Lack of power due to excessively blocked Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF), unable to carry out DPF
regeneration.
The fault was cured by removing the DPF to manually clean
using Forté DPF Off-Car Cleaner as per instructions, carrying out an extended
Forté Advanced Formula Motor Flush and adding Forté Diesel Specialist Injector Cleaner and Forté DPF Cleaner and Regenerator into the fuel tank. The
vehicle was taken on an extended road test with the vehicle power and
performance restored.
Thanks to Dave at C T Garages in Bedminster, Bristol.
Forté's Technical Helpline receives over 300 calls per month. This blog shares solutions for garage workshops on common driveability concerns that can be quickly and effectively treated. The vast majority of those identified are caused by fuel and oil borne contamination formed by natural degradation or via the combustion process. This is a fact of life for internal combustion engines where fossil fuels and oils are used.
