Mobile DPF Cleaning in Upminster
We offer a fully mobile DPF clean in Upminster
Diesel particulate filters (DPF) are designed to reduce diesel emissions by trapping soot particles in the filter, these particles are then cleared by a DPF regeneration, however over time and due to lack of correct maintenance or servicing the DPF can get excessively contaminated which causes them to block and cause your vehicle problems.
We are experienced in all aspects of DPF cleaning in Upminster and you can call us for free impartial advice and see how we can help improve your vehicle’s performance with a mobile DPF clean.
Does my DPF require a clean?
If your diesel vehicle has any of the below symptoms then your DPF needs to be inspected and cleaned otherwise you could be facing a large repair/replacement bill.
- DPF or Anti-pollution warning light illuminated
- Check engine light illuminated
- Lack of power and poor performance
- Engine rough running
- Excessive smoke from the exhaust
- Poor fuel economy
- Louder than normal exhaust noise
- Engine starting then stalling
Why does the DPF get blocked?
This can be down to a number of reasons; typically the DPF will get damaged/blocked due to the following reasons.
- Short journeys at low speeds in high traffic areas, the DPF is not getting the chance to get hot enough to perform the regeneration.
- Lack or servicing and maintenance, if the vehicle is not regularly serviced the poor oil quality will result in excessive soot build-up in the DPF.
- Wrong engine oil being used, there are various grades of oils for modern diesel engines and it is very important to use the correct specification oil.
- Exhaust, DPF or fuel additive sensor/component failure, if any one of these sensors or components are not working correctly the engine will not run to the optimum performance and can cause DPF problems.
How do you clean the DPF?
We can clean the majority of DPF’s for all makes and models by the roadside without having to remove the DPF and incur you extra removal/refitting charges.
Our trained technicians will arrive in one of our fully equipped vans to perform the DPF cleaning process, the first step is to diagnose the vehicle and assess the DPF health. Once we measure and evaluate the DPF’s operating state we can start the cleaning procedure. This involves using a special formulated soot cleaning chemical which is directly injected into the DPF as the vehicle is running. As the vehicle is running the exhaust back pressure ensures the cleaning chemical is effectively administered through the whole DPF for an accurate and efficient clean. After the DPF clean the technician will diagnose the DPF again to make sure the service has been carried out correctly and cured the problem.
