Operation: How to get your diesel car to regenerate the FAP when you want.

How to force regeneration a 1.6 diesel engine. The car in the video is a Peugeot 207 1.6 HDI 110 HP, but it is valid for all engines of this EURO 4 capacity.

We quickly detach and reattach the clamp located on the left side of the engine, as shown in the video: the engine noise changes immediately because the regeneration cycle is starting.

At this point it is enough to drive in a completely calm way (2/3,000 rpm) for about a quarter of an hour. In this way you can decide when to have your car regenerated, when you take a sufficiently long journey and not when perhaps you are in the city and it regenerates badly.
