EML on and fault code stored for a DPF fault, unable to carry out DPF regeneration. DPF checked on
diagnostic machine showing filter blockage 58%.
The fault was cured by removing the DPF and manually
cleaning with 2 x Forté DPF Off-Car Cleaner as per instructions, carrying out an extended Forté Advanced FormulaMotor Flush adding Forté Diesel Specialist Injector Cleaner and Forté DPF Cleaner & Regenerator into the fuel tank.
After cleaning the DPF was regenerated and the filter reading was rechecked showed the filter blockage at 4%.

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.
