What Is DPF Cleaning?
Diesel Particle Filter
The Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) is designed to trap harmful soot and emissions from diesel vehicles. Over time, soot and ash can build up faster than the vehicle can regenerate, leading to blockages and fault codes.
Launch Tech UK
The Launch DPF Cleaning Gun is designed to clean Diesel Particulate Filters (DPFs), a common issue on modern diesel vehicles. With strict emissions regulations making DPFs essential, professional cleaning helps keep them working efficiently and prevents costly problems.
Fast Turnaround Times
Typically, a DPF clean takes around 60 to 90 minutes.
The exact time can vary depending on:
1). The level of soot build-up - 2). Vehicle make and model - 3). Whether forced regeneration is required after cleaning.
We always assess the vehicle first to ensure a DPF clean is suitable and to confirm the expected time before starting work.
