What is forced regeneration of DPF?
A forced regen occurs when soot builds up inside the diesel particulate filter (DPF) to the point that the vehicle is no longer operable. When this happens, a driver has to pull over and initiate a self-cleaning process that can take up to 40 minutes — valuable time that could have been spent on the road.
What happens if Eolys fluid runs out?
If the Eolys runs out then for a short while nothing untoward will happen as the FAP fills up with particulates. The problem will come when regeneration is initiated. This means that in very short order the FAP will become blocked and the engine just won’t work as the exhaust gasses can’t get through properly.
Do DPF cleaner additives work?
Sadly, for the most part, claims that an additive can unblock a dpf are largely exaggerated. In truth, these additives often produce a misrepresentation of what they are actually doing, and in reality, they never come close to unblocking a dpf filter.
