Suite à ce problème j'ai boucher la sortie du pot catalytique et mis un filtre à l'entrée du démon j'ai fais 8000 km. Et aucun témoin n'est allumé la sonde de température à l'entrée de la vanne egr basse pression acceptée la température plus basse et gagnée 1,5 l. En moins en consommation de go
Voila si ça peu vous aidez
Bonne. Soirée

Following this problem I blocked the outlet of the catalytic converter and put a filter at the entrance of the demon I did 8000 km. And no warning light is on the temperature sensor at the inlet of the low pressure egr valve accepted the lower temperature and gained 1.5 l. Less go consumption
Well if that can help you

Oh dear, where did you get that from? Very bad French, and difficult to understand . Tell me more , even though I know it's all about the engine
EDIT If it's French person, then please let me have a conversation with this person, and give me her mobile phone number

Made a search in french by all means about demon being part of engine or exaust , not a single thing about it, so indeed, are you sure this person is French???
EDIT

All I can say if that deffo not a French speeking but Google or some sort of translation app. No French would make such mistakes when speaking. I can imagine writing it could be faulty with grammar, but the only mistake that can be done by a true French with no instruction, is writting phonetically. I made a few technical searches to understand the mechanical thingy. I did get what it's all about, but the translation would obviously include mistakes.
So who is speaking, please?

Hes written to me in french
So as I said previously, if you want me to make a proper translation without any potentially dangerous consequence because not understood in my own language, then tell this person to call me. I send you my mobile number by PM. Without details from himself I won't do it. Sorry indeed!

I think by 'demon' in this case he may be referring colloquially and in frustration to the cat converter, as in.... '.....and put a filter at the entrance [inlet] to the wretched thing' .

Either way I'm surprised he's asking for help as from the mods and checks he's made and the comments he seems to be pretty clued up.

I agree, they are calling it a devil because it causes problems.

Spriddler It would be something like
ce putain de truc or cette connerie de truc or cette saloperie de machin but not demon , no
Yes I agree, that's what I would have done, but you also noticed that the message had been written in non-native/very poor French..............:unsure:

Will be catalytic converter (CAT) or particulate filter (DPF). That has blocked because of the EGR bring stuck open allowing the soot through the system.

Yep but one thing even the less educated/instructed person won't be ignorant about is rude words or even just colloquial expressions. Demon I'm positive is not used at all. The only thing I can think of is : cette diablerie, ce truc demoniaque . not the noun demon

Well, as so often happens on here, we seem to only have part of the information/background to make guesses from.
It may be that the person with the problem isn't French at all but Algerian, Moroccan, Syrian, sub-Sahara African, Canadian etc. with their own local slang or patois. 🤷‍♂️

The original looks like the sort of response you get from a website where you have reported your problem ,IE an OBD reading and asked what it meant so the reply is not from a mechanic. and therefore not truly technical.

Yep, and for all we know the writer could have posted a Google translation into French from another language. Klingon perhaps?

If the french is so dodgy I suspect the writer is a Breton speaker as his first language. Does google even translate Breton. It was a response to an article I have written about OBD2 codes.

All Bretons speak French and write it in a way any French person would understand. That wasn't written by someone from Brittany. It was probably a google translation

Breton speaker
Thing is , breton is just about allowed. It can't be his first language. French only at school. Breton is now allowed to be taught at school, but it's quite recent. Brittany is a region only, not a kingdom or a country, it's France. I would think as it was suggested before, that it's already a google translation from another language, probably Arabian, Syrian , not canadian though. Canadian have different words but same syntax.

You clearly know more than me.
But what I know is the above is written as it appears above, in an English forum, where he has listed that he comes from Bretagne, and is adding it to an existing fault topic.

An interesting conundrum.

However, there are posters on here who have a location shown as e.g. Milan, but they aren't Spanish and may have only rudimentary skills in that language. :unsure:

You would have to go back maybe 100years ago to find some Britons who couldn't speak French!
You only have to go to many British cities to find some British people who can't speak English.
(I'm not being racist at all but pointing out that in the context of this topic just because someone says they come from e.g. Wales it doesn't necessarily mean that they speak that language well, or at all).
