JLM Diesel DPF Spray

Product Information

Have you had a bad experience with a DPF? Did a DPF cleaning additive work for you? If so we’d like to hear from you – please leave details of your experience in the comments below. Redex DPF Cleaner works to clear soot from your car’s particulate filter, reducing the likelihood of a fault and switching off the warning light. Easy and convenient to use, it means you don’t have to take your car for a trip on the motorway to burn off soot from inside the DPF.

A DPF system works sitting in between the vehicle engine and exhaust system. It’s a small to medium sized filter which catches exhaust soot and then stores it in the filter instead of it being pumped out of the exhaust and into the atmosphere. Arguably the most common and definitely the easiest method of DPF cleaning, perfect for those without mechanical experience or the right tools and space. Pour-in additives are simply added into a nearly full fuel tank and mixed with the diesel before making their way into the engine. Here the mixture will combust and begin to clear the DPF filter in the method explained above. Vehicles that are used to make short journeys or are never or hardly ever driven on motorways do not become warm enough, which means that they regenerate (clean) the particulate filter poorly, or not at all in many cases. Diesel DPF Spray offers a solution for the engine symptoms of loss of power or increasing fuel consumption that is caused primarily by driving short distances. JLM Diesel DPF Spray restores the particulate filter’s full capacity and ensures that exhaust gases can once again be expelled by the exhaust without any resistance. Spray JLM Diesel DPF Spray into the particulate filter prior to forced regeneration (by means of a test drive or OBD) to clean the filter and help the vehicle pass its tests. There are three main product types to consider, when searching for a DPF cleaning solution you can implement at home. Each gives its own benefits and downfalls, but the choice will ultimately be based on the time and skills of the vehicle owner/ mechanic. DPF Cleaning AdditiveAnother contributing factor to DPF problems is poor quality diesel fuel. The more expensive, premium fuels contain additional additives which help reduce the amount of soot build up. Why Should I Use A DPF Cleaner? It’s extremely easy to use with clear and easy to follow instructions. It features a strong power jet spray to support cleaning action which works great and provides deep cleaning ability. Owing to it’s formula, Wynn’s Diesel EGR Extreme Cleaner is able to dissolve gum, lacquer, tar, carbon and deposits. Spray cleaners are administered directly into the filter via an oxygen or pressure sensor bung in the exhaust. Simply remove the existing sensor and attach the provided tube, spray into the exhaust and replace the removed sensor. It does require a couple of basic tools, possibly a way to get underneath the vehicle and a little extra time but should yield very impressive results.

Cleaning of mechanical parts may sound dull and unimportant; diesel cars internals will always be dirty right? Wrong, internal mechanical components remaining in a clean and efficient working state is vitally important, it could save you from breakdowns and may just extinguish a dashboard light or two. Modern diesel vehicles require regular journeys and not just that, they require journeys which allow the engine to get up to optimum temperature which then allows all of the emissions systems to work at their best. Unfortunately, short, infrequent journeys are a huge problem for modern diesels which are equipped with DPF filters as they don’t allow the DPF and other emissions systems to work properly. The Coronavirus pandemic has resulted in most people working from home which has then culminated in their vehicles not being used anywhere near as much. When drivers are using their cars, they are generally being used for a weekly trip to the shops, school run etc. Our first offering in the additive sector comes from Netherlands-based additive firm, JLM lubricants. Though they are relative newbies in the sector (established in 2010), the firm are making waves in the additive market thanks to their scientifically engineered and rigorously tested formulas. The company prides itself on creating professional level products for the regular user, that can outperform the products from rival brands. If the DPF filter reaches a certain percentage full level, your car will give you a warning light which will look something similar to the image below (The image will vary between car manufacturer but will generally look very similar)Diesel particulate filters are an emissions regulating device, fitted to most diesel cars for the past two decades. The filter unit is found within the cars exhaust system and is designed to capture harmful emissions expelled from the engine. The aim of the filter is to minimise toxic emissions created by diesel engines.

In an effort to cover all bases when it comes to DPF cleaning, JLM also offer a spray solution, alongside their pour-in additive. Like the additive solution, the spray DPF cleaner offers professional level results for all customers, with a highly tested and extensively researched product. Application To clean use DPF Pressurized Tank Air Gun (part no. 7946) together with DPF Probe with 5 Interchangeable Tips (part no. 7945). When cleaning large diameter units also use DPF Spray Probe Long (part no. 20630). Cleaning is done by removing a temperature or other sensor from the DPF unit. Take the correct protective measures before using JLM cleaning products. Wear gloves and safety goggles throughout the entire cleaning process.
