Wynn's 18985 5L Off-Car Diesel Particulate Filter Cleaner Removes Soot & Deposits From DPFs

Product Information

My 2012 1.4 tdci fiesta emissions were twice over manufacturer limit following lots of urban driving. Followed manual advice and ran it on motorway in 4th (2500-2800rpm = 65mph) for 60 miles. After that instantaneous mpg was much better and throttle only needs a light touch. Emissions were corrected as well. Now appreciate that 2nd gear up to 30 (3000rpm) is the best way forward. After many many miles (100k) the ash resulting from the burnt carbon may require physical, off the car cleaning. Btw, no chemical added to your fuel tank can clean a DPF. All these additives are doing is introducing alcohols into your engine which burn at a slightly higher temp than gasoline or diesel would. Alcohols are generally corrosive to your motor, eating a way at seals and many metallic components. Reply

Update ! (2016)We’ve been speaking to some industry experts on this matter and we’d like to offer an updated view.With Lindemann’s Total Care Diesel you can clean your DPF yourself. This product lowers the combustion temperature of soot, making it easier to burn. It also contains a very high level of active cleaning agents. Normally cars automatically cleans a DPF when there is a long drive, but many cars need a little extra help. We explain this and more about DPF cleaning in this blog! Additives from reputable companies will normally do exactly what they say on the tin. They can’t fix mechanical faults, but can solve problems caused by deposits and contamination helping restore performance and efficiency. There are also products to help a tired engine through their final months and even extend their life, or products to get you out of trouble such as stopping leaks. No miracles, just honest technology that works. ‘Worth a try’ is something we often hear from converted sceptics. I would encourage anyone whose car has a DPF to use some form of additive every now and again to keep it in good condition. I’ve taken my dpf out put dpf cleaner in it for 2 days power hosed it out sorted when the cleaner was in the dpf I m put a potato at the ends and moved the chemical around the filter hope this helps Reply
