several tuners now can tune cars via flash without removing the ecu. Dudmd and ecuprogram to name a few. As for the dpf delete pipe, there is no kit. You will have to find someone to make one or to chip out the core.

contact one of tuners and see what options they have.

Fact is that E250 Bluetec is rare animal in America, so if you don't DIY, you will suffer from lack of qualified service, but once again, technology for repair is easy to find and become affordable (still can't understand why DPF for sedan cost 50% more than for the same engine in Sprinter though)
Side note - my 2014 model has DPF model that can't be find anywhere. Dealer found me a rebuild substitute, but couple years ago they could not supply it.
Now we have new forum sponsor who offers new, aftermarket DPF with all certifications and warranties. He already has DPF for Sprinters and promised DPF for E250 are on their way.
Kajtek-- If I buy the aftermarket -cheaper versions- DPF/Nox-- don't these replacements require a MB programming by the dealer? So how do you get around that?

Please advise- for 2014 e250BT

thx

DPF is mechanical part only and doesn't require any coding.
Nox sensor on other hand has computer module and require SCN coding, when you replace whole thing.
HOWEVER. you can buy probe only for about $80 and DIY without coding.

Is probe separate part-- or PART of the Nox sensor?

What site/ do you use to buy these cheaper after market parts?/ Seems like all DPF filters are $1,000 ➕ right now

thx

DPF are sold by forum sponsor, probes are on ebay
Did you at least buy the car to worry about those things?

GLK250 (distinct CAT/DPF)

E250 (DPF/CAT combo)
how did you end up resolving this with hardware? I had the same car in the states and I am done with aDBLUE.
