Our garage will solve any DPF issues in Wirral and keep your car’s emissions in line with the prescribed regulations. The diesel particulate filter (DPF) is a device designed to remove the tiny particles of soot from the exhaust gas of the diesel engine. Some filters will remove at least 85 % or more of the soot. Other filters are single use and are designed to be replaced once they are full of soot. The filters with a catalyst or a fuel burner can combust the soot making cleaning unnecessary. All these filters need to be checked on a regular basis to make sure they are working properly. Cleaning of the filters is required as part of periodic maintenance and needs to be done by a professional to avoid damaging the filter which can become delicate over time.
Running a diesel vehicle can be cheaper than its petrol equivalent. In Wirral, DPF issues are one of the maintenance tasks that should be regularly scheduled. Diesel particulate matter is the result of the incomplete combustion of the diesel fuel and the tiny soot particles can get into the environment through the exhaust. By law there is a very strict level of emissions allowed and if your vehicle is over the limit you could be heavily fined. Attention to the condition of the diesel particulate filter is therefore important. We can attend to this fairly quickly and have you back on the road whether it is for a clean, repair or replacement of the filter.
