Can you help me mate, my Scania P410 is stuck in limp mode. That’s the first thing John said when I answered his call.
John, the proud owner of a small but efficient Scania fleet of P410, faced a significant setback when one of his Scania XT P410 was in limp mode permanently…
He had been using an adblue emulator to get him going for the previous weeks but eventually, the system ignored the Adblue emulator and finally went into limp mode on a busy motorway causing him to get the truck towed to his yard, which cost him a few hundred quid.
Frustrated and concerned, John immediately decided to take matters into his own hands and search on Facebook and in few Facebook groups, seeking advice and potential solutions for the limp mode issue plaguing his Scania XT P410 truck. While he found a community willing to offer insights, the complexity of the problem required hands-on expertise.

That’s when John decided to give me a ring and I explained to him what could be the potential causes and solutions available. I booked him in and travelled to his workshop in Leicester, Upon arrival I got to work and diagnosed the problem with our specialised Scania diagnostic tool.
Steps We Took To Solve John Scania P410 Limp mode
First, we carried out a function test on the SCR system – see image below, this test will check all of the Adbue system components such as nox sensors, differential sensors, temperature, etc…
After a few tests, the problem was caused by a blocked DPF and a knackered T131 sensor, if you know, you know these are typical problems with these vehicles.
No time was wasted and an original Scania t131 NOX sensor was ordered and collected meanwhile the DPF was cleaned the same day.
Problem Solved + Power Increase
After assembling and verifying that the problem was sorted we took it for a test drive and John was happy that his truck was back to its former glory, then he asked if we could do a power increase which would give him an extra +70hp & +400nm in torque and also a better fuel economy.
As the truck roared back to life and with its extra power, John couldn’t help but express his gratitude. He knew that the swift resolution not only saved him from further financial losses but also restored his confidence in the reliability of his fleet.
