While doing
DPF filter replacement service, keep the following in mind:
- The distances covered, the quality of fuel used and the engine operation - all these factors have influence on the pace of wear of the DPF filter
- Alternatively, instead of buying a new filter, you can buy a reconditioned one
- Driving short distances, mainly in the city, significantly reduces the life cycle of the DPF filter
- Driving without the filter is prohibited. A car from which the filter has been removed will not be approved as roadworthy
- Avoid driving with a malfunctioning DPF filter. Otherwise you will run the risk of damaging your engine and producing exhaust gases that do not meet the applicable environmental standards.
