Hi All,
I've just finished experimenting with manual DPF regeneration with a friend who owns a Prado 2.8, see here for his post:
http://www.pradopoint.com.au/showthr...866#post574866
This procedure allows anyone with a scanguage or a $10 OBD2 dongle to perform a manual burn, just as a workshop would.
DO THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK.
To manually start a DPF burn:
- In the android Torque application a custom button can be created for this command containing the OBD command data 30 29 06 01 01
- In the ScanGauge a custom command/message can be added containing 3029060101
Note that page 255 of the Fortuner Owners Manual describes the manual regeneration procedure using a special button "if equipped". AFAIK, no Australian Fortuner / Hilux / Prado models are equipped with this button, but I believe the 200 and 70 series landcruisers may be. Nevertheless the manual describes when you would perform a manual burn (basically, if the "DPF full" warning is displayed). It also describes what to expect during the process. I highly recommend reading that advice, and only performing a burn under those circumstances. This could be extremely useful if you ever get the warning in the middle of nowhere.
EDIT: DPF Level Guage for SG2.
You can create a guage for SG2 or Torque to display the DPF accumulation level just as a workshop scan tool does.
The details for SG2 are:
TXD: 07E02138
RXF: 032104780000
RXD: 4008
MTH: 000200010000
NAME: DPA (or whatever)
For Torque, I believe you can set the PID to 2138, and the equation to J*2. That's it.
The workshop scan tools describe the value as a percentage, but apparently the value can go up to 180% at least.
At the completion of a manual burn, the value will be 6 or 8. I haven't had it enabled long enough to see how high it gets in normal use before an regular active regeneration occurs.
