Product Description
Aftermarket Diesel Exhaust Fluid (Def) Suction Filter - DPFs, or Diesel Particulate Filters, are emissions control devices primarily designed to capture particulate matter (PM) or soot from the exhaust gases of diesel engines. They are a vital part of modern diesel vehicles, including trucks, buses, and some cars. The primary aim of a diesel particulate filter is to curtail harmful emissions and enhance air quality. Diesel engines emit PM, comprising tiny particles and harmful pollutants such as carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons, and nitrogen oxides. A vehicle's DPF might be blocked if you notice the following: Decreased Engine Performance: A blocked particulate filter can significantly reduce engine power and acceleration, resulting in a lack of responsiveness or difficulty in reaching higher speeds. Increased Exhaust Smoke: A blocked DPF may lead to darker and thicker exhaust smoke due to the excessive soot buildup. This smoke may have a distinct smell and may be more visible during acceleration or at idle. Warning Lights: Many modern vehicles have onboard diagnostic systems that monitor the DPF's performance. If a blockage is detected, the dashboard may display a warning light, signaling the need for immediate attention. By regularly cleaning your DPF, handling it properly, and using recommended diesel particulate filter cleaner, you can ensure the longevity and performance of your diesel particulate filter, keeping your vehicle running smoothly and efficiently.Cross References
