Allowing for the diagnostic checks before and after, most visits take about 90 minutes \u2013 longer if the DPF is very heavily blocked.<\/p><\/div><\/details>\n<details><summary>My garage says they can regenerate the DPF. Will that work?<\/summary><div class=\"a\"><p>Regeneration means heating the DPF to around 600\u00b0C to burn off the soot inside. It happens automatically when the engine management system senses a build-up. A mechanic can also force it, but that carries a risk of cracking or damaging the DPF. If the engine\u2019s own regeneration has failed to clear the blockage, a forced regeneration rarely works without proper cleaning as well. <a href=\"https:\/\/dpf-fixer.co.uk\/dpf-what-is-a-forced-regen\/\">Read more here<\/a>.<\/p><\/div><\/details>\n<details><summary>How can I be sure your clean will work? A local garage cleaned it and the light came back on.<\/summary><div class=\"a\"><p>Garages often try to burn the soot off with a forced regeneration, but that doesn\u2019t clear severe blockages. We specialise in DPF cleaning and can remove even the most stubborn blockages, using a cleaning solution we manufacture ourselves.<\/p><\/div><\/details>\n<details><summary>Will you reset the dashboard lights?<\/summary><div class=\"a\"><p>Yes. After the clean, the engineer resets the relevant warning lights.<\/p><\/div><\/details>\n<details><summary>My garage says the DPF needs replacing because it\u2019s blocked. Is that true?<\/summary><div class=\"a\"><p>Not usually. A blocked DPF can almost always be cleaned \u2013 clean where suitable, replace only where necessary. If the DPF is physically damaged it will need replacing, and we\u2019ll tell you.<\/p><\/div><\/details>\n<details><summary>Will you fix my vehicle\u2019s other faults too?<\/summary><div class=\"a\"><p>We deal with the DPF and the faults and blockages related to it, and reset the dash lights. A blocked DPF often has an underlying cause \u2013 such as sensor, EGR, injector, turbo or thermostat faults \u2013 and our engineer will advise you on anything else that needs fixing.<\/p><\/div><\/details>\n<details><summary>When can\u2019t you clean the DPF on the vehicle?<\/summary><div class=\"a\"><p>We always run a full diagnostic health check first to make sure the clean can be done.

Warranty, aftercare and prevention<\/h2><\/div>\n<div class=\"dfx-faq\">\n<details><summary>Is a warranty offered?<\/summary><div class=\"a\"><p>Yes. Every DPF clean comes with a 30-day warranty covering the cleaning work we carried out. How the vehicle is driven also affects the DPF, so our engineer will advise you on keeping it healthy after the clean.<\/p><\/div><\/details>\n<details><summary>What if the warning light comes back on?<\/summary><div class=\"a\"><p>Call us straight away. You\u2019re covered by our aftercare, and we\u2019ll arrange to come back and investigate.<\/p><\/div><\/details>\n<details><summary>How long will the clean last?<\/summary><div class=\"a\"><p>That depends on how the vehicle is used and the health of the engine. Our engineer will explain why your DPF became blocked, so you can reduce the chance of it happening again, and let you know when your next preventative clean is due.<\/p><\/div><\/details>\n<details><summary>How do I keep my DPF healthy?<\/summary><div class=\"a\"><p>Get any underlying faults \u2013 such as sensors, EGR or injectors \u2013 fixed, keep the vehicle properly serviced, and have the DPF professionally cleaned at the recommended interval. Vehicles used mainly for short journeys are more likely to block again, so if a warning light appears, call us rather than waiting for limp mode.<\/p><p>A good-quality additive can also help keep a healthy DPF in good condition between cleans \u2013 our own EcoPeak range is available in our <a href=\"https:\/\/shop.dpf-fixer.co.uk\/search?q=ecopeak\">online shop<\/a>. Additives will not unblock a blocked DPF, though, and no additive can guarantee it won\u2019t block again. If a warning light is on, the DPF needs cleaning.<\/p><\/div><\/details>\n<details><summary>How often should I have the DPF cleaned?<\/summary><div class=\"a\"><p><b>Cars:<\/b> soot and ash start to build up in the DPF whenever the vehicle is driven. The effects are minimal at first, but gradually the engine has to work harder. Driving patterns, fuel quality and engine health all play a part, but for a sensible balance we recommend a professional DPF clean every 20,000 miles or 24 months. This greatly reduces the risk of costly repairs, keeps emissions in check and maintains fuel efficiency.<\/p><p><b>Vans and LCVs:<\/b> especially those doing short urban trips or running speed-limited, the intervals should be shorter \u2013 and the benefits of cleaning are often more noticeable.<\/p><p><b>HGVs:<\/b> ash build-up is a bigger issue than soot, because regeneration doesn\u2019t clear it.

