At DSA Autocentre we provide a high quality DPF Cleaning service in Sheffield. Our state-of-the-art flash DPF cleaning machine restores the Diesel Particulate Filter to at least 98% of its original condition so you have a practically brand new one. It only takes a few hours to clean your DPF and we can even offer a courtesy car from our Autocentre so you don't have to wait. We have quickly become well known DPF cleaning specialists in our local area. Often our DPF cleaning can be done within 24 hours of your initial phone call. Our cleaning provides a lomger term fix to your blocked DPF rather than a short term one.
Diesel cars from 2009 were fitted with a Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) in the exhaust to prevent the particulate matter into the atmosphere so it is vital that your DPF is working efficiently. Our DPF cleaning returns your Diesel Particulate Filter to a practically brand new one.
Blocked DPF Causes
Common causes of blockages in the DPF include;
- Short journeys at low speeds – when the engine does not reach optimum operating temperature
- Poor servicing
- Clogged EGR valve – increasing diesel soot passed to the DPF
- The wrong type of engine oil
- Having a higher mileage car may increase the chances of your DPF becoming blocked
You will notice your vehicle decreasing in power, increasing in fuel consumption, distinct smells and/or your vehicle entering limp mode if your DPF has become blocked.
If you have experienced any of the above problems, you may have also seen or noticed a warning light on your dash. Two potential warning lights could show, one being an Engine Management Light (EML), this will need diagnosing to guarantee the exact cause of the warning light, which we can also do at DSA. The other being an orange warning light shaped like a DPF (a piped box with dots in the middle) but can vary depending on manufacturer.
