What type of "DPF clean" did they do?
As I get older I think a lot about the hereafter - I go into a room and then wonder what I'm here after.

Re: Risk of clogging
That's a bit vague. I'd want to know exactly what they did.
Did they take the DPF off the car or do something with it still in place? If still in place, what was done?
How quick was the job? How much did they charge? Does the invoice list any parts or materials used for the clean?

Re: Risk of clogging
So if the DPF has been cleaned (and I'm assuming cleaned properly), then whoever did this would need to inform the engine ECU that the DPF has been 'replaced'. Until you do this, the Engine ECU will not know that you have replaced it and keep nagging you. They would do this via a professional level diagnostic tool and notify the system under replacement parts or repair.Ampvan wrote: 04 Nov 2024, 12:18 Hello my Peugeot partner 2012 van keeps saying risk of filter clogging.
