DPF light on and stuck in limp mode? We don't just clean your diesel particulate filter — we find and fix why it blocked, then clean it, so it doesn't come straight back. We come to you, on-site, from $800.

Most workshops do a forced regeneration and send you on your way. Sometimes it works for a while — but if no one found why the DPF blocked, it's only a matter of time before the light comes back. Removing the filter and sending it away has the same problem: it comes back clean, but the cause is still there.
A DPF is designed to last the life of your car and clean itself as you drive. When it blocks, something has changed — and that's what we hunt down.
On-site, no removal. We diagnose the cause, clean the filter, and prove it can regenerate on its own again.

Learn moreA safe engine decarbonise that lowers emissions and soot — proven to reduce particulate output.
Learn moreA genuine DPF replacement runs $1,500–$6,000+ (far more on European cars). A professional clean restores a structurally sound filter for a fraction of that — and keeps your car legal and emissions-compliant.
We never do illegal "DPF deletes" — they can mean big fines, lost registration and a defect notice.

Figures are typical ranges — your quote depends on your vehicle.
We read every fault code — including the ones other shops clear — then find the real cause with a smoke test and live sensor & DPF data.
A two-stage chemical clean with the FlexFuel Carbon X3 — no removal, done on your driveway.
We make sure the car can trigger its own regeneration again. That's how we know it won't just come back.
The DPF clean works, or you don't pay. We diagnose the real cause first. Small fixes we can do on-site are done by quote. If a bigger repair is needed elsewhere first, you sort it and we come back to finish (a $250 call-out applies). Plus one complimentary follow-up if the light returns shortly after.
Usually short trips and city driving stop it getting hot enough to self-clean — but at 6 years / ~100,000 km there's often an underlying fault (intake leak, sensor, coolant/thermostat, auto stop/start). We find and fix that, not just clean.
No. We clean it on the car with the FlexFuel Carbon X3 — no removal needed for cars and 4WDs.
No — removing or disabling the DPF is illegal on Australian roads and can mean large fines, lost registration and a defect. We only do legal, emissions-compliant cleaning.
