Mercedes CLK-Class Diesel Particulate Filter DPF

The Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) is a crucial component in the exhaust system of Mercedes CLK-Class diesel models. It functions by filtering and trapping fine particulate matter from the exhaust gases, thereby reducing harmful emissions. The filter works through a heating process that blocks particles emitted while the engine is running, allowing only clean gases to be released into the atmosphere.

DPFs are fitted to several Mercedes CLK-Class diesel variants, including:

• CLK 270 CDi Coupé
• CLK 220 CDi 2.1 (2005-2008) with OM646.966 engine producing 150 hp

This system complies with EURO 4 emission standards and is mounted in a coupled position on relevant models.

The Diesel Particulate Filter for the Mercedes CLK 220 CDi has the following characteristics :

• OE Reference Number: 2034900092
• Weight: 4 kg
• Length: 390 mm
• Emission Standard: EURO 4
• Mounting Position: Coupled

These technical details ensure compatibility and optimal performance for this specific model and engine type.

The price for a Mercedes CLK 220 CDi DPF replacement can range between 179.90€ and 589.90€ including taxes depending on the product quality and supplier. Delivery time generally varies from 1 to 4 days.

Costs may also include additional parts and professional service if needed.

Regular maintenance of the DPF is essential to prevent blockage and ensure proper function. The filter traps soot particles which need to be cleaned, either via automatic regeneration or manual cleaning methods depending on the level of clogging.

• Driving type and frequency of urban trips impact the filter regeneration process
• Cleaning can involve injection of cleaning agents and purging

Always follow manufacturer guidelines and consider professional services for complicated cases.

Two main types of DPF materials are available for Mercedes CLK-Class vehicles :

• Silicate-based particulate filters
• Cordierite-based particulate filters

These materials are selected for their efficiency in filtering soot while providing durability under exhaust temperatures.

When replacing the DPF, it is advisable to also check and potentially replace associated components such as the pressure pipes for the DPF system :

• Front pressure pipe
• Rear pressure pipe

These components ensure accurate monitoring of the filter's condition and are crucial for proper system operation.
