DPF faults, cleaning & regeneration

DPF light on or limp mode? We diagnose why it blocked and fix the cause.

Diesel particulate filters (DPFs) block up when they can't regenerate, often because of short journeys or an underlying fault like a sensor, EGR or injector problem. We find out why it's blocking, then clean, regenerate or replace it as needed.

Signs you need this

  • DPF warning light on
  • Loss of power or limp mode
  • Frequent regenerations or cooling fan running after switch-off
  • Smell or smoke from the exhaust

What we do

  • Diagnosis of the root cause (sensors, EGR, injectors, software)
  • Forced regeneration where suitable
  • DPF cleaning or replacement
  • Advice on driving habits to stop it coming back
How much? Every vehicle and fault is different, so we'll give you a price once we know what's wrong, always before any work starts.
