At Nicholson Motors, we carry out DPF Cleaning Scunthorpe
A DPF, or diesel particulate filter, is a critical component in modern diesel vehicles designed to capture and store exhaust soot in order to reduce harmful emissions released into the atmosphere. By trapping the particulate matter, the DPF not only contributes to cleaner air but also supports compliance with environmental regulations and helps improve overall engine performance. Regular maintenance and occasional regeneration of the filter are essential to ensure it operates efficiently, preventing blockages that could lead to costly repairs or decreased fuel efficiency. Understanding the importance of the DPF is key to maintaining your vehicle’s health and longevity whilst driving towards a greener future.

DPF systems are designed to automatically clean themselves, whilst driving through a process known as passive regeneration. This occurs when the vehicle is on a longer trip and reaches optimal temperature, but will not happen if the vehicle is not adequately warmed up or is used for short, stop-and-start style journeys. If the DPF fault light comes on, it usually indicates an issue with one of the various sensors that monitor the DPF system’s pressure and temperature. At Nicholson Motors, we have completed the essential training to diagnose your vehicle’s issues accurately. It is ineffective to clean or force the vehicle into a DPF regeneration using diagnostic tools without first identifying the underlying problem, as the blockage is likely to reoccur. We find the root cause of any issues to prevent on-going issues and/or your vehicle not being reliable.
It is especially important in diesel vehicles to have your service regularly using the correct type and quality of oil, as well as taking it on longer journeys at least once every two weeks.
