**Expert Tuning**

Having received many calls over the past year asking about DPF removals, we have now brought this service in-house.

 For our DPF service we retain the original DPF box, minus the DPF brick, and remap the ECU to remove the ECU code. We are backed by one of the leading and most experienced DPF software removal companies and will only take on work for vehicles that have been tried and tested. As with our remaps we do not experiment on customer vehicles!

 The result is a vehicle permanently free from DPF issues that particularly arise in low daily mileage usage. Easier breathing improves power and MPG but to maximise the benefits we also offer a free power/MPG remap at the same time that we reprogram the ECU for the removed DPF.

 Optionally we can replace the DPF box with a straight through pipe section but, for the sake of standard appearance and costs we'd recommend the retention of the original box, albeit with the brick removed.

 Pricing varies according to model of engine so please contact us if you'd like more details. Generally speaking, costs are at least half those of a replacement DPF unit AND you eliminate your DPF problems for good.

 In the interest of full information, currently the MOT does not test for DPF installation and operation. As with any engine modifications this could change in the future, although we are not aware of any plans at present.

Garage have got back to me. New DPF needed + new ABS unit + cambelt.
Looking at £5000 or more.
I guess we won't be going to Cornwall on Wednesday then.

I would not use the dealer, it looks like they are about to rip you off, get it taken to another garage, the DPF will only need a forced Regen, or a fluid top up, the abs problem will just be a sensor, £30 at the most, the belt and adjuster can be changed for around £300

Any VAT reg gararge can do any waranty work

Once back on the road get the DPF deleted by the company in my other post
