What is a DPF Filter?
DPF is a filter that captures the soot from the exhaust of your vehicle to help reduce carbon emissions. One of the reasons for a failure is regular short trips, which doesn't allow the exhaust to get hot enough to burn off the soot.
What are the signs of a blocked DPF?
Reduced Power - once your vehicle has detected that your DPF filter is no longer efficient or working correctly, the whole vehicle will go into 'limp home mode'. This means a drastic reduction in power and acceleration.
Stop/ Start System Disabled - Another easy sign to spot is your vehicle stop/ start system is no longer working while you are driving around.
