Please Note: If a reply is not received this may cause your order to be delayed. Thank you for your co-operation. |
An Exhaust Particulate Filter, also known as a Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF), removes the soot from the exhaust gases of a diesel engine. The gases are filtered through and the tiny pieces of soot that come from the burnt fuel are collected in the filter and therefore reduce emissions.
Once your filter is full, the soot is burnt to ash, either when the exhaust reaches a high enough temperature or when your vehicle initiates the process itself.
While DPF’s do a brilliant job at reducing emissions going into the atmosphere, they can come defective over time and may need replacing. Usually, the first sign of a problem is when the DPF light is illuminated on your dash. This indicates that there is at least a partial blockage in the DPF system.
Please check the Notes section in the eBay compatibility table for fitment information relating to your specific vehicle. Failure to do so could result in the incorrect part being purchased.
