Your motor isn't taken away and the filter does not leave it. A fitter comes at your door across Guiting Power, clears the diesel particulate filter still on the vehicle and runs a DPF regeneration. The visit runs typically around 2 hours, the clean begins from £299, and the number is settled by the phone before anyone leaves. If the light is showing and the car is low on power, this page is yours. That is how most owners end up here. ## DPF light on? What comes next The DPF is not always what is at fault, and that goes first. A check happens before the work, because that same panel light has plenty of candidate faults behind it. How the car is driven in the meantime matters too. - Amber light, motor yet driving as normal — a long even run can yet sort it by itself. Costs nothing at all, and worth a try before you ring anything. - Once the vehicle is in limp mode, driving will not reach it. The window has closed. - Diesel smell in the car, or black smoke under the throttle — stop planning long drives and get it checked. ## The vehicle has been telling you already By the time the light arrives, things have usually been slipping for weeks. It is belated news: - dropping away on power, particularly uphill - the revs no longer pull the way they always did - fuel economy getting worse - stop/start silently giving up - the cabin stinking of diesel, or smoke when you accelerate By itself, none of that is conclusive. Next to the light, it is a fair guess the filter is loaded. ## The reason diesel particulate filters clog near Guiting Power Guiting Power is a village, and the driving that comes with one is the poorest type for a DPF. Look at a normal week: Temple Guiting Church of England School and home, Castlett Street at a standstill before nine, a short hop to Co-op Food, a run to Moreton-In-Marsh. None of it there goes on long enough or gets hot enough to see through a regeneration. Soot that should burn away collects instead. Neither is a long way from Guiting Power: under 15 miles to the M5, under 25 miles to Gloucester. Neither is on the way to much most weeks, though, so the drive that would clear a filter hardly ever gets made. ## The stage a DPF regeneration can no longer run The car is looking after itself, which is what limp mode amounts to. The real problem is that a proper drive works by setting off a regeneration, and under limp mode the revs will not climb and power is held down. The standard advice — run it up the motorway — is sound, until it is not. The far side of that point — limp mode — driving will not be enough, and the filter requires cleaning. ## The motor stays in place for on-site DPF cleaning round Guiting Power The filter does not budge. That is the bit most people do not anticipate: the job takes place with the DPF still fitted to the vehicle, on your driveway, in a work car park, any place the motor can sit for a while. First a diagnostic. Real-time ECU data, the soot load as a percent and as a figure, the sensors, the glow plugs, the associated parts — all of it read before a thing is started. A solution after that goes in through the access port on that car, spreading inside the filter to free soot and ash a regeneration by itself will never move. A second pass is sometimes called for on badly blocked filters. Then a regeneration, to drive off what the clean has lifted. That is a monitored drive out of Guiting Power if you are present, or a static regeneration where the vehicle stands, with the running data read once done. Finally the check runs again — the change confirmed, the light put out, anything still outstanding written down. Both reports reach you by email, so the numbers are on record. ## Where a clean is not the fix One thing is what treatment answers — a filter choked with soot and ash. It does nothing for: - the wrong reading from a pressure or temperature sensor - EGR valves that jam open - an AdBlue system failure - a regeneration that hardly ever runs, because of glow plugs or injectors - a turbo passing oil through the filter That is what the first scan is for. When it turns out to be one of those, you are told before any work gets going rather than after you have settled up anything. Lastly, two things. A vehicle with the filter hollowed out fails its MOT, and driving it is illegal, so that is no remedy. What gets searched for as DPF renewal replaces nothing: your existing filter is cleaned in place and goes back into service. ## Prices for DPF cleaning around Guiting Power A clean begins from £299, with the call-out charge on top of that for every visit — it takes in the call-out, the booking, the checks and the advice. Naming a flat rate would not be honest. We agree it over phone, once the vehicle and its likely needs are clear. What you own and where you are both change it: Guiting Power itself, over at Kineton, or otherwise out in the GL postcode area. You are not billed for cleaning that the check says will not work. Because the visit, the diagnostic and the advice have happened, the call-out charge even so applies. The job carries a 30-day warranty covering aftercare, including an engineer coming back out to Guiting Power if the light returns inside that period. ## Where we travel near Guiting Power, and what we clean A single call-out service spans cars, panel vans and light commercials, heavy goods vehicles, plant machinery and agricultural machinery, and on every one the filter is treated where it sits rather than carried anywhere. Technicians are along Castlett Street most weeks, so Guiting Power is rarely a special trip, and the same run takes in Kineton, Hawling and the spots out past Naunton. Even further out across Gloucestershire is still worth a call — coverage runs UK-wide, and it is the calendar rather than the distance that settles between this day and the next. ## The patch around Guiting Power Guiting Power is a small village in Gloucestershire, situated on the banks of a river at an elevation of 185 metres.

Sometimes, if you spot it early and the motor has not dropped into limp mode. A sustained run at motorway speed is what it needs — not ten minutes flat to Co-op Food and back. The visit takes how long? Reckon on typically around 2 hours, with a second clean adding to that where the filter is severely clogged. Around Guiting Power, what does it cost? Cleaning opens from £299, and the call-out charge on top covers the visit, the check and the advice. The vehicle and your address both change the price, so we settle it on the phone. Is it needed for me to be around? A spot for the vehicle to stand, for a couple of hours, is all that is needed. Not you. If you would sooner come along, the regeneration can be carried out as a monitored drive instead. Can someone travel to Guiting Power soon? Depending on the diary, often same-day or next-day is usual. Ring 0303 330 1830 and we will say to you what is open across the GL area. Will the filter be removed? Done where it stands, on this service, so no. That work — a filter off, a filter back on — is not a job we do. The light reappears — then what? An engineer comes back out to Guiting Power — the 30-day warranty takes in aftercare. ## Arrange DPF cleaning across Guiting Power Talk us round what the vehicle is doing on 0303 330 1830, whether that is smoke, limp mode or the light.
