​If you have a relatively recent diesel-engined vehicle, it's likely equipped with a DPF (Diesel Particulate Filter). This filter plays a crucial role in adhering to the stringent Euro emissions regulations by removing harmful particulates from diesel emissions.
​
THE PROBLEM

​

DPFs, like any filter, need to function efficiently. In ideal conditions, they self-clean through a process called regeneration. This occurs when the vehicle is running at optimal engine temperature, allowing the DPF to periodically clear itself.​​

However, in less ideal scenarios, like frequent stop/start driving or short trips, the filter may not efficiently self-clean. This can lead to clogging with soot, affecting performance, economy, and emissions. Preventative measures include periodic higher speed runs on an open road.

​

Nevertheless, once performance issues or warning lights appear, it often indicates significant soot accumulation. Over time, even DPFs in vehicles operating at maximum engine temperature will degrade and require replacement. Manufacturers typically classify DPFs as 'wear and tear' items, not covered by vehicle warranties.​

​

THE EXPENSIVE  SOLUTION

​

Replacing your DPF with an original one from your manufacturer can be costly, often exceeding £1,000. Alternatively, generic aftermarket DPFs might save money upfront but can pose risks in terms of longevity and compatibility.​
