We present an algorithm that computes Friedl and L\"uck's twisted L²-Euler characteristic for a suitable regular CW complex, employing Oki's matrix expansion algorithm to indirectly evaluate the Dieudonn\'e determinant. The algorithm needs to run for an extremely long time to certify its outputs, but a truncated, human-assisted version produces very good results in many cases, such as hyperbolic link complements, closed census 3-manifolds, free-by-cyclic groups, and higher-dimensional examples, such as the fiber of the Ratcliffe-Tschantz manifold.
