It appears that this sounded like a bit too much hard work. Kinda like Jesus on a treadmill, in a stainless steel casket, minus the cross and the miracle. Many people are locked into an epically unpleasant ‘Groundhog Day’ experience where their DPF dies and is only intermittently resurrected, before dying again, and being resurrected. So that’s good news.Įxcept - it often doesn’t work out that way. To quote the marketing euphemistic bullshit, DPFs are maintenance free and designed to last the life of the vehicle. ![]() In theory a DPF needs no maintenance - it’s just a steel chamber up near the engine full of Cordierite or silicon carbide designed to trap microscopic soot, and then periodically the computer turns the chamber into a furnace by injecting extra fuel, thus burning the particles into a less harmful state. Straight to the Phantom Zone - where they cannot give you lung cancer. They take out the dangerously small carbon nanoparticles that diesel engines are so good at pumping out the exhaust port - trap them, and burn them into a parallel dimension through a wormhole in space-time. DPFs - diesel particle filters - are a great concept.