Where possible we do a short road test to confirm full power is restored.Your reports: copies of both health checks are emailed to you for your records.30-day aftercare warranty on the cleaning work.\"}},{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"How long will the visit take?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"The clean itself takes around an hour. Allowing for the diagnostic checks before and after, most visits take about 90 minutes \u2013 longer if the DPF is very heavily blocked.\"}},{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"My garage says they can regenerate the DPF. Will that work?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"Regeneration means heating the DPF to around 600\u00b0C to burn off the soot inside. It happens automatically when the engine management system senses a build-up. A mechanic can also force it, but that carries a risk of cracking or damaging the DPF. If the engine\u2019s own regeneration has failed to clear the blockage, a forced regeneration rarely works without proper cleaning as well. Read more here.\"}},{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"How can I be sure your clean will work? A local garage cleaned it and the light came back on.\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"Garages often try to burn the soot off with a forced regeneration, but that doesn\u2019t clear severe blockages. We specialise in DPF cleaning and can remove even the most stubborn blockages, using a cleaning solution we manufacture ourselves.\"}},{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"Will you reset the dashboard lights?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"Yes. After the clean, the engineer resets the relevant warning lights.\"}},{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"My garage says the DPF needs replacing because it\u2019s blocked. Is that true?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"Not usually. A blocked DPF can almost always be cleaned \u2013 clean where suitable, replace only where necessary. If the DPF is physically damaged it will need replacing, and we\u2019ll tell you.\"}},{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"Will you fix my vehicle\u2019s other faults too?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"We deal with the DPF and the faults and blockages related to it, and reset the dash lights. A blocked DPF often has an underlying cause \u2013 such as sensor, EGR, injector, turbo or thermostat faults \u2013 and our engineer will advise you on anything else that needs fixing.\"}},{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"When can\u2019t you clean the DPF on the vehicle?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"We always run a full diagnostic health check first to make sure the clean can be done. If the vehicle won\u2019t start or run properly, there are other faults that need fixing first \u2013 or the DPF can be removed and sent to us for off-car factory cleaning. If the DPF is physically damaged, it will need replacing.\"}},{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"Is a warranty offered?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"Yes. Every DPF clean comes with a 30-day warranty covering the cleaning work we carried out. How the vehicle is driven also affects the DPF, so our engineer will advise you on keeping it healthy after the clean.\"}},{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"What if the warning light comes back on?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"Call us straight away. You\u2019re covered by our aftercare, and we\u2019ll arrange to come back and investigate.\"}},{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"How long will the clean last?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"That depends on how the vehicle is used and the health of the engine. Our engineer will explain why your DPF became blocked, so you can reduce the chance of it happening again, and let you know when your next preventative clean is due.\"}},{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"How do I keep my DPF healthy?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"Get any underlying faults \u2013 such as sensors, EGR or injectors \u2013 fixed, keep the vehicle properly serviced, and have the DPF professionally cleaned at the recommended interval. Vehicles used mainly for short journeys are more likely to block again, so if a warning light appears, call us rather than waiting for limp mode.A good-quality additive can also help keep a healthy DPF in good condition between cleans \u2013 our own EcoPeak range is available in our online shop. Additives will not unblock a blocked DPF, though, and no additive can guarantee it won\u2019t block again. If a warning light is on, the DPF needs cleaning.\"}},{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"How often should I have the DPF cleaned?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"Cars: soot and ash start to build up in the DPF whenever the vehicle is driven. The effects are minimal at first, but gradually the engine has to work harder. Driving patterns, fuel quality and engine health all play a part, but for a sensible balance we recommend a professional DPF clean every 20,000 miles or 24 months. This greatly reduces the risk of costly repairs, keeps emissions in check and maintains fuel efficiency.Vans and LCVs: especially those doing short urban trips or running speed-limited, the intervals should be shorter \u2013 and the benefits of cleaning are often more noticeable.HGVs: ash build-up is a bigger issue than soot, because regeneration doesn\u2019t clear it. Scheduled cleaning based on engine hours is an essential part of fleet management \u2013 see our fleet DPF maintenance page or talk to our commercial team.\"}}]}<\/script>\n\n\n<section class=\"dfx-sec dfx-final\" id=\"contact\">\n<div class=\"dfx-in\">\n<div class=\"dfx-eyebrow\" style=\"justify-content:center\"><span class=\"dfx-dots\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><i><\/i><i><\/i><i><\/i><i><\/i><\/span> Booking Enquiry<\/div>\n<p class=\"dfx-h2\" data-dfx-closed=\"Lines closed \u2013 message us on WhatsApp\">Call us for immediate attention<\/p>\n<a class=\"dfx-bignum\" href=\"tel:03333661404\">0333 366 1404<\/a>\n<div class=\"dfx-hours\">Our lines are open 7.30am to 6.30pm Mon-Thurs, and 7.30am to 5.30pm Fridays.<\/div>\n<div class=\"dfx-btns\"><a class=\"dfx-btn dfx-btn-call\" data-dfx-call href=\"tel:03333661404\"><svg viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" width=\"20\" height=\"20\" fill=\"currentColor\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><path d=\"M6.6 10.8a15.1 15.1 0 0 0 6.6 6.6l2.2-2.2a1 1 0 0 1 1-.25 11.4 11.4 0 0 0 3.6.57 1 1 0 0 1 1 1V20a1 1 0 0 1-1 1A17 17 0 0 1 3 4a1 1 0 0 1 1-1h3.5a1 1 0 0 1 1 1c0 1.25.2 2.45.57 3.57a1 1 0 0 1-.25 1z\"\/><\/svg> Call now<\/a><a class=\"dfx-btn dfx-btn-book\" href=\"https:\/\/dpf-fixer.co.uk\/contact-us\/\"><svg viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" width=\"20\" height=\"20\" fill=\"currentColor\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><path d=\"M7 2v2H5a2 2 0 0 0-2 2v14a2 2 0 0 0 2 2h14a2 2 0 0 0 2-2V6a2 2 0 0 0-2-2h-2V2h-2v2H9V2zm-2 8h14v10H5zm2 2v2h2v-2zm4 0v2h2v-2zm4 0v2h2v-2z\"\/><\/svg> Book online<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<script>\n(function(){\nvar WA='https:\/\/wa.me\/447846871458?text='+encodeURIComponent('Hi.
