In addition to these thorough DPF assessments and cleaning, we also use JLM Lubricants soot filter additives to ensure regeneration at lower temperatures ie on shorter journeys.
The ultrasonic cleaning process is used in conjunction with solutions in suitable carrier liquids . As the ultrasonic-induced cavitation occurs, the effectiveness of the aqueous solution is greatly improved to deliver an outstanding clean. This can be down to the age of the vehicle, mileage or could be simply down to the driving style of the owner. Whatever it is, when a DPF warning light illuminates it often means a pretty expensive bill is on its way. From February 2014 the inspection of the exhaust system carried out during the MOT test will include a check for the presence of a DPF.

Choose performance, economy or a mixture of both to suit your requirement. Plus a Hydrogen and injector engine carbon cleaning with FREE diagnostics. Your local technician will be in contact to discuss the requirements and availability of this service.
DPF units are closely linked with other emissions components, if these parts do not function properly they can help to block the DPF, similarly a blocked DPF can damage these components due to excess back pressure. There are many DPF cleaning additives available promising a magic cure for DPF. We have yet to find one that will clear a blocked filter and will certainly not clear an Ash blocked filter. Some products can however be useful in keeping a functional DPF in good health. It is often said that you should “go for a blast” down the motorway to clear the DPF.
Manufacturers developed a method to ‘regenerate’ the DPF by driving continuously on a motorway for 30 minutes. At this speed, the engine temperature is high enough to burn down and loosen any clumps of soot stuck in the DPF. This active regeneration and needs to happen every few months, especially if you are driving in an urban environment, where soot builds up more quickly. A Diesel Particulate Filter captures soot particles, and is an essential component of any modern diesel engine, but can become blocked over time, and replacement isn't cheap.
To prevent this damage most new vehicles will go into “Limp Home” safety mode at this stage, meaning the vehicle will have minimum power barely sufficient to crawl home. A DPF is – you guessed it – a device in the exhaust system of diesel vehicles that filters particulates from the exhaust fumes. Designed to reduce emissions in line with European standards by filtering out soot and particulate matter from the exhaust gases as they leave the exhaust, your DPF can become clogged or inefficient over time.
And for a relatively unknown car component, it actually has one of the most important jobs in your car, which is to filter out and trap harmful emissions before they escape into the atmosphere. Finding a mechanic you can trust to do a good job and charge a fair price, is not always easy which is why we have simplified the process. And if you were thinking of saving all of that time and money by removing the filter completely, think again, it’s illegal to remove the DPF.
Your car's internal computer will monitor the level of soot inside the DPF to determine if regeneration is needed. When the level of soot hits a certain threshold, about 45% blocked, then the engine will turn on passive regeneration. If that process is interrupted then the warning light will come on to encourage the driver to do active regeneration. Our multi-stage DPF Cleaning System is actually a full reconditioning of your DPF. Goes to the extremes that the DPF Cleaning Co does to make sure we do it right and save you money.
A warning light will appear on the dashboard and shouldn't be ignored - if the filter fills completely your car won't run properly. Over time, soot will build up in your DPF, affecting performance, fuel economy and the quality of your exhaust fumes. Left unattended, a blocked DPF can cause extensive engine damage and potentially a fire hazard in your exhaust, which is easily avoided with regular check-ups. Depending on your driving style, you may need to get your DPF cleaned every six to twelve months.
