What About DPF Removal?
Among our array of services, we provide DPF filter removal in Houston, TX, a crucial solution for diesel vehicle owners looking to enhance performance. It's important to note that DPF (Diesel Particulate Filter) removal should always go hand in hand with engine software adjustments. This is due to the DPF's integral role in standard vehicle operation, monitored by a network of sensors. Without the correct adjustments, removing the DPF could lead to these sensors transmitting inaccurate data to the engine control unit, potentially causing issues. Our DPF filter removal service includes the essential software adjustments, ensuring your vehicle maintains optimal performance and remains compliant with emissions regulations, while reducing the need for frequent filter replacements. This not only enhances your vehicle's power and efficiency but also contributes to a smoother driving experience and a more environmentally responsible choice.

Max Mileage
Our locations sell a max mileage fuel additive that helps you get the most out of every mile. DPF max mileage helps burn soot faster and at lower temperatures, reducing your vehicle's emissions by 60%. With lower soot content, your engine will run smoother and longer between cleanings. Customers often see a longer engine life when making max mileage a part of their vehicle maintenance routine.
One ounce of max mileage works on every 25 gallons of fuel, and an entire 16oz bottle can last you over 3,000 miles of driving. Watch as fuel efficiency increases, allowing max mileage to more than pay for itself in the savings you'll receive at the gas pump. Talk to our professionals today to learn how investing in thorough cleaning, and DPF max mileage can make you eligible for our lifetime warranty program!

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
It will depend on what the manufacturer requires or recommends and will also depend on how your equipment is being used (highway driving differs hugely from city driving).
We believe a thorough DPF inspection involves a visual inspection, flow test, pin test and light test to ensure DPF filter integrity and that the filter has been returned as close as possible to its original factory condition.
It will depend on what the manufacturer requires or recommends and will also depend on how your equipment is being used (highway driving differs hugely from city driving).
Regular engine maintenance is largely the biggest factor in ensuring the best performance from the DPF. Restriction from dirty air filters, worn components etc. are all factors that will increase soot loading of the DPF. Low-ash engine oils are always a recommendation as they lower the residual ash deposit in the DPF through the regen process. There are some newer products on the market today that are known as FBC (Fuel Borne Catalyst) that significantly improve engine combustion and lower soot loading of the DPF.
The DPF service life can be limited several ways, we would recommend a mechanic should look at the coolant, look for oil leaks, failing fuel injectors and even dust in the air intake system.
Yes, see answer above. We believe that regular cleaning and servicing of the DPF filter does extend the overall life of the filter, will reduce the risk of filter failure, and will lower the risk of other engine component failure because of lower overall back pressure.
