What Causes A Blocked DPF?
A Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) collects harmful particles that are produced as a by-product of burning diesel fuel; these soot particles collect in the filter over time.
'Passive Regenration' is where a diesel engine automatically burns off these soot particles, although all diesel engines will suffer from a build up of soot and ash particles over time , resulting a blocked DPF.
Running a vehicle with a blocked DPF causes reduced performance and expensive running costs, and will ultimately lead to expensive engine damage.
