The fitter turns up at your address in Comhampton and sets up. The diesel particulate filter is treated fitted to the motor, a DPF regeneration follows, and you keep the filter you arrived with. The visit lasts typically around 2 hours, the clean begins from £299, and the number is agreed by the phone before anyone travels. Most people find us with the light showing, and the motor low on power. That is the situation this page is meant for. ## The DPF light is on. What now? It may not be the DPF at all. That is the opening thing. That light can arise from several faults, not only one, so the visit starts with a diagnostic and not with treatment. The use you manage in the meantime tells. That is the other thing. - A long constant run may still be enough, provided the light is amber and the motor goes as normal. Costs nothing at all, so have a go at that before calling. - A drive will not shift it now — limp mode means that window has now shut. - A diesel smell in the car, or black smoke under acceleration, is the stage to stop booking long drives and book it in. ## What the motor has been warning you Last news, the light. The symptoms generally mount for weeks before it shows: - tailing off on power, especially uphill - the revs no longer climb the way they always did - worse fuel consumption - a stop/start that has meekly given up - smoke under the throttle, or a diesel smell in the car None of that is evidence by itself. Next to the light, it is a fair bet the filter is blocked. ## The cause diesel particulate filters clog around Comhampton Being a rural hamlet, Comhampton produces exactly the use a DPF handles least well. A regeneration needs the time and heat, and sees not much: not on the school run to Sytchampton Endowed Primary School, not on Comhampton Lane at half eight, not on five minutes to Tesco, and not on the dash to Hartlebury. Instead of burning away, the unburnt soot builds up. Save when you have a standing reason to get out to the M5, under 5 miles from Comhampton, or across to Worcester under 10 miles away, whole weeks slip past without a sustained stint. Geography is unhelpful. ## The moment a DPF regeneration can no longer happen What limp mode amounts to is the motor protecting itself. A long drive works by starting a regeneration, and that is precisely what limp mode rules out: power limited, revs pinned, no regeneration possible. So the common advice to take it up the motorway is good advice, until it is not. In limp mode you are beyond that point: cleaning is what will work, not more miles. ## The motor stays where it is for mobile DPF cleaning round Comhampton Most drivers do not see coming this part: the filter stays put. The job takes place with the DPF yet bolted to the vehicle — on your drive, in a work car park, anywhere the vehicle can stand for a couple of hours. First a scan. Live ECU data, the soot load as a percent and as a figure, the sensors, the glow plugs, the associated components — all of it logged before a thing is cleaned. A cleaning fluid after that is injected through the entry point on that motor, expanding inside the filter to lift soot and ash a regeneration on its own will never move. Sometimes a filter is loaded enough to take doing twice. A regeneration is next, clearing what the clean has lifted. Stay with the car and it turns into a monitored drive out of Comhampton. Park it and the regeneration is done statically, with real-time data verified once it is done. A second check verifies the change, resets the warning light and logs anything still open. Both reports are emailed over, so you keep the before and after figures on record. ## The faults a DPF clean cannot answer A filter blocked with soot and ash is the one thing treatment fixes. It will not reach: - the wrong signal from a temperature or pressure sensor - an EGR valve held open - an AdBlue system fault - worn glow plugs or injectors, so no regeneration ever starts - a turbo putting oil through the filter The first check is there for precisely that. If it is found to be one of those, you are told before any work starts rather than after you have settled up anything. Hollowing the filter out is not a fix: without a working DPF a vehicle will fail its MOT, and driving it is illegal. DPF renewal is the wording people search for, though nothing is replaced — your original filter is cleared in place and returned into use. Two more worth bearing in mind. ## DPF cleaning charges around Comhampton A call-out charge holds whatever happens, and takes in the visit, the booking fee, the check and the advice given. The clean itself starts from £299. No flat rate would be honest, so the price is agreed on the phone once we have the vehicle and what the filter is going to need. Two things change it: what you run, and where you are — Comhampton itself, over at Dunhampton, or otherwise out across the DY postcode area. Treatment that will not do it is not a clean you pay for, and the diagnostic is what says so. What still holds is the call-out charge, since the visit took place, the scan was carried out and the advice was offered. Aftercare is covered by a 30-day warranty: should the light return within it, an engineer returns to Comhampton. ## Where we travel near Comhampton, and what we clean Whatever it is — car, van, light commercial, lorry, plant, construction machinery, agricultural vehicle — the same call-out service holds, and the filter never departs it. Week in week out there is by then someone on Comhampton Lane, so Comhampton hardly ever means a special trip, and Dunhampton, Lineholt and the spots past Acton come with it. Farther out across Worcestershire is even so worth ringing about — coverage is UK-wide, and it is the diary rather than the distance that picks between today and tomorrow. ## About Comhampton Comhampton is a small hamlet in Worcestershire, situated inland at an elevation of 77 metres, approximately 7.4 miles from Worcester.

Sometimes, if you catch it early and the vehicle has not dropped into limp mode. Five minutes to Tesco and back will not be enough; motorway speed, sustained for some time, will. How long does the visit run? Expect typically around 2 hours — severely clogged filters sometimes take a second pass, which extends it. How much does it run to around Comhampton? Cleaning begins from £299, and the call-out charge on top takes in the visit, the check and the advice. The vehicle and your address both move the number, so we settle it on the phone. Must I be there in person? The vehicle needs a space for two hours or so. You do not need to be in it. If you would prefer to come along, the regeneration can be run as a watched drive instead. How soon can someone come to Comhampton? You are offered often same-day or next-day, though it depends what is now in the schedule. Phone 0303 330 1830 what is available across the DY area. The filter — does it come off the motor? On the on-site service, no: the filter is treated in place. Getting a filter off or putting one back on count as anything work we do whichever way. And if the light reappears? Aftercare falls inside the 30-day warranty, and that includes an engineer returning to Comhampton. ## Have a DPF clean booked around Comhampton Whatever it is doing — light, limp mode, smoke — tell us so when you call 0303 330 1830.
