DPF problems expected to “increase significantly”

DPF-related problems will likely soar in the coming weeks as a result of reduced vehicle usage, experts at Carbon Clean have said.

Shorter journeys and a lack of servicing and maintenance are major contributors to DPF blockages.

A Carbon Clean spokesperson said: “The lack of maintenance and servicing has become increasingly worrying throughout the automotive industry.

“Many UK drivers have admitted that they have not bothered to keep up the servicing and maintenance on their vehicles throughout the pandemic.

“However, leaving vehicles without the proper servicing and usage will inevitably lead to issues.”

“The DPF automatically burns off most of the carbon residue when the engine is hot and can perform a DPF regeneration process.

“However due to most diesel owners only popping to the supermarket and back, the engine doesn’t get to perform this vital function.

“When vehicles are out of action for a long period of time, water and contaminants can enter the oil supply and result in sludge.

“This will generate more carbon and particulate matter (PM) to build up on major vehicle components.

“This kind of build-up is also likely to then lead to DPF’s becoming blocked.

“Many people throughout the UK are facing financial difficulties, therefore replacing their DPF with a new manufacturer DPF for thousands of pounds is likely to be out of the question.

“However, there’s one other alternative which works out to be cheaper and in fact easier.

“It could be therefore, the perfect time for your workshop to invest in one of these DPF cleaning machines.”

Carbon Clean’s DPF cleaning machines perform a professional deep clean of the DPF using high pressure air and water.

Its machines remove up to 100 per cent of carbon, ash and soot.
