Sounds interesting, how do you deal with the MOT? Tim

Had mine done 2 years ago by DMS. Big difference and well worth it. I find it particularly noticeable towards the top end of the Rev range. 50-70mph is the most impressive improvement. |

the DPF is still visible they just take the insides out and the test is just a visual at the moment but before I was having 3 mini services because of oil dilution when the car was going into its regen mode, now it doesn't do that cos the DPF is not there and no chance of throwing the crank shaft. I have four friends now who have had this problem and needed new engines, two of them being my fathers and sisters |

£550 for remap and deletes took nearly 9 hours to do |

I am very interested in getting my dpf removed deleted..got any details.....quite frankly being forced to as coming to 6th oil change in 2 years.... I am all for environment but this poor design is more danaging to environment... extract oil, transport oil, refine oil, make containers for packaging etc, dispose of used oil and filters. Ideally would go for plug in hybrid but live in terraced house with nonoff street parking so does not work for me..even nearest charging point is several minutes walk from home |

Will DPF removal pass the MOT? A DPF results in no smoke from the exhaust. Take out the DPF and you'll get some soot on acceleration. Any smoke will be a give away to the MOT tester and result in a fail. 2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders

mines passed twice and yes it will put out a bit of black smoke when you boot it also the exhaust is a lot louder you can hear it whistling when the turbo spins up and when the flap opens |

Without a DPF your car is illegal. I understand that it is invisible to the MOT tester as the body of the DPF is still visible, but surprised it’s passing the smoke test.

While on the subject of DPF...anyone had their DPF flash cleaned?.. if so did it make any difference on service intervals?
