DPF (Diesel Particulate Filter) Burns
As diesel engines have evolved, and vehicle emissions have been monitored heavily, manufacturers have been employing more and more emissions control devices, to better protect the environment and reduce the unsightly ‘black clouds’ that are renowned with older diesel vehicles.
One of these systems is the Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) which sits in the exhaust system and filters harmful carbon particulates produced in the combustion cycle, preventing these particles from being released into the atmosphere.
When the DPF burn logo is displayed on the dash, the vehicle must not be turned off until the burn cycle is completed. If the burn cycle is interupted by switching the vehicle off, the vehicle may go into into limp mode and will require towing to a mechanic at the cost of the renter
