Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between DPF cleaning and DPF replacement?
Cleaning (£100–£300) removes soot and ash that has built up in a DPF that is still structurally intact. Replacement (£500–£1,200+) is needed when the filter is physically cracked, melted, or contaminated beyond recovery. A specialist will usually scope the DPF before recommending one or the other.
Will DPF cleaning fix the warning light?
If the DPF warning light is triggered by a blocked filter, professional cleaning typically resolves it. However, if the light is caused by a faulty DPF pressure sensor, a temperature sensor fault, or physical damage to the filter, cleaning alone won't clear the fault — diagnostic work will be needed.
How can I prevent my DPF from blocking again?
DPFs require long runs at motorway speed to regenerate (burn off soot). If you mainly do short urban trips, consider a longer motorway drive every few weeks. Using the correct engine oil specification is also critical — the wrong oil can contaminate the DPF quickly.
