Expert Same-Day DPF Cleaning in Fleet That Quickly Restores Your Vehicle’s Performance

At TJ Services Fleet, we understand the frustration and cost associated with DPF problems. A Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) is essential for modern diesel vehicles, capturing harmful soot to reduce emissions. However, short journeys or component faults can prevent the DPF from self-cleaning (regenerating), leading to a blockage.

Our Hampshire-based garage is equipped with the latest diagnostic and cleaning technology to professionally and safely resolve your DPF issues. We offer a reliable alternative to a full replacement, saving you time, money, and stress.

Signs of a Blocked DPF: Is Your Vehicle Showing These Symptoms?

A blocked DPF can severely impact your vehicle’s health and performance. If you’re experiencing any of the following, it’s crucial to get it checked by a professional immediately.

• DPF Warning Light on Your Dash: The most obvious sign of a problem.
• Loss of Power / “Limp Mode”: The vehicle’s ECU protects the engine by drastically reducing power.
• Poor Fuel Economy: Your engine has to work harder, burning more fuel.
• Difficulty Starting the Engine: A severe blockage can create excessive back-pressure.
• Strong Smell of Diesel: This can be a sign that the DPF regeneration process is failing.
• Automatic Start/Stop System Not Working: The system often deactivates when a DPF fault is present.

Our Advanced DPF Cleaning Solutions

We don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all approach. We start with a full diagnostic check to identify the root cause of the blockage, ensuring we fix the problem, not just the symptom.

• Stage 1: DPF Assessment & Diagnostics We use dealer-level diagnostic tools to read fault codes and analyze live data from DPF sensors. This tells us why the filter was blocked in the first place, be it a faulty sensor, an EGR valve issue, or an incorrect driving style.
• Stage 2: Professional On-Vehicle Cleaning. For most blockages, our advanced 3-stage chemical cleaning process is highly effective. We inject specialist cleaning agents directly into the DPF to break down the hardened soot and ash, which is then flushed out of the exhaust. This is all done without removing the DPF from the vehicle, saving on labour time.
• Stage 3: Off-Vehicle Ultrasonic Cleaning For severely blocked filters, we offer a full off-vehicle deep cleaning service. The DPF is removed and cleaned in an industrial ultrasonic tank, restoring it to over 98% of its original efficiency.
