DPF issues in Ellesmere Port can be easily rectified at our garage. 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.
All vehicles must have routine maintenance carried out on them to ensure they are working correctly. In Ellesmere Port, DPF issues can push your vehicle emissions above the level required by the stringent pollution regulations. This can leave you at risk of a fine and will prevent your car from passing the annual MOT test. Cleaning the DPF should be a regular part of the maintenance of the vehicle especially if your vehicle is used mostly in the city where the engine never reaches the speed required to regenerate the filter. Manual cleaning needs to be very carefully carried out as the filter is fragile and delicate and can easily be damaged.
