold i suppose i need to investigate further but know its not an easy task to remove said manifold. Turbo seems to be acting fine though comes in as and when it should - would it effect its operation if this was to be bad? It also has a layer of some kind of soot on the plastics? so again i suppose this suggests the manifold?

    I know this isn't a great deal of information but is anyone able to help diagnose? It happens obviously allot more when the car is warmed up and it seems to be coming from the left hand side of the engine bay around the turbo but not actually the turbo.. Something is clearly leaking but just hoping someone may be able to know something thats common issue that happens around this area? VID_20181029_072716.mp4

    Below is a few problems that I hope someone can help me with... • Engine makes a tapping noise (will record audio / video in due course) • When in traffic after driving for a while the engine feels like its going to conk out and does on occasion • Occasionally if I have to do a sudden brake the power of everything feels like limp mode but doesn't actually enter it. Can't go fast at all and now power whatsoever. • Feels like I have no power whatsoever until the turbo kicks in. Believe this is it? Hope someone can shed some light maybe there all linked?
