Dpf blocked forced regeneration by dealer . Is there any additive that would help?

We have had the RCZ 7 years, longest we’ve ever kept a car. The only thing my OH has ever put in that is shopping. I suspect it will go a very similar way with the RRE 🤔

Posted this on another topic . Might be useful

I have a neighbour who specialises in dpf . He says showed me what’s in them and how they get clogged . He also said they not covered by Warrenty normally and they fail more with the newer ad blue also . He’s shown me 19 plate cars with failed dpf . There’s a number of methods to fix . Eg remove and clean . Clean in car. What seems most effective is removing it all together and reprograms the ecu. PM me if you live in south London area I can pass his details on . I would double check they will cover under warranty .

This one does the clean of blocked . But I’m sceptical after seeing the inside of one if this will work. If it’s just blocked and the honeycomb is not fused together or damaged it should work .


I have started using the jml preventative additive to tank every so often .

remove the dpf and buy no heat oven cleaner foam spray. and spray both ends of the dpf and keep spraying when foams goes down and keep spraying then pressure wash from the exit end out the front end, air dry and reconnect the dpf. make sure up connect the sensor hose in the correct pipe. high pressure to front of dpf,
