Diesel Particulate
Filter Cleaning
We now provide Diesel Particulate Filter cleaning service. Cleaning your DPF is vital to extending the life of your filter as well as maintaining engine power and improved fuel effeciency. The filter must be cleaned regularly and carefully to avoid damage to the filter. Let C, G, & J Inc service your DPF as a part of your regular vehicle maintenance.
Cleaning your DPF should be done when suggested by the manufacturer; otherwise, the filter will go into “regeneration” too frequently causing you to lose miles per gallon or power. Filter regeneration is the process by which the filter removes diesel particulate matter from the exhaust gas and burns off the matter. This process occurs at highway speeds, above 40 MPH. Your filter will become saturated during normal use causing it to regenerate too often.
Also, if your vehicle is consistently used at low speeds, less than 40 MPH, your DPF may not regenerate properly. This can cause the filter to become saturated faster, which will damage it over time.
