Honda CR-V Diesel Particulate Filter DPF

The diesel particulate filter (DPF) in your CR-V captures soot particles created during combustion. This filtration process is essential for reducing emissions from diesel engines and keeping your vehicle compliant with modern environmental regulations.

Common symptoms of a blocked filter include reduced power, warning lights on the dashboard, poor fuel consumption, and the vehicle entering limp mode. If these signs appear, it's time to inspect the DPF or consult a professional.

There are a few methods to clean a soot-filled filter:

Regeneration through steady motorway driving

Active regeneration triggered by the ECU

Diesel fuel additives to support the cleaning cycle

Forced regeneration performed at a service center

If those fail, DPF replacement may be necessary.

Regeneration is the process of burning off accumulated soot inside the filter. It can occur passively (during long-distance driving), actively (when controlled by the vehicle's system), or through forced methods in a workshop. Routine regeneration is essential for keeping the filter functional and avoiding build-up.

Common reasons include incomplete regeneration, a faulty exhaust sensor, blocked pipes, or issues with the EGR system. Typical error codes like P2002 or P2463 can usually be diagnosed with an OBD scanner. Addressing the root cause early prevents more serious damage.

If you're technically confident, you can check error codes, clean or replace sensors, and use supplementary additives or tools for regeneration. However, for more advanced problems, we recommend professional servicing.

Main dealer replacements can cost between £2,500-£3,500. At Krosfou, our premium DPFs start at just £295. Each product is type-approved, meets Euro emission standards, and includes a full mounting kit. We also offer fast shipping across the UK.

Not always. If your filter is simply clogged but undamaged, professional cleaning or regeneration may restore it. However, cracks in the housing, repeated sensor failures, or unresolved fault codes typically require full replacement.

Each DPF product includes:

A certified diesel particulate filter

A mounting kit with gaskets and bolts

Clear instructions for fitting

Optional sensor for selected models

Our filter fitting kits are designed to simplify installation and reduce downtime.

Use our online shop to search by engine type, model year, or registration number. You can also filter by emission standard, weight, and material. Add your chosen product to the cart and complete payment securely.

Most diesel Honda CR-Vs from 2005 onwards include a DPF, especially:

Mk2: 2.2 i-CTDi (Euro 4)

Mk3: 2.2 CDTi and i-DTEC

Mk4: 1.6 and 2.2 i-DTEC

Some Civic and Accord diesel models also use similar filters. Contact us if you need help confirming compatibility.

Yes, if you're comfortable with auto repairs. Our filters come ready to fit by hand using common tools. If you'd rather leave it to professionals, your local garage will have no trouble installing one of our kits.

Check your vehicle's engine variant, Euro emission standard, and the weight or dimensions of your current filter. Our website lists compatible options by vehicle type and includes detailed specs and material information.

No. A DPF handles solid soot particles, while a catalytic converter breaks down harmful gases. Some modern systems combine both functions. Be sure to verify if your vehicle uses a combined unit or separate components.

Yes. Short-distance, stop-start traffic prevents the exhaust from reaching the temperatures needed for regeneration. This can lead to filter blockages. Regular long drives help prevent buildup and extend your filter's lifespan.
