Driving on with a clogged particulate filter?

In the short term you can often keep driving, but in the long run it is risky. Here are the possible consequences and when to act.

Driving on with a clogged DPF?
01

Can you still drive it?

Depending on the load the car keeps driving at first, often with less power. At some point it can go into limp mode. How long it still works cannot be said in general.

02

What risks exist

A heavily loaded filter raises the exhaust back pressure. This can burden the engine and the turbocharger. If the soot burns off uncontrolled, the ceramic substrate can be damaged, and then cleaning no longer helps.

03

When you should act

If the light comes on repeatedly, power drops or the car goes into limp mode, have the filter checked. The earlier, the better the chance that the original filter can be cleaned.

04

How we proceed

We check the filter and tell you whether cleaning is possible. Send us make, model, year and the symptoms on WhatsApp. We only give prices on request.

  • I had my DPF cleaned and was very satisfied. The staff are extremely professional and use state-of-the-art equipment. No other company in Alanya works as cleanly and carefully. I can recommend them without reservation 🙏

  • They cleaned the diesel particulate filter of my Peugeot 3008 and also helped me with other problems. Manfred and his friend Erden are very kind and helpful. Thank you both! Greetings from Bosnia
