Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

  • Living in the country, I'm more worried about blow-by contamination of the EGR valve than DPF contamination........I'm not aware of any additive that will ameliorate that.

        Yeah, only if I can get someone with experience, to do it ....plus it's still only half way though warranty period.
        Maybe in 18 months it won't be such an 'exotic' mod......there are no fitters apparently.

        • Just been looking at the Penrite web site - Technical Bulletin section (NEW) products
          Enviro+ DPF Cleaner is now available claiming benefits for injectors, EGR and (obviously) DPF.
          No mention of HPFP 'lubricity' improvement though.
          in fact they don't seem to list anything for that particular component.

            Plenty more out there too.
            Wurth DPF cleaner is in a current promotion, but price not listed.

            How do these products manage to clean out ash????

              You would have to assume that they don't and only work on the carbon, otherwise the DPF would never need replacing because it's blocked with ash.
              The ash might be reduced by a cleaner combustion process that shows 50% lower emissions in annual exhaust testing?
