DPF Deletes
DPF removal also know as a DPF deletes are becoming increasingly popular. As many people are unaware of what this component is or what it does until the problem occurs, here is a little information for you.
A diesel particulate filter is fitted to the car's exhaust system and is designed to remove the diesel particles or soot from the emissions of the vehicle. As you drive around town the soot particles in the exhaust gases are trapped by the filter and then periodically burned off through its regeneration cycle performed whilst doing typical motorway driving. This is not ideal if you are only doing short journeys, as the filter will collect the soot particles but will be unable to clean itself.
Eventually, the filter will become blocked, resulting in warning lights appearing on the car’s dashboard and in many cases causing a loss of power effectively due to the engine being unable to push out its exhaust gases through the blocked filter.
Whilst in theory these components are a great idea to lower emissions and pollution from diesel engines unfortunately, we are seeing a ridiculous number of failures, leaving customers with an expensive repair bill well in excess of £1000.

Our service works by removing the DPF filter from your diesel vehicle’s exhaust system and modifying the software in your engine control unit (ECU) to prevent any warning lights from returning.
