Product Information

Full details

This guide provides comprehensive instructions for using the Wynns Diesel Particulate Filter Cleaner (5L), a product designed for manual cleaning of heavily blocked Diesel Particulate Filters (DPFs) in cars. It's ideal for those whose DPFs are blocked beyond the point of standard regeneration. A key benefit is its ability to restore DPF performance when other methods fail. A caveat is that it requires the DPF to be removed from the vehicle and involves a soak time.
