💡 Facing a blocked DPF? Don’t rush into an expensive replacement

If your diesel vehicle is showing signs of a blocked Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF), you might be dreading a costly replacement. Many garages charge £1,000 to £2,000 or more to fit a new filter — especially for vans, 4x4s, and older diesel cars.

But here’s the good news: most DPFs don’t need replacing — they need cleaning.

At DPF King, we help drivers across Clydebank, Kilmarnock, Paisley, Glasgow and Ayrshire save thousands with our mobile DPF cleaning services.

🔧 Why DPF replacement is usually avoidable

  • ✔️ A blocked DPF is usually caused by short journeys, clogged soot, or failed regenerations.

  • ✔️ Our advanced cleaning process restores your existing DPF back to 95%+ efficiency.

  • ✔️ Full diagnostics and a 14-day warranty.

💷 Finance options: spread the cost, not your stress

🏦 1. Apply for a business loan

If your vehicle is used for work, a short-term business loan can help cover essential maintenance. These loans often come with low interest, fast approval, and repayment terms that suit your cash flow.

💳 2. Use a 0% credit card

If eligible, spread the cost over 3–12 months without paying interest. This is ideal for smaller repairs like DPF cleaning.

🔄 3. Ask about garage payment plans

Some garages now offer pay‑monthly plans. While DPF King doesn’t offer finance directly, we’re happy to recommend trusted providers who do.
