DPF cleaning

We use a mixture of chemicals in our DPF cleaning equipment to flush out the inner workings of your DPF, helping your DPF filter continue its natural regeneration process. It also helps boost your MPG, engine performance and helps keep fuel costs down.

Diesel Particulate Filters are now tested as part of your MOT. If the exhaust emissions are too high, or the technician rules that your DPF is clogged or broken, your car will fail.

If you suspect your Diesel Particulate Filter isn’t regenerating properly, it’s better to act early. Once the DPF is 90% full of ash and soot, your car will enter ‘limp home’ mode, and most likely your only option is an expensive DPF replacement. 

Symptoms of a DPF problem include:

A dashboard warning light showing an amber exhaust

A loss of power

A major increase in fuel consumption

Your car fails to initiate DPF regeneration

A heavily smoking vehicle or a strong smell of diesel

A rising oil level

Your automatic start/stop system won’t work

If you notice any of the above, you should book your car in with us as soon as possible to avoid making the problem worse.
