DPF issues in Ellesmere Port are a common problem that people bring to our garage. The DPF or Diesel Particulate Filter has been an integral component in all diesel cars produced in Europe after 2009. The DPF minimises the particulate matter in diesel exhaust fumes from being released into the atmosphere. All diesel vehicles that are compliant with Euro 5 emissions standards need to be fitted with fully functional DPFs. Also, the DPF check was made part of the MOT test in 2014. This means that you cannot pass the MOT without a fully functional diesel particulate filter. A reliable garage should check your DPF regularly to avoid complications during your MOT.
As soon as the DPF light on your dashboard lights up, you should take your car for a check-up. In Ellesmere Port, DPF issues are common in cars that are used for frequent short trips. The basic DPF service involves taking it out and cleaning the filter. Accumulation of large soot particles from burnt diesel is the main causes of DPF issues. In most cases, it is enough to empty of clean the DPF. However, any residual particles after physically cleaning the DPF need to be burned off as part of a regeneration process.

Our team consists of professional diesel technicians qualified to perform any tests, checks or services you may require.
