The element of the car most susceptible to dirt is the exhaust system, in which both the DPF filter and the catalytic converter are placed. To properly care for them, visit our service in Krakow today. Our mechanics will help you take care of your vehicle so that you can feel safe in it.
DPF filter and catalytic converter
The DPF (diesel particulate filter) is an automotive device placed in the exhaust system behind the oxidation catalyst. In the vehicle, it is responsible for cleaning exhaust gases from solid particles. Many people confuse the term DPF filter with a catalyst. No wonder - both devices are responsible for reducing harmful compounds in exhaust gases.
Choosing the right filter
Each DPF filter is different and is tailored to a specific car model. If you do not know which one will be suitable for your vehicle, use the help of our experienced mechanics. In your presence, they will perform a thorough inspection of the vehicle, informing you about the condition of the exhaust system parts and its cleaning. After taking into account the steps of the service process, you will know when your vehicle will be picked up. We will do it as soon as possible!
Why is regular cleaning so important?
The more kilometers driven, the dirtier the DPF filter will be - the particles accumulated in it will gradually lead to clogging. The same is true of the catalytic converter, which can fail unexpectedly. Our mechanics will restore your vehicle to its proper condition - no matter how much work it takes. The vehicle regeneration process in our service is carried out using modern equipment that allows for a quick and effective service.
Cleaning or complete replacement?
Thanks to high qualifications, we are able to assess whether the old DPF filter will still be usable. Of course, there are situations when the device must be replaced with a new one - this is necessary in the event of mechanical damage. This allows you to restore the complete factory state.
Customers are often convinced that if the exhaust system components are heavily contaminated, the only solution will be to remove them and completely replace them. That is why they are surprised when during the initial inspection our mechanics often suggest only a thorough cleaning. Thanks to this, the costs associated with the service will be much lower, which will also reduce the price of the service. When visiting our service, you will not have to worry about the costs, thus obtaining a professional repair service.
We will not only clean the exhaust system in your vehicle, but also provide the necessary advice. Regular cleaning at our mechanics will keep your car in good condition, which will help avoid future faults. Make an appointment today!
