Works good for a 2011 Seat with CAYC engine. The one issue that I have is that I need to refresh it manually. Even on first connect it doesn't read the values. Will try different settings and get back. Adapter is a VGate and phone is a Galaxy S8.
Reviews for VAG DPF
← Back to VAG DPFGood app. Does not seem to work on the newer Android 9 phones. Not mine anyway. Is this going to be sorted in the near future? I have the paid version which does not work at all now.....CORRECTION .. DID NOT WORK BUT CHANGED A FEW SETTINGS...ALL GOOD NOW...BRILLIANT APP AND A BARGAIN PRICE... TOP BACKUP AS WELL. THEY EMAILED ME WITHIN HOURS OF POSTING THIS. THANKS.
Can you make a 'loud' alarm when regeneration begins as the current one I never hear ! Also maybe a toggle for a bleep to indicate regeneration is in progress. Good app that works with my VW golf and a Q7. More info about what the boxes mean be good to for the non motoring savy Thanks
Very great application. I had to choose right engine group and it started working. Also I had problems on my phone with Bluetooth. Once I fixed my phone Bluetooth I can watch DPF regeneration in real time without problems. I recommend this app. Thank you to the creator of the app. I am using vgate as obd II adaptor.
This program works great for my 2015 VW Jetta TDI, US model (engine CVCA). It did not work for an earlier model I had (CJJA) but is great and offers a lot of information for the DPF and Adblue dependent engine. While CVCA engine is not listed in the engine list, this works great for me using my Galaxy S5. Thank you and please do not make any changes as it may screw things up!
Essential tool if you are serious on monitoring your cars health - as far as dpf goes... Worth every penny! There's space for improvement, such as keeping min and max values between sessions and accessibility (visual) improvements. Thanks and keep up the good work! For reference, I drive a 2011 (mk2/facelift) Skoda Octavia Break, 1.6 TDI CAYC engine. Mileage is about 153.000 KMs and I have had regenerations at about 250 KMs intervals.
Developer, you are a star. Works perfectly on my CAGA engine (except 3 bottom readings for injection of fuel doesn't work). But, importantly, I can see state of filter and how and when it burns soot off with passive/active regen. And see when it's completed. Recommended. I use it with Viecar adapter (white) from AliExpress.
This app is brilliant and I have recommended it to various people over the years to raise awareness of DPF regen vs deleting items due to poor driving styles. I was wondering if the developer would be interested in working on a 4.2TDI variant, even if it just read a single bank it would be helpful! I have proper diagnostic tools that can read it if needed.
I'm generally very pleased with the app but I am puzzled by the fact that it stops working after about an hour into a longer journey. No doubt there is a simple reason why this happens but the solution eludes me for the moment. Can you assist please Daaren? Update - all is working well now. Must have been a mistake on my part. UPDATE - definitely operator error! All now working well. Thanks for a great app!
Indespensible. Is there no option for 7 🌟's :) If you have a vag diesal and do mostly city driving, you have to have this app. Takes out the guess work of having to thrash the car on the motorway every couple of weeks. It will tell you when your car is regenerating so you don't turn off ignition,just keep driving to allow regen to take place. As well as soot levels it also gives reading on ash oil residue which can be a silent killer on dpf's. The developer deserves a medal. Well done.
Vag dpf is great when it works but often comes up with an general error reinstall app from playstore. Reinstalling the app is not simple as the app is already installed on the device and you have no re-install option as the device is greyed out. I have installed the app on my wifes phone and is working at present but what's the point if continually refuses to work when you need it hence four star's.
Very good app, but needs one improvement to be perfect. The value which shows the amount of soot increasing or decreasing per mile ( or km) needs colour coding, do that I can see at a glance without looking at the numbers. Eg white digits if it's decreasing (negative), and purple digits if it's increasing (positive). Even better would be if the picture of the filter was one colour when hot enough to burn off soot, bit another colour when the soot level is decreasing. Otherwise great !
Very good and useful app. Constantly used. Totally recommend.
for the phone it is ok, but on android auto it has an ugly interface and besides this problem it does not display what is very important: the percentage of charging or cleaning the dpf
really good, especially as it now supports android auto. now I can see if it's worth finishing a regen before I stop the car.
Been using the app for a number of years. very helpful in ensuring dpf regeneration. android auto support now has made the app even better
Brilliant app, now with Android Auto integration. Could do with being able to cusomize which data you want on screen, but overall, good start
Would be nice if it covered the CKRA. Would also be nice if there could be an ETA for next Regen in either time or milage. Could be listed as approximate ETA. Also for some of the values to add a max mark from corporate levels. lastly but not all I have for suggestions is to let use create our own interface like we can in the torque app. I would have 5 stars if our nms cars were covered.
I've been using this app for years and I love it. Now I changed the car and the engine is DTTC and does not work. Will it be possible? Edit: is working! group 97 👌🏻😊
The perfect DPF app; it just needs a modern design. The design is all right. All the info, the filter icon changing color after temperature and so on is great. It just needs a slightly more modern design like the DPF info app and will indeed be great, but overall it is a great tool to monitor DPF regeneration. I recommend it and hope the developers will implement a nice, modern UI in the future.🙏🏻👍🏻
