Garages across Ireland have found that one of the most effective remedies to DPF clogging issues is the LIQUI MOLY Diesel Particulate Filter Cleaner. This not only helps save customer money, but also opens up a great business opportunity for garages.  

This cleaning set allows clogged filters to be freed up again without having to remove them. The cleaning process requires 30 to 60 minutes and is significantly cheaper than installing a new filter.

Ibrahim Memis of LIQUI MOLY says, "By offering this service workshops can increase customer loyalty and help set themselves apart from their competitors. Once a customer has already experienced problems with a prematurely clogged DPF, they are open to accept this service at every inspection as preventative maintenance.”

Workshops can also offer customers LIQUI MOLY DPF Protect when they know the customer makes a lot of short trips. This is a fuel tank additive that reduces regeneration temperature meaning the process can take place on shorter trips.

Ibrahim also stresses the importance of correct oil choice. He says, "Cars with diesel particulate filters need so-called low SAPS motor oils. SAPS stands for sulphate ash, phosphorus and sulphur. These are precisely the substances that produce large quantities of ash and should be avoided for this reason. At www.liqui-moly.com we offer a free oil guide to help you be sure which oil is the right one for any certain vehicle.”
