01 / MOT REQUIREMENTS
A missing DPF can mean MOT failure.
Where a DPF was fitted when the vehicle was built, its absence results in an MOT failure. Missing, obviously modified or defective emissions equipment is a major defect.

YOUR DPF. THE LEGAL FACTS.
Official guidance explains why a functioning DPF matters, what MOT testers check and why DPF removal is usually unlawful for road use.
02 / ROAD LEGALITY
Removing a DPF can be illegal.
Government guidance states that DPF removal almost invariably makes a vehicle illegal for road use. Potential fines can reach £1,000 for a car or £2,500 for a light goods vehicle.
03 / MAINTENANCE
Regeneration helps manage soot.
DPFs capture harmful particles. Regeneration burns accumulated soot, while unsuccessful regeneration can lead to build-up, reduced performance and costly repairs.
