In the modern world, the automotive industry is not only about horsepower, torque, or 0 to 60 times. A significant part of it revolves around minimizing the environmental impact of vehicles, specifically those powered by diesel engines. This is where Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) and Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) systems come into play, proving essential in the fight against air pollution and playing critical roles in the performance and longevity of your vehicle.

The **Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF)** is a device designed to remove diesel particulate matter or soot from the exhaust gas of a diesel engine. This filter plays a crucial role in reducing emissions, capturing upwards of 85% of the soot that would otherwise be released into the atmosphere. Over time, however, the DPF can become clogged with particulate matter, leading to decreased performance, increased fuel consumption, and, if not addressed, potentially significant engine damage

On the other hand, the **Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) system** works by recirculating a portion of an engine's exhaust gas back to the engine cylinders. This dilutes the oxygen in the incoming air stream and reduces the engine's peak combustion temperature, significantly reducing the amount of nitrogen oxide (NOx) produced. Like the DPF, the EGR system also requires maintenance to prevent blockages and ensure optimal functionality and engine health.

At Lion Automotive, we understand the critical roles these systems play in both your vehicle's performance and its environmental footprint. That's why we offer specialized cleaning services for both DPF and EGR systems, tailored to restore and maintain their efficiency and ensure your vehicle runs as smoothly and cleanly as possible.

All Diesel Vehicles need to be regularly maintained and inspected for soot build up in the exhaust system.

The Diesel Particulate Filter, otherwise known as a DPF, is an integrated component of the emissions and electrical systems of diesel vehicles. It functions as a part of the exhaust system to keep harmful particulates, like soot, out of the atmosphere.

When you are driving a diesel vehicle and the DPF light appears on your dashboard, don't put it off; instead, schedule an appointment with Lion Automotive for your vehicle to be checked out by a certified expert who can determine the problem and provide the necessary repairs.

In order to maintain efficiency, diesel engines require large amounts of air intake. Over the course of time, the interior walls of the induction system become lined with carbon deposits, limiting the flow of air and having a negative effect on the engine's performance. Ignoring this accumulation of carbon will inevitably result in reduced performance and efficiency.
