  1. The Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) P242F refers to a condition known as diesel particulate filter limitation, specifically caused by the deposition of soot. The detection condition for diesel particulate filter soot buildup is determined by the PCM by the use of the exhaust gas pressure sensor output. If the PCM detects that the quantity of soot buildup exceeds 11 g/L {0.69 Ib/ft3}, it concludes that the diesel particulate filter has an excessive amount of soot accumulation. The Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) will glow if the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) identifies a malfunctioning state during a single driving cycle, while also having stored a Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) for the same malfunction in the PCM. Freeze frame data is readily accessible. The Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) is kept inside the memory of the Powertrain Control Module (PCM). One potential factor that might contribute to this phenomenon is• Possible causes for concern include potential restrictions or damage to the piping of the exhaust gas pressure sensor, as well as potential restrictions or damage to the diesel particulate filter. Additionally, a malfunction in the powertrain control module (PCM) may also be a contributing factor.
  2. Failure to reset the oil data after an oil and filter change may ultimately result in the activation of the diesel particulate filter (DPF) indicator.
  3. The first step involves doing a diagnostic code check. What is the distance, measured in kilometers or miles, and the duration, measured in months, since the vehicle's most recent service?
  4. The running boards exhibit a considerable cost, although the disparity in price between the SWB and LWB variants of the L405 model was also limited to a range of around $6000. The L322 and P38A models did not have a long wheelbase (LWB) variant. The price range for the Classic model was around $4500. Perhaps the dealers were discussing the distinctions between special editions and the Autobiography variant in comparison to the standard version, specifically in the context of the Long Wheelbase (LWB) model.
  5. Shouldn't the "O" ring (or equivalent) on the filter housing be replaced as it becomes worn, or is that just the case in extreme cases?
  6. Water has been leaking into my A-Pillar on my UK RHD vehicle for the same reason as the OP. @gilesbracher Do you still have problems after the correction was made?
  7. My check engine light blinks when I press the button on the driver's door panel to reset the front passenger door's windows, and it also blinks when I report the latest recent reset. How should I proceed?
  8. I've used this for over a decade, and two 5 liter drums would set you back only £17.30.
  9. I've found that using a mixture of 60 percent water and 40 percent stone white (available on eBay) does the trick, and that my wheels remain spotless even after biweekly cleanings.
  10. using thread Believe it or not, they really do the job. However, I haven't tried it out for removing the smell of cigarettes. The air is left smelling fresh and clean from the chlorine. Not that chlorine is very pleasant, but this fragrance is more like that of a cleaned environment before it fades away completely. If I were to clean one of these well, I would bring it indoors and leave the air conditioning fan on recirculation for quite some time. https://www.biocidesystems.com/produ...RoCUV0QAvD_BwE
  11. To be honest, Samg86, I'm no expert, but I'd say that bollard is useless. (Optimusprime, I held off for the rational replies until now.
  12. Due to the issue that so much oil remains in the torque converter and the oil cooler, which contains less, you will likely need to change the oil three times in rapid succession for it to be cost-effective. Officially, the 6F35 has no service requirements, but I concur with your assessment. Yes, the standard H lights have been criticised, but legal-grade bulbs ought to assist. I do not believe that changing a light bulb is a five-minute task, so invest in high-quality bulbs. The very finest
  13. Hi all same issue over fuel consumption its worse than I thought now I have found out how to completly fill the tank. Tried Hyundai 3 times, SMMT twice, all hide behind the official VCA figures. May have found a legal loophole and am seeking legal advice next week.The figures in the early brochure quote 30MPG if you take the trouble to convert the litres to gallons this equates to 28 MPG not 30MPG.There is no errors or exception clause in the brochure so its up to Hyundia to ensure the "official" figures are correct.You also need to keep a copy of the original brochure ( page 17) quotes "even more economical 2.0 Common Rail Diesel" Looking at the new web brochure this has been taken out and the Urban fuel consumption reduced to 28MPG but the Extra Urban has been left at these unachievable figures of 42.1 Hope this helps anyone in the same position as me supporting the fuel companies profits!!!
  14. I once saw the late Eric Carlsson, a veteran rally driver, do a demonstration by driving over a tire knife at 60 mph while holding both hands up through the open sunroof of a SAAB 900. The automobile kept going straight like a dead end.
  15. You can find a lot more helpful information elsewhere. This discussion board has been active for nearly 5 years, during which time many topics have been discussed. Any question somebody may have has probably been addressed before.
  16. My 3 has a 1.6d engine.I'm guessing it has the same size gasoline tank as yours (12g/55ltr). When the final block on the fuel gauge burns out.It often has approximately 2/2.5 gallons remaining.Mazda's premise is that you don't have to worry about pulling dirt from the bottom of the tank. I can drive mine for a week with the reading showing 0 range.
