DPF cleaning in Scotland.

Unread post by bigblackfalco »

Apologies if there is a separate section for listing this:

I've just had my DPF professionally cleaned (off car) by a small friendly company in Aberdeenshire.
All in cost was less than £150
https://gtresto.com

This was the second genuine DPF my car has had fitted (stamped date code was 2012).
TBH it wasn't actually all that dirty, but as I had to remove and change the gearstick assembly, it made sense to get the DPF cleaned at the same time.

The DPF was flushed in both directions (a special adapter was fabricated to fit on the larger DPF opening at no extra cost).
The engine on my 2008 C5 X7 is the 138hp DW10TED.
The back pressure is now 3mb at idle.

Hope this info helps someone out.

Bailey.

Thanks for that Bailey, I'm sure it will prove useful as time goes by :)
