Audi A6 8F 3.0 TDI – CR DPF off
Diesel Particulate Filter
There is no denying that every car needs maintenance, regardless of the model or brand, whether it is a diesel vehicle or gas. Without regular and proper care, every engine tends to slow down and damage with time. And as we all know, delayed or neglected DPF (Diesel Particulate Filter) repairs are costly and put a lot of mental stress on drivers.
What is a DPF?
A DPF is a device used to remove excess matter or soot from diesel engines through exhaust gases. DPF it’s just like a catalytic converter which is common in petrol cars. It works as a filter to remove diesel particles and harmful toxins from diesel engines, thus reducing emissions from the vehicle. It makes diesel cars more environmentally friendly. One needs to go through this process to remove the 80% of diesel matter/soot from the engines.
If you have a diesel vehicle, removal of widely spread emissions is essential. It is a prevalent problem in these vehicles, and it occurs when DPF becomes old and cannot process to regenerate as it had been doing previously. If you do not remove it on time, the vehicle will go in limp mode until you get it fixed by an expert technician. This problem should not be taken lightly and must be clear on time. It is the best option if you combine DPF removal with EGR (Exhaust Gas Recirculation) removal along with reprogramming of the ECU.
Disadvantages of DPF
One of the significant disadvantages of it is that it reduces fuel economy. Raise the temperature of the exhaust system to burn off the extra material reduce fuel efficiency. It also poses some safety concerns as the temperature of the exhaust system can exceed 1000 degree Fahrenheit during the active regenerating process. It increases the risk of fire. So it must not be done by unprofessional technicians around grasslands and other environmental hazards.
Advantages of DPF
Besides having few disadvantages, DPF offers some advantages. Less fuel consumption is one of the best benefits of DPF removal. Your vehicle will consume less fuel for the same distance as before removal. It will also remove any wear and tear on diesel engines and increase its life.It will remove all the blockages, ensuring that the car runs smoothly without demanding costly repairs.DPF problems can be very frustrating, especially if you are driving on the longer route. To get rid of this problem once and for all, a professional DPF removal is necessary. If it blocks permanently, it will cost you a lot of money. In addition to the psychical removal of the DPF, this ECU solution removes the dashboard lights and warning messages.
