EGR & DPF CLEANING & REPAIR
EGR & DPF CLEANING & REPAIR
Diesel vehicles commonly encounter issues with their exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) and diesel particulate filter (DPF) systems, which are responsible for reducing carbon emissions. When these systems are not functioning optimally, they can add undue strain on your engine.
The DPF works by capturing soot from the exhaust in its honeycomb-shaped pipe, storing it, and burning it off to further minimize carbon emissions. Like the EGR, it plays a critical role in maintaining the smooth operation of your truck.
To ensure these systems function correctly, they must be serviced on a regular basis. Neglecting their maintenance can lead to a range of issues.

DPF CLEANING & MAINTENANCE
The function of the diesel particulate filter (DPF) is to capture particulate matter like soot and ash from the exhaust. To prevent any issues, it’s recommended to have your DPF system cleaned every 200,000 miles.
Failing to address these maintenance requirements can lead to engine malfunctions, which are signaled by the appearance of the yellow REGEN light on your dashboard. It’s important to act promptly if this warning light appears.
EGR & DPF CLEANING & REPAIR
EGR MAINTENANCE
There are two primary ways that EGR coolers can fail: becoming clogged with soot, which limits the flow of gases through the system, and developing fractures due to thermal cycling and constant pressure.
To prevent further complications in your engine, it is crucial to have your EGR system inspected for any malfunctions. Additionally, it’s important to bring your vehicle to a professional for EGR cleaning and potential replacement in a timely manner.
At our company, we understand that as diesel truck owners, you desire increased horsepower and better performance. However, hauling heavy loads can have a detrimental effect on your vehicle. That’s why we offer EDR and DPF cleaning and repair services to not only enhance your truck’s fuel mileage and lifespan but also keep the engine clean while delivering more power and torque.
