DPF-Fixer UK: mobile diesel particulate filter cleaning

DPF-Fixer UK is a British company specialising in the cleaning and regeneration of diesel particulate filters (DPF) and catalytic converters. Its service is mobile: technicians travel to the customer's home or workplace in equipped vans to carry out the work on site, without the need to take the vehicle to a workshop. The company states it has more than 2,900 reviews on Google and Trustpilot, with an average rating of 4.5 stars.

Services for cars, commercial vehicles and machinery

The company serves cars, light commercial vehicles (LCVs), heavy goods vehicles (HGVs) and construction or plant machinery, such as forklifts and tractors. In addition to DPF cleaning, it also cleans catalytic converters and particulate filters for petrol engines. It also offers fleet services and commercial contracts, as well as preventive maintenance.

Cleaning and regeneration procedure

The service includes a preliminary inspection with engine diagnostics and live data checks, a deep clean of the filter with specialised fluids and equipment, and subsequent regeneration. When the customer is present, a diagnostic-monitored road test is carried out. The process concludes with a diagnostic verification and a detailed report. The company states that the work is usually completed in approximately two hours and that the engine management system is reset to clear the warning light. The service is backed by a 30-day warranty.

An alternative to filter replacement

DPF-Fixer UK presents itself as a cost-effective alternative to DPF replacement, which is often expensive and requires several days of vehicle immobilisation. The company maintains that cleaning restores flow and engine performance, reduces consumption and avoids the need to remove the part. It also warns that removing the DPF is illegal, causes automatic MOT failure and may invalidate the vehicle's insurance. According to its experience, forced regeneration offered by some workshops has limited usefulness if the filter is already blocked.

Off-car option and online shop

In addition to the mobile service, the company offers an off-car cleaning option at its factory, where the filter is sent away and returned clean within 48 hours. It also has an online shop for related products.

Coverage and brands serviced

The mobile service is available nationwide, with the possibility of same-day or next-day appointments. The company states that it services vehicles from all major brands, including Ford, Audi, Mercedes, BMW, Vauxhall, Volkswagen, Honda, Peugeot and Nissan, although not exclusively.
