Honda Civic Diesel Particulate Filter DPF

A diesel particulate filter (DPF) is a core component in your car's exhaust system, designed to trap soot and car particulate emissions. Without it, your vehicle would exceed legal euro limits, impact the environment, and reduce your engine's power. It also protects downstream components like the catalytic converter and lambda sensor from damage.

Common symptoms of a blocked filter include:

Dashboard warning lights (DPF or check engine)

Noticeable power loss

Fuel consumption spikes

Dark smoke from the exhaust pipe

Failed emissions tests

Clogging may also create backpressure issues that affect your EGR valve or turbo system.

You can for a short time, but it's risky. Prolonged driving with a blocked DPF can lead to damage in key parts like the converter, turbocharger, and core components of your engine management system. Get a diagnostic scan or book a visit to your local auto garage.

You can clean a DPF using:

Passive regeneration (high-speed driving)

Active regeneration (automated system triggers)

Chemical removal (garage-based cleaning equipment)

For heavily clogged filters, replacement is often the more reliable long-term step.

Here's a simple breakdown:

Lift your car and locate the filter beneath the chassis

Disconnect wiring to the sensors

Loosen the mounting clamps and remove the old pipe section

Install the new unit using the supplied fitting kit

Reconnect plugs, run diagnostics, and clear fault codes

If you're unsure, a visit to a certified garage or diesel technician is the easy and safe route.

We recommend a sensor check during installation. Many customers add replacements to their basket to save on labor time.

Some at-home kits may offer temporary relief for light blockages, especially when used early. But for severe or repeated clogging, a professional removal and service is more reliable.
