DPFs are mandatory and the purpose is to remove moisture, improve emission figures and remove water from diesel. Ironically, the DPFs become clogged over time and negate the very purpose of their installation. The elements inside accumulate dirt and increase soot emissions, reduce engine life and lower performance. When a DPF is clogged the modern engine goes into regen mode and consumes more diesel, resulting in higher fuel consumption. It is not surprising that people are seeking DPF delete or ways to program increase in pressure that entails quite a bit of reprogramming as well as installation of fuel system. It is far easier and economic to go in for DPF service kits, leaving the original DPF container unit intact.
With DPF service kit, the DPF unit becomes fully serviceable again and there is no need to install a new, expensive one. The service kit also comes in handy when the core is too clogged or inaccessible to the recommended method of cleaning. DPF filters are usually baked at high temperatures and then blast cleansed. In some cases the core may be so clogged that filter cleaning may not be practical in which case the DPF service kits is a better and lower cost alternative.
Such DPF kits work fine on diesel pick-ups, vans, medium duty trucks of most brands such as GMC, Ford and Dodge allowing easy mods at low cost and in the shortest time. There is an immediate improvement in fuel efficiency as well as power output of the engine and also the noise levels. Your engine lasts longer and downtime as well as maintenance costs come down with regular attention to the DPF and DOC sections.
If you have reached a point where the inner core of the DPF is unserviceable and you must opt for a DPF kit, then it also is likely that the DOC also needs to be looked into and replaced and serviced or changed if you want all round improvement. These are all part of a chain in engine performance and life and you can get the DPF kits as well as DOC units and air filter cleaning all from one, reliable source.
