What Causes DPF Blockages?

Diesel particulate filters (DPFs) are crucial for reducing emissions and maintaining the performance of diesel engines, but they can encounter several issues that hinder their effectiveness. Recognising the common problems can help in timely interventions, ensuring the DPF operates efficiently and avoids costly repairs. Here are five potential causes:


  1. Short Frequent Trips: Frequent short trips prevent the DPF from reaching the high temperatures required for the automatic regeneration process, leading to soot accumulation.
  2. Incorrect Oil Type: Using engine oil that is not DPF-compatible can lead to increased ash deposits within the filter, which are not burned off during regeneration and can cause blockages.
  3. Faulty Sensors: Sensors that monitor exhaust gases and temperatures can malfunction, misleading the engine's computer system and disrupting the DPF's regeneration cycles.
  4. Engine Issues: Problems such as faulty injectors or turbo failures can lead to incomplete combustion, resulting in excessive soot production that the DPF cannot manage.
  5. Poor Maintenance: Neglecting engine maintenance can lead to the DPF becoming clogged with soot and ash faster than usual, reducing its efficiency and lifespan.


To ensure your DPF remains effective and free from blockages, regular checks and maintenance are essential. Contact us for professional DPF assessment and cleaning services.

Frequently Asked Questions

Ask a Question
  • What is a DPF?

    Diesel particulate filters (DPF) are devices that make up part of the exhaust system of diesel vehicles. They physically capture diesel particulates to prevent their release into the atmosphere.

  • How do you clean a DPF?

    DPF cleaning necessitates heating the filter, utilising compressed air combined with a vacuum system to remove the ash and bagging it in an airtight container. Filter cleaning processes approved by the DPF manufacturer must be used. Incorrect cleaning methods can destroy the filter and/or expose staff to harmful trash.

  • How do I know when my DPF needs cleaning?

    Signs your DPF needs cleaning include reduced engine performance, increased fuel consumption, frequent regeneration cycles and the illumination of the DPF warning light on your dashboard. Regular maintenance and periodic professional checks can also help prevent buildup and identify the need for cleaning.
