DPF cleaning

DPF cleaning in Rødovre

DPF stands for diesel particulate filter and is an important part of the car's exhaust system. The filter collects soot from the engine, but if it clogs up, the car can start losing power, using more fuel, or go into limp mode. At MH Autoteknik Aps we help with DPF cleaning and a thorough assessment of the problem.

What is a DPF?

The particulate filter collects soot from the engine

A DPF is the car's diesel particulate filter. It's part of the exhaust system and its job is to collect soot particles, so emissions are reduced. Under normal conditions the filter is cleaned through regeneration, but that doesn't always happen as it should.

If the filter becomes too loaded or clogged, it can affect the whole car's performance. That's why it's important to react in time, so the problem doesn't turn into bigger, more expensive repairs.

Why it matters

When the filter clogs up, it's often felt quickly

A clogged particulate filter can cause problems with engine performance, fuel consumption, and general operation. In some cases you'll also see a DPF warning light, or the car goes into limp mode to protect the system.

The earlier the problem is taken seriously, the better the chance of finding a solution that lasts.

Symptoms of a clogged DPF

  • The check engine light comes on or the car reports a fault in the DPF system.
  • The car loses power and feels heavier to drive.
  • Increased fuel consumption and worse performance than normal.
  • The car goes into limp mode or limits its performance.

If you experience one or more of these signs, it's a good idea to have the car examined quickly, so the filter and related systems are assessed correctly.

How does it work?

How we work with DPF cleaning

01

Diagnosing the problem

We start by assessing fault codes, data, and the car's behavior to understand why the filter is loaded.

02

Cleaning or regeneration

When it makes sense, we proceed with cleaning or regeneration of the filter as part of the solution.

03

Follow-up check

Afterward we check the result, so you get a better picture of whether the car is working as it should again.
