- The DPF itself and its correct operation is not part of the test, provided emissions are within the permitted range, and a vehicle with a faulty DPF may still pass an MOT.
- All testing stations that identified removal or disabled DPF’s should be classed as a vehicle failure as advised by VOSA.
- When a DPF system becomes too full of soot particles, it will not regenerate successfully and require replacing.
- In regular use with normal automatic regeneration, this will still occur. However, if a DPF becomes unable to regenerate either automatically or manually, again this requires a full replacement.
- Replacement of the DPF system requires the removal of the DPF section from the exhaust system and replacement with a new unit. Installation of reclaimed DPF systems unless these have been certified as soot free before installation is NOT RECOMMENDED.
- This replacement can cost up to £2000 as a non-functioning DPF, or a removed DPF is an M.O.T Failure.
Why does the DPF need regeneration/cleaning?
The DPF filter is intended to trap carbon particles, filtering the exhaust gases as they pass through. Like any filter, this must be regenerated (cleaned) to restore it to full operation. Under normal circumstances, the regeneration process is performed by itself when the emissions management system detects the DPF requires regeneration. However, Diesel vehicles used only for short journeys do not provide the system sufficient opportunity to regenerate the DPF, resulting in a fault developing. This fault is indicated by the DPF/ engine management fault indicator illuminating and a fault message on vehicles equipped with display centres.
