DPF wash out and rebuild

[benough]

That's good news for the rest of us with lower mileage cars with a DPF. Do you do a lot of highway kms?

I live in Sydney and use motorways but not all the time.

My belief is that if you flog them, they last. I got 220,000km out of my first clutch too, so it doesn't mean they wear out either.

Also I seldom drive it out of the power band, so below 1700rpm, as below that you don't get the cleanest burn.

Furthermore I only ever put BP in it.

I can't empirically say these things are guaranteed but they have worked for me so far [emoji4]

OK - so just saw this. DPF clean-out without all the fuss.. The Non-Damaging DIY DPF Home Clean (Diesel Particulate Filter and Catalyst - Ash Blocked / Clogged) - YouTube
DPF Clean (Utrasonic) at Bosch Milperra (Sydney) works really well - I put my GT Sport DPF though them and it was like new on return..

Hey
Thanks for posting this.
Was your DPF fully clogged and the car not driving properly, or you just did preventative maintenance?
