No-Nonsense DPF Fix!
If you own a modern diesel car, chances are it's equipped with a Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF). These soot-removing filters can become clogged over time, requiring periodic cleaning to avoid expensive repairs.
Our DPF Deep Clean is a professional treatment specifically designed for partially blocked DPFs with some soot build-up. The service includes a thorough inspection of your DPF to identify the cause of the blockage, a direct flush of the filter, and a test drive lasting at least 20 minutes.
Once a clean is completed it is highly recommended that you prevent the soot from building up again with a maintenance clean every 6 months. This will prevent a blockage in future.
Book your appointment with Service My Vehicle for the peace of mind that comes with a clean DPF, potentially saving you thousands of pounds in costly DPF repairs.
DPF Flush & Maintenance
When a Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) becomes blocked and regeneration fails to clear it, a flush becomes necessary. Common signs of a blocked DPF include a noticeable loss of power and a negative impact on fuel economy.
A DPF flush can be a crucial solution to restore optimal performance and efficiency.
Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) maintenance is necessary once the system is restored to normal driving conditions. To clean is a proactive approach to prevent blockages from becoming problematic, as it lowers the burn-off temperature of soot inside the DPF.
It is recommended to perform a DPF clean every six months or earlier if you experience a decline in power or fuel efficiency. To maintain you simply add the maintenance cleaner into the fuel tank.

What is a DPF?
A Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) is an essential component designed to collect exhaust fumes while driving, preventing their release into the atmosphere. Developed to meet regulations for reducing diesel emissions, DPFs are commonly installed in modern diesel cars. The process of capturing exhaust fumes results in the accumulation of soot in the filter. Regular maintenance is crucial, as DPFs are inspected during the annual MOT test.
How do Diesel Particulate Filters work?
The exhaust gases from a car's engine flow through the Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF), causing it to accumulate soot. When the exhaust temperature rises, the trapped soot transforms into ash and is expelled in a process known as 'regeneration.' This regeneration occurs when the car is driven at speeds exceeding 40 mph
However, if the car is primarily driven at lower speeds or for shorter distances, the regeneration process may not have sufficient time to complete, potentially leading to issues with the DPF.
What are the common symptoms of a blocked DPF?
Typically an issue with the DPF is indicated when a signal is sent to the car’s ECU (engine control unit) illuminating the warning light on the dashboard.
A noticeable loss of engine power, increased fuel consumption, automatic stop & start not working and the illumination of the DPF warning light on your dashboard are key indicators. Additionally, if you observe excessive smoke emanating from the exhaust during acceleration or notice your engine running at higher temperatures, it may signal a blocked DPF.

How much will a repair cost?
A Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) flush is offered at a starting price of £99. It is crucial to ensure your vehicle has an adequate fuel supply, as the severity of the blockage may require an extended test drive. The service includes unblocking the DPF, restoring the vehicle to optimal performance, and providing a DPF Maintenance cleaner, all covered within the specified price.
What to do before I booking a DPF Flush?
You may attempt to clear any blockages in the Diesel Particulate Filter by taking the car on a long journey at speeds exceeding 40mph. It is recommended to engage in motorway driving, preferably in lower gears. If the warning light persists and fails to go out, it may indicate that a DPF flush clean is necessary. In such cases, seeking professional assistance becomes crucial to address potential issues with the DPF effectively.
