Online DPF, EGR and DTC off Service for Renault Trafic

The third generation of Renault Traffic (X82), was produced since 2014; From 2014 until late 2019 came with a 1.6liter dci engine (R9M) and it was equipped with Bosch EDC17C42 ECU. The earlier models were Euro 5 standard emission calibrated so only had DPF and EGR system but from 2015 the AdBlue system was added.

It shares the same engine and ECU with Renault Fluence, Renault Megane, and Opel/Vauxhall Vivaro.

Renault Trafic common DTCs: 

• P0380: Glow Plug/Heater Circuit A Malfunction
• P0299: Turbo / Super Charger Underboost
• P0089: Fuel Pressure Regulator Performance
  This code is set when the PCM determines that the fuel pressure doesn't match desired levels. It is commonly caused by fuel pressure regulator failure, fuel pump failure, and fuel injector leaks.
• P0340: Camshaft Position Sensor Circuit Malfunction
• P0102: Mass or Volume Air Flow Circuit Low Voltage Input
  Means that there's insufficient air traveling through your air filter.

Renault Trafic Common EGR related fault codes:

• P0400: “EGR flow malfunction”
   (System did not detect expected amount of recirculated exhaust gas).
• P0402: “EGR flow excessive detected” 
  Too much exhaust gas being recirculated
• P0409: “EGR sensor A circuit”
• P0488: “Exhaust gas recirculation throttle position control range/performance”
• P1485: “EGR Valve circuit malfunction”
• P1498: “Voltage problem in EGR valve position sensor circuit”

Renault Trafic Common DPF related fault codes:

P2002: “Diesel Particulate Filter Efficiency Below Threshold (Bank 1)”
indicates the DPF isn’t trapping soot/particulates as expected.

P2463: “Diesel Particulate Filter Restriction – Soot Accumulation”
The filter is becoming blocked with soot/particulates.

P242F: “Diesel Particulate Filter Restriction – Ash Accumulation”
Meaning the DPF has too much ash build-up and is restricting flow.

P244A / P244B: “Diesel Particulate Filter Differential Pressure Too Low/Too High”
Related to the pressure sensor across the DPF measuring abnormal values.

P2452 / P2453: “Diesel Particulate Filter Pressure Sensor Circuit Low / High”
Electrical / sensor signal faults in the DPF pressure differential sensor.

P246C: “Diesel Particulate Filter – Soot Accumulation for Bank 1”
Again, a soot-build up code specific to a bank.

P2458: “Diesel Particulate Filter Regeneration Duration”
Indicates regeneration of the DPF is taking too long.

P2459: “Diesel Particulate Filter Regeneration Frequency”
Meaning regenerations are happening too often (often a symptom, not the root cause).

Renault Trafic EGR off Solution 

1. First read the EGR related DTCs using a scanner or diagnostic tool
2. Read the file using a ECU programmer/flasher via OBD port, in bench, or boot mode 
3. Upload the file with EGR related fault codes
4. After 20 minutes you can receive the file from your dashboard
5. Disconnect the EGR actuator plug
6. Write the file using the same read method
7. Clear DTCs using a diagnostic scanner

 

Renault Trafic DPF off Solution

1. Read the DPF related fault codes using a scanner or diagnosis tool
2. Do a forced regeneration with the original ECU file
3. Read the file using a ECU flashing/programmer via OBD port, bench mode, or boot mode
4. Upload the file with DPF related fault codes
5. After 20 minutes you can receive the file from your dashboard
6. Remove the DPF pressure and temperature sensors
7. Write the file and clear codes

Location of sensors in Renault trafic III

The differential pressure (DPF) pressure sensor on a Renault Trafic III is typically located in the exhaust/after-treatment system.

You will often find the sensor under the vehicle, close to the DPF housing or in the exhaust pipework just ahead of the DPF unit. In some Euro6 models the DPF pressure sensors is located in the engine bay, behind the engine.

DPF temperature sensors are located are generally located on or near the DPF housing/exhaust after-treatment assembly.

The temperature sensors are often mounted in the exhaust pipe either before (upstream) of the DPF or after (downstream) of the DPF. This allows the engine ECU to compare temperatures and determine if the DPF is regenerating and functioning correctly.

On Trafic vans, you’ll often find the sensor(s) underneath the vehicle, attached to the DPF unit or nearby exhaust piping.

EGR valve location

The EGR valve on the Trafic III (and many similar Renault/Nissan vans) is mounted on or near the intake side of the engine, typically between the exhaust manifold (or EGR cooler) and the intake manifold.

 

Renault Trafic Online EGR and DPF Delete Service and Pricing 

NinjaRemap offers EGR and DPF delete services for Renault Trafic. This service is provided only where EGR and DPF removal is legally permitted, and for vehicles authorized for such modifications, including racing cars, off-road vehicles, track cars, and certain fleet vehicles.

At NinjaRemap, EGR and DPF removal can be carried out entirely online. Simply read your original ECU file using a compatible flashing tool and send it to us through our ECU tuning service on the website or via WhatsApp. You will receive your modified file in less than 20 minutes.

We will perform the DPF and EGR delete and, if required, also remove any related or unrelated fault codes (DTCs). The total cost for all these services, including a 30-day warranty, is only $65.
